Bernie has to do a better job reaching people of color, or he'll be a non-factor in states like Georgia. That's simply a fact.

(11,366 posts)who I won't name, keep saying he's not.
I rather suspect these groups have been co-opted by Clinton, who has actually never done much for PoC when compared to Sanders.
It's "optics," unfortunately.

(9,822 posts)There's still time to figure it out and turn it around.

(99,710 posts)Peach State Democrats strike me as sagacious. If you are recommending they need re-education I would demur.
Ron Green
(9,822 posts)different this time; the numbers from this polling suggest they aren't ready. If this different thing is not accomplished, I believe the consequences are too dire from which to recover.

Ron Green
(9,822 posts)you don't know what I am talking about.
okasha
(11,573 posts)and I know what is riding on the outcome of this election. We cannot afford another Republican President.

Oh, wait.....

(12,655 posts)has the backing of corporate tax cheats, won't take a position on keystone or tpp, refuses to back 15$ minimum wage, and is now under the spotlight because she couldn't even follow simple email rules as sos.
you're right, it's a slam dunk..what was i thinking??
Ron Green
(9,822 posts)much too close, in my view.

(11,573 posts)Georgia is doing just fine thank you. (I strongly suggest you stop patronizing people of color on this board.)
Ron Green
(9,822 posts)reject the corrupt politics of the past (including the Clintons), we are going beyond a point of no return. And it's probably this election cycle.

(30,481 posts)Love Hillary and Biden. She probably sent him a text. "You're a big fucking deal. "
If Sanders thinks he has a chance, he better look in the rear view. At 1% O'Malley is closer to striking distance on Sanders than anyone to Clinton.
