And, she became emotional.

The others have not only not learned and said their names they are probably confused by her emotion.

The scene where the anchorman demonstrates how he can become slighlty teary eyed and trembling lip on cue?

I am surprised you didn't go in the other direction. In 2008 when she became emotional after winning NH an Obama spokesman said she got emotional because she was having a bad hair day.

"In Ohio, they are obsessed and Hillary is going to town on it, because she knows Ohio's the only place they can win. She is a monster, too – that is off the record – she is stooping to anything. Here, it looks like desperation. I hope it looks like desperation there, too. You just look at her and think, 'Ergh'. But if you are poor and she is telling you some story about how Obama is going to take your job away, maybe it will be more effective. The amount of deceit she has put forward is really unattractive."

"okay now when you start to mention specific cases, be sure to let your voice tremble ever so slightly, lower the volume, and now act like your trying to control the outburst of emotion when you say the same thing you said 50 times before."

Seriously though, you did see the camera catch a woman in the audience tearing up?

But he refused to make it known and try to get brownie points for it. Hillary used them to try to get black votes. Bernie thought poc were smarter than to fall for that.

Huge mistake by Sanders if he didn't. But his campaign is pretty much characterized my missteps all over the BLM issues. He's a good man and I know his heart is in the right place. His staff should be shot.

They want this issues raised, they want it solved. There is nothing wrong with saying their names, and talking about it.

The meeting for political gain. Maybe they do want those names said but you will not be hearing them at every event except maybe by Hillary who would use it for her own political aspirationsm

Bernie is OK. Unless it's about Paris. Then his staff blows it and doesn't anticipate the shift in focus to the attack and rehearse him for it.
