It's so......ironic?.......that black people support the wife of the guy who was directly responsible for the rise in black incarceration in the 90's and beyond.

That's about as "blind" as "loyalty" gets.

I honestly don't think Sanders had much of a chance, even with all of the deceptive practices of D-Wass and the DNC. But there's always the chance that Hillary will drop dead in the next 10 months from her mounting health issues.

Saw great line earlier. When asked about millennial voters in South Carolina a South Carolinian said, "Millennials? We call them Republicans."

And Obama II

Those who thrive on class warfare, like FDR and Obama, seem to have insurmountable advantages. They can divide America, demonize the rich, and fish for votes among the middle-class and poor.

But, Hillary has not learned that as FDR and Obama have discovered, when you penalize the rich, they shelter their wealth, or take it elsewhere. That makes an already depressed economy even more stagnant and if she is elected we'll have more of the same.

Bernie is done. The majority of the Democratic party these days consists of minorities.

Hillary will jump to a huge lead in delegates after Super Tuesday.
