And again, a non-answer to the question of what has Bernie done for civil rights since the 1960s. Bernie didn't care about civil rights, not since then, and not now.
And his supporters gleefully attacking a Black woman just proves it.
1. She’s not black
2. Bernie has been a consistent advocate for the poor and downtrodden for decades.
Stop making it about race, which one of your favorite politicians can lay claim to that?

Hillary? Booker? Bloomberg? Obama?
Come on.
1. You don't get the right to define Black for a woman who grew up identifying as a Black person and who attended an HBCU
2. That is EXACTLY the point -"the downtrodden" ignores the existence of racism. Rich Black people also face racism and the steadfast denial of that is precisely why Bernie lost in 2016 and why he will lose again. Black women are the base of the Democratic party and they will not work for and vote for someone who ignores their existence and their reality.
And of course it's not all about race, but to pretend it's not about race at all is asinine in today's America

No they’re not, the base of the democrats are rich white suburban voters.
And no, you don’t get to choose to be AA, you either are or you’re not.
And Bernie does focus on racism, you are blinded by democrats who don’t care about racism or poverty.
Yes people like free ****, until they’re told how much it will cost them. We can not elect someone who will go to war against the private sector. Growth/capital investment will come to a halt, people will lose their jobs, the market will tank, cost of living will sky rocket. Government central planning was rendered a failed ideology last century, we can not make the same mistakes of the past we have 3% growth and unemployment with rising wages and low inflation why would any sane person want to reverse course? Not smart.

The problem with your argument is that she is african american. You want to argument that you have to be a descendant of a slave to be Black/African American, but that isnt true.

And as many times as you use the phrase, "identity politics", you should have just stayed away from this subject. If you have ever told a black person that their problems dont matter because of their "identity" as you have by simply using that phrase, then you and those on your side dont care.
basically telling black people to sit back, be quiet and wait for your crumbs.

This is insane:
1. Neither of her parents are of African origin. She is not African American
2. You're full of it, blacks don't support the Hillary/Kamala axis that locks them up, grow up. Your dedication to the state and democratic party is sickening.
I'm a liberal and I say "no thanks" to Bernie, Joe Biden and Hillary Clinton. Out with the old guard and geezers. I want to vote for someone in their 40's or 50's, thanks. Time for new blood.
