It's okay not to say something about a topic you don't know about. But I literally laughed at the bold because in my opinion Chicago has more BLM, black nationalist supporting people than any other major metropolitan area in the country with a black population over 15%.

Yeah, I was referring to the White population who would need to support him to win. Chicago White liberals are not that type of liberal, on the whole.

I know an Alderman and some other political sorts of black Chicagoans and black Chicagoans in particular are pretty involved in their communities. Also a majority of black people in Chicago are not involved in crime nor are they poor/poverty stricken.

Chicago has the eighth highest murder rate in the nation. Its not first, but its not far off. I hear you, but Chicago's reputation precedes it.
