Bernie proved he's not a "whites-only" candidate today.

Carried Latinos. Made major inroads among AA voters.

The myths that "Bernie doesn't think racism matters" and "Bernie doesn't get it" are dying out.

HRC was supposed to win by thirty points here when we started.

Given the pro-HRC bias of the press in the primaries, they wouldn't overstate Bernie's support in any group.
