Our most activated and reliable voting block believes it's time to move on from Bernie

227. Denial runs deep

Do you really think that sanders will run in 2020 and if so do you really think that sanders will get any significant additional support from the African American, Latino or Jewish segments of the party? I am not going to re-litigate the 2016 primaries but I see little chance of sanders getting significant additional support from the groups.

Racial inequality is a real issue and sanders does not want to discuss this issue. sanders only wants to discuss his economic inequality issue and that will not work to help the real racial inequality issues that are of a major concern to some key groups in the Democratic base. sanders only cares about white working class rural voters. I call to your attention that many of the gains made in 2018 are due to increase turnout in voters other than rural white working class voters.

sanders claim that it is okay for members of his base to not vote for non-white candidates will come back to haunt him. Do you remember this thread? https://www.democraticunderground.com/100211400567 That comment will come up again as well the incident at the National Convention. Do you really think that sanders is more popular with African American voters than Congressman John Lewis? sanders refused to stop his "vetted" delegates from attacking Congressman John Lewis at the national convention. The Texas delegation shared a bus with the Georgia delegation and there were some pissed off Georgia delegates at the convention following this stunt.

Again I really doubt that sanders will run. I would love to see his tax returns which he will have to release to get onto the ballot in a number of key blue states. There are many strong democrats with long memories. I do love the fact that the new primary alignment will make Iowa and New Hampshire essentially meaningless in 2020. Two all white states that do not reflect the base of the Democratic party should not play a significant role in the Democratic Party selection process. See https://www.dailykos.com/stories/2018/12/19/1819917/-People-may-not-know-it-yet-but-Iowa-and-New-Hampshire-won-t-matter-in-2020

BTW, I love the attacks that the sanders bases are leveling against Senator Harris and Beto. These sanders supporters are really afraid of both Beto and Senator Harris. I wonder why so many sanders supporters are so afraid of Senator Harris and Beto?
