St Bernie won't care for this, since he seems to think that a Latina running for office thinks she can't win if she runs because she's a Latina.

No, I haven't forgotten how rude, condescending, racist and sexist Grandpa McGrouchy Knickers was toward a young Latina woman who said she wanted to be the second Latina elected to the Senate:

Anytime you hear "identity politics," know that it means, "We white men know what's best for all of you stupid, uppity women and minorities, so sit down and shut up while we handle everything."
