Just a word or two about Bernie and civil rights/social justice

[MineralMan]

30. No question. His record is excellent on these issues.

He needs to say that and speak about social justice and civil rights issues frequently while campaigning, though. Most voters will not study a candidate's voting history or record. They simply will not. Right now, he's not being a Senator. He's being a primary candidate for the Democratic nomination.

During the campaign, he has to stress things that are of concern to primary voters. If there are complaints that he is not talking enough about social justice and civil rights, he needs to correct that in his speeches and remarks. It's a campaign, and what he says during the campaign is what people will know. Voters will not go study his voting record.

Campaigners must campaign on the issues that are of importance to people who might vote for him. That's job one.
