In reply to the discussion: Bernie Sanders remains one of Americas most popular politicians [View all]JHan
(10,173 posts)...any cursory look at TheRoot after the elections when Sanders went on his WWC/identity politics spiel would tell you how a lot of us felt about it and continue to feel about it..
You also must know that there are no simple take aways from the data you're sharing :I saw first hand how propaganda and disinformation affected a lot of millennials, being millennial myself. It was a clusterfuck pushed by the usual forces which seek to fracture the democratic party. Fact is younger people don't engage in the political process and should, older folks do - does that mean somehow that older blacks in the Democratic party are worth nothing and their opinion doesn't count? What's the point of it?
And this isn't about "refighting the primaries" , it's about completely ignoring the fact that it was the dem base that supported Hillary which is why she got the nomination. When the claim is made that Sanders was the "People's choice" I will challenge that assertion because it's insulting as fk.
