(24,544 posts)is that it wasn't like he gave some ringing endorsement of Sanders. He just said what most people have been saying for a while. That Sanders has a great record on minority issues. That was it.
But this same crowd that has shit on that man -- and I guess were FEVERISHLY hoping we'd forgotten that -- couldn't run to lick his face hard enough. We called this crap WEEKS ago. We noted over and over again in this forum that Sanders' minority support was so low that any black or brown person that endorsed him would be waved around here like a flag. No endorsement would be too small or insignificant.
But even I didn't realize the depths these folks would go to. Booker endorsed Hillary, said something vaguely nice about Sanders and these folks still acted like he called the man the second coming of Jesus. Oh Lordy...
