Bernie Sanders and the Peter Principle

[Kind of Blue]

221. Thinking at this point this is a shell game

I can't really determine who bothers me more.

I don't know where to start with the article other than to rehash stuff that's been explained to death. But what really struck me was how classic Bernie is/was(?) in playing the Rules of Engagement, #11 to be exact when he said and is in bold, "I have a long history in fighting for civil rights. I understand that many people in the African-American community may not understand that." And, "Unfortunately, instead of pointing that out, Sanders decided to tell Stephanopoulos that black voters would love him if they just understood things better."

Or as #11 states: To suggest my behavior had a racist impact is to have misunderstood me. You will need to allow me to explain until you can acknowledge that it was your misunderstanding.

Bernie says, and I feel he believes this now, "You should not be basing your politics based on your color. What you should be basing your politics on is, how is your family doing?"

How is my family doing? Okay for the most part except for the past intense 5 years of police terror, and the last 40 years of run of the mill harrassment. I wish he and his virulent supporters could accept, It's supremacy, stupid. But that's not what he's propped up to do, IMO.
