Why did Sanders wait until we have a black president to cast blame and start his "revolution"?

[DAngelo136]

29. I'm calling bullshit!

"If Sanders wanted to change the Democratic Party, why didn't he start his revolution back in 2000 when black voters were being disenfranchised? Why wait now to get angry after the First Black President is in the White House? He wasn't this angry when Bush or Clinton was in office. Yeah, he may have yelled and screamed, but he waits until we have a black president, blames that president, and NOW at 74 years old, he wants to start a revolution?? Get the fuck out of here!"

You must have been asleep, pal. A revolution was happening under your feet; you just didn't know it.

Let's not forget THIS GUY:


And this guy:


It's really hard to lead a revolution when you're the ONLY Socialist in the Congress. It wasn't that long ago being a "Socialist" was a dirty word. Remember, there were such things as "Reagan Democrats" and "Blue Dog Democrats" roaming the land. So the Congress was de facto conservative in BOTH parties.

As for Hillary, read her very impassioned and well reasoned address on the Senate floor on the Authorization of Force that gave Bush the OK for the Iraq War. But note, she voted yes anyway. Kucinich, being consistent, didn't. Kucinich voted his conscience; Hillary voted her campaign.

Here are the 21 Senators who saw through Bush's bullcrap and voted against the resolution:
Daniel Akaka (D-HI)
Jeff Bingaman (D-NM)
Barbara Boxer (D-CA)
Robert Byrd (D-WV)
Lincoln Chafee (R-RI)
Kent Conrad (D-ND)
Jon Corzine (D-NJ)
Mark Dayton (D-MN)
Richard Durbin (D-IL)
Russell Feingold (D-WI)
Robert Graham (D-FL)
Daniel Inouye (D-HI)
James Jeffords (I-VT)
Edward Kennedy (D-MA)
Patrick Leahy (D-VT)
Carl Levin (D-MI)
Barbara Mikulski (D-MD)
Patty Murray (D-WA)
Jack Reed (D-RI)
Paul Sarbanes (D-MD)
Debbie Stabenow (D-MI)
Paul Wellstone (D-MN)
Ron Wyden (D-OR)

By the way, when Sanders was in the House of Representatives; he voted 'no'

Hillary's problem has always been, she's put politics ahead of principle. She doesn't run to win; she runs not to lose.
She's so afraid of losing Conservative votes, she loses her base. That's how, as a presumptive favorite, she lost to a previously unknown Barack Obama. All he did was say "Hey, I wouldn't have voted for that." and caught on. After that, we saw Hillary stumble, bumble and lose. She's the Tony Romo of politics; she's good when it's easy but when it counts, she'll do something that will snatch defeat from the jaws of victory. Don't believe me? Ask Mayor Bill DiBlasio
