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

171. He did more than simply join the March on Washington, but you know that.

He chained himself to black protestors in sit-ins, was beaten up by police and arrested. For the black community. C'mon, admit it: putting himself in harm's way for a fight that wasn't his own but one he believed in was extraordinary. His march with MLK didn't take nearly as much selflessness as that, but give him some freaking credit. You don't have to consider him some kind of Civil Rights luminary. But don't act like what he did was insignificant or un-noteworthy. Far from it.

And who care that it was FIFTY YEARS AGO? The time period is a solid metaphor that the man puts his money where his mouth is. No one here could possibly front that Hillary Clinton was a civil rights savior because she stood for somebody who opposed civil rights. But, I guess that was FIFTY YEARS AGO and we all know how much she likes to change her tune. Like she so adamantly opposed marriage equality only FOURTEEN YEARS AGO, only to flip eleven years later. I guess you're OK with your candidate flipping from one extreme end of the spectrum to the other. Maybe you're a really trusting person, and I admire that. But as for me, I prefer my candidate to have stable, reliable stances that reflect liberal values. I guess you don't. Oh well.
