In reply to the discussion: Let me know how this "harass Black people into voting for Sanders" campaign is working for y'all [View all]NorthCarolina
(11,197 posts)and the Presidency. A man with a proven record of helping Americans at all levels, and of all colors, and that undeniably would do more to aid the black community, the white community, the hispanic community, all communities. Sorry if their level of excitement and enthusiasm rubs you in the wrong way.
That Sanders supporters are apparently capable of "making you hate him" doesn't bode well for your claim that you "used to like him". He has no control over what his supporters say, and yet you threaten that whether or not you continue to "like him" hinges on how you perceive his supporters.
His record on issues related to the black community are extensive and well documented. I know the push is currently "we don't care what he did 40 years ago", but that is where the argument falls apart, for it is truly an accurate "measure of the man". If your hopes for the black community reside with the Goldwater girl, good luck with that.
