that he spoke about was how Trump thrives on hate, loves to divide our nation by the color of their skin, religion, sexual orientation, land of origin etc. and then asked the audience to look around at other people that didn't look like them and asked if they were willing to fight for those people as much as they would fight for themselves!?

It brought the house down!

Trump is a scumbag there is no doubt about that, he thrives on division, I'm just thankful Democrats aren't like him.

If I were to vote in a presidential
primary today, I would vote for: Undecided

Bernie drew 10, 140 people to tonight's rally in Minneapolis ritapria Nov 2019 #4

That is wonderful! sheshe2 Nov 2019 #5

A few weeks ago he drew a virtually all-white crowd at a school that is 83% black. And then.... George II Nov 2019 #7

I did not listen to the video. sheshe2 Nov 2019 #8

If "Sanders Rises in Polls Connects With Black Voters" and it's according to Ms. Gray.... George II Nov 2019 #10

Not connecting or rising. sheshe2 Nov 2019 #13

Me TOO! sheshe2 Nov 2019 #42

I read that recently when asked specific questions pertaining to black communities' concerns emmaverybo Nov 2019 #9

Well we saw him at "She The People" back in the spring..... George II Nov 2019 #12

Bernie was the top polling candidate ritapria Nov 2019 #17

That's where he was asked about childcare and talked healthcare for two and a half minutes emmaverybo Nov 2019 #18

Yes, that forum. I didn't see the video but heard about it - did someone explain the difference? George II Nov 2019 #20

Bernie misheard the question and still got several rounds of applause while Uncle Joe Nov 2019 #22

He "misheard" the question? George II Nov 2019 #25

I thought my statement was clear, did you misread it? Uncle Joe Nov 2019 #26

Your statement was clear, but it was incorrect.... George II Nov 2019 #29

Obviously you're not hard of hearing, look at Bernie's body language, Uncle Joe Nov 2019 #30

That's his usual posture. Watch him walking around the stage, same posture, nothing different.... George II Nov 2019 #34

No, if you view the video on your link you can see him visibly lean forward as Uncle Joe Nov 2019 #35

That's what he ALWAYS does. I can see this is going nowhere...good night. George II Nov 2019 #38

Happened at "She" too. They had to,kinda translate it for him. Could be hearing aid time. Seriously, emmaverybo Nov 2019 #28

Why doesn't Bernie get a hearing aid? TexasTowelie Nov 2019 #32

I believe he will but hearing loss can sneak up on you. I'm hard of hearing as well Uncle Joe Nov 2019 #33

So Bernie is ignoring the obvious? TexasTowelie Nov 2019 #40

Did you not read my final sentence? Uncle Joe Nov 2019 #41

Considering that one of the doubts about Bernie this primary has been about his age, TexasTowelie Nov 2019 #43

The moderator in this case was reading face down so Bernie couldn't see his lips. Uncle Joe Nov 2019 #44

I don't share your confidence. TexasTowelie Nov 2019 #45

Well everyone is entitled to their own opinion, I suppose time will be the judge. Uncle Joe Nov 2019 #46

Because he doesn't need one. George II Nov 2019 #39

What poll was that, I didn't see it. George II Nov 2019 #19

He is barely mentioned here at The Des Moines Register. sheshe2 Nov 2019 #24

Thanks for posting this sheshe2. Booker is soooo right, Sad it even has to be said. Kamala emmaverybo Nov 2019 #31

I wish they were polling better. sheshe2 Nov 2019 #36
