Tim Wise:
Exactly - he put it into words for me.
Sanders is not facing an a racist attack from Trump here - and she shouldn't be diminishing the experience of Black Americans (such as myself) who have been told to 'go back to Africa' by racists in their life.
These two are not equal.
Once again - Sanders needs to reign in his spokespeople. She's being insulting to those of us who have no affinity to Africa - we are AMERICANS who are black and are sick and tired of the bullshit. We know PRECISELY what birthers were doing - and she should be running from any analogies to it.
primary today, I would vote for: Joe Biden
