Sanders quiets his critics as he becomes a 2020 front-runner

69. InA, Sanders CAN'T unite with POC because

he's a populist leader. Oh, sure, many of his left-wing faction would probably welcome it, but his populist followers are different. Even many of those from the left tend to have socially conservative feelings, while the conservative pops he's trying to draw away from Trump...!

But in any case, our POC bloc requires more of any candidate they'll endorse than he can give without driving away other support. Remember, he's trying to draw a lot of populists falling away from their disappointing leader on the right in order to create a majority coalition, and POC are only 13.3% of the population. Sadly, socially conservative whites outnumber them probably close to 3:1.
