Got it.
I think you want to distract from that with a pissing contest, and again, I'm not obligated to join. You seem to have some of the same issues on display in that event with She the People: the assumption that you direct the conversation, and get very frustrated when others don't fall in line and do so.
Bernie could not or would not answer a basic question about what he would do as POTUS about violent white supremacist groups. He got irritated when they expressed frustration, and somehow thought dropping MLKs name as a reason he should not have to answer would maybe shame them into silence. It didn't work, and his WOC surrogate has been sent out to try to finish shaming them, in a further misguided attempt to detract from the fact that he could not answer questions from WOC about issues concerning WOC at a confernence for WOC where they were having a Candidate forum.
The audience was not happy, and when he was told that wasn't an answer, he fired back that he did something decades ago that black people should like so get off his back about what he would do as POTUS.
And now Bernie sent his WOC campaign manager to blast WOC, because if he said those same things, his campaign would be over.
He stepped in it, and instead of saying he stepped in it, and wiping it off, he's tracking it all over the house. Just accept that, and you have far more credibility.
primary today, I would vote for: Joe Biden
