That number is down to 10% after yesterday. That isn't the point of inviting the candidates though. The point is inviting politicians to see if they will address the needs of the black community as it is represented in the SOTBU conference. Unfortunately for Tavis, he hasn't realized that he and his other speakers do not actually represent the black community and so days after his conference is over, so is his mandate and ability to act. The shit is a fucking joke.
The fact Hillary wants to attend is proof positive it is a joke. Watch and see who asks her about the numerous racial games her campaign has played.
Tavis needs to realize he isn't MLK and Hillary isn't Johnson. Getting a powerless Washington shill on board for your powerless convention of bullshitters(most not all) is a colossal waste of fucking time.
