What bias against Bernie?
Super Tuesday comes down to Sanders vs Biden ...
- Thread starter blackpepper
- Start date
I don't agree with you, but you do make me laugh.
?
My grandkids will never vote for a black president again
Lmbaoooooo
I know exactly what you are talking about, and once again sounding like arrogant Bernie Sanders, isn't going to get him the win.
Here's what you don't understand. A great majority of this country (including the dem party) leans center, to center right.
Bernie lost big on Super Tuesday, and his people didn't show up for him, but you want Biden to lose votes, for the crowd that didn't show up for Sanders. A group that thus far has been shown to be unreliable? That doesn't make sense.
Plus there will be enough folks who support Bernie, that will easily (even if they have to hold their nose like many of us will do) vote for Biden.
I can't stand Cory Booker, but if his fruity ass was the nominee, I'd vote for him over Trump with no problem. This I believe is where a lot of people are after these Trump and republican fuckery years.
HERE'S WHAT THEY THINK ABOUT YOU
The devil is in the details. One has to wonder what this mutherfucker is really up to.
Then the fact that you have these ultra rich mutherfuckers just playing chess with everybody below them being pawns.
Spending hundreds of millions of dollars like it's pocket change.
Accurate ass statement
The amount of people that voted on Tuesday versus the previous Super Tuesday in 2016 was huge.
It is a combination of Billary not running and Chump’s fuckery bringing people to the polls.
Come November, I honestly don’t think Biden will need Bernie’s voters. Chump has stirred up enough reason to get people involved this year. Plus Billary isn’t keeping them home.

It was huge because there were states that used to be caucus states that switch to a primary system. Remember Hillary won most of the primary states (large groups of people) and Sanders won most of the caucus states (smaller group of people ).
They will. People have been voting for so-called black Presidents in the United States of America since Thomas Jefferson, the original.
Ok, I knew I'd find the take on Warren in here.
You said this before she dropped out and didn't back the true progressive. A good call that will be overlooked. Bitch is just a politician who became progressive for votes. She now is playing politics again. Fake as fuck.
The non-endorsement is the evidence.This ain't hard bitch. If you were really about all that shit you talked, backing Bernie is automatic. If it was for political theater to get power, we end up here.
you probably should have made another post if you needed a soapbox.. what I said had nothing to do with sounding like "arrogant Bernie". and I'm suggesting ways for Biden to GAIN votes.. just ask Hillary what happened when Bernie people people take their ball and go home..Biden has been on the fence about a lot of shit from reparations to health care to weed legalization..He needs to clean up his message. Hell either one of them will most likely lose to Trump but Biden don't stand a chance without some support from the Bernie people.
What if republicans find a reason to vote republican come November? What happens if the republicans democrats are expecting to vote for them turn and give the house back to the republicans?
I don’t trust republicans
We see you.Id vote for Trump over Cory
We are not in 2016 and voters are in a different mood than they were then. Plus there is no third party candidate of note this time around. Once again you are saying that Biden should risk losing the people already on his side, just to appeal to folks that have proven to be unreliable.

Bernie Sanders would be the most ‘godless’ president since Jefferson

Once upon a time, Bernie Sanders would have had another political vulnerability besides his socialism — namely, his atheism.
In 2016, a Democratic National Committee staffer had to apologize after the WikiLeaks hack exposed an email he wrote that suggested using Bernie’s atheism against him in the primary.
This year, Bernie’s religion — or lack of it — has barely made a ripple or even occasioned any comment. It used to be expected that serious presidential candidates would have religious faith and discuss it, in keeping with the religious coloration of the country they sought to govern. Just as the taboo against openly socialist candidates has given way, so has the old norm about religiosity eroded nearly to the vanishing point.
Sanders, a secular Jew, doesn’t call himself an atheist. The way he puts it is that he isn’t “actively involved in organized religion,” and that he believes in God, just not in a traditional matter. “To me,” he has said of his religion, “it means that all of us are connected, all of life is connected and that we are all tied together.”
Asked by Jimmy Kimmel whether he believes in God, he said, “I am what I am. And what I believe in, and what my spirituality is about, is that we’re all in this together.”
Functionally, this means his religion is indistinguishable from the vision of solidarity undergirding his socialist politics.
Indeed, the connection to Israel that Sanders touts to prove that he isn’t anti-Israel had much more to do with a political commitment than a religious one.
He lived for a time on a kibbutz in 1963 as a guest of a secular, socialist youth movement. According to the New York Times, the kibbutz “saw the Soviet Union as a model and often flew the red flag at outdoor events.” Sanders told a publication called Jewish Currents that “it was there that I saw and experienced for myself many of the progressive values upon which Israel was founded.”
His brother said of Bernie in a 2016 Washington Post interview that “he is quite substantially not religious.”
This makes Sanders an outlier in American life, but less of one than he used to be. According to the Pew Research Center, 26 percent of Americans says they are atheist, agnostic or “nothing in particular,” up from 17 percent in 2009. The growth of the religiously unaffiliated can be seen across all demographic groups and regions but is especially pronounced among young people who are, of course, disproportionately Bernie supporters.

Only 35 percent of millennials attend religious services weekly or once or twice a month, while 64 percent attend a few times a year, seldom or never.
The nonreligious are Bernie’s base. A Pew survey in January found that Joe Biden’s most supportive religious group was black Protestants at 44 percent followed by white Catholics and white evangelicals at 37 percent each. Bernie’s best groups were agnostics (36 percent), atheists (30) and the unaffiliated (28).
In New Hampshire, Sanders lost to Amy Klobuchar and Pete Buttigieg among voters who attend religious services once a week or more and won among voters who never attend. Bernie didn’t have many bright spots in South Carolina, except beating Biden soundly among voters who never attend church, 36-24 percent.
There is no rule that occupants of the White House have to be believers, or Thomas Jefferson never would have been president. But presidential religiosity has advantages. Bill Clinton used it to signal to otherwise politically hostile parts of the country that he understood their values. It fortified George W. Bush under incredible pressure during the war on terror. Barack Obama tapped the rhetorical power of church oratory.
The Sanders phenomenon is another indication of the weakening of American exceptionalism. When the social scientist Seymour Martin Lipset wrote about American exceptionalism decades ago, he underlined religiosity and resistance to socialism. If he captures the Democratic nomination, Bernie Sanders will test how much either still matters or applies.

Health-Insurance Stocks Are the Real Super Tuesday Winners
Former Vice President Joe Biden outperformed expectations in key primary states, setting up a rally in the stocks of the health-insurance companies threatened by Sen. Bernie Sanders’ Medicare for All plan.
Hope soWe see you.
Guess he isnt counting the current atheist in the white house.
black women turnout isnt going to determine if Biden wins or not; i really dont know why people keep saying this; black women voted for Hillary and trump still won....
And we ignore you.
The election is determine by independents and white suburban women. Hilary Clinton had 91% of the black women and still lost. Then you have the far left progressives and the Bernie Bros so take off about 15% of the Democratic that will stay home.
Exactly.....real talk most white people are stupid. Shit is mad annoying.....
