Hillary Clinton is white. They didn't vote for her. I'm sorry, but you don't get it.
no, you seem not to get it. her being the same race has nothing to do with what they identified with.
she's campaigning on a platform that's about inclusiveness of the diver dem coalition, many of whom's issues seemed to be preoccupying dems - gay rights, immigration reform, etc - while also not spending time with them
trump used dog whistle racial polictics while making promises to them that excluded minorities...his rhetoric was 100% about restoring the old days of the white man having all the options. you're being dishonest to ignore their stances and pretend race should've been some equalizer
Nope. Bernie is the most popular Dem candidate among URM.
do you just make shyt up? he may have made inroads with young URM (the average young person doesn't vote anyway), but with black voters, there definitely is a segment not fukking with him due to his reluctance to talk specifics in helping blacks. and then the 55 and up black folks will definitely vote biden or kamala. blacks 30-50 will likely be all over the board, except down south where they'll likely be for biden, or whoever seems stronger between kamala and booker. again, your outsider status really doesn't understand the black community.
i can't speak for where latinos fall...but even a quick google search reveals
Black Voters Like Bernie Sanders Just Fine — They Just Might Like Other Candidates More

But in this poll, Sanders’s support is driven by voters ages 18 to 44, more so than any other candidate in the race right now. The older, and wealthier, the voter gets, the less interested they are in Sanders. These results are consistent with five national polls between November 2018 and March 2019 — and with exit polls from 2016 primaries.
“It’s younger. It’s more diverse. It’s people of color,” Joshua Ulibarri, a partner with the Democratic research firm Lake Research Partners, said of Sanders’s coalition. “It’s still pretty Anglo, [but] he has made some inroads with African Americans.”
Among those 18 to 24 years of age, 59 percent supported Sanders. But in the 65-plus age range, his support dropped 10 points, to 49 percent.

^^^ this one brings up good points about social conservatism of minority dem voters (which is also an issue for "heartland" american voters). thus far dems have had the ability to dance around tentpole issues - jobs/min wage, debt, education, health care, but once we get into people having to flush out their platform, various stances on social issues will further split voters.
he has a lot of work to do, don't conflate early leads due to name recognition/popularity with how people will break once the real campaigning starts. if you can't win a significant portion of the black vote and older dem vote (who are more conservative...and the base that participates more highly in primaries)...you're not winning the nomination. yall are being too quick to crown dude when we're pretty m
These people voted for Obama before voting for Trump. They just want change. Obama offered that, McCain did not. Trump offered that, Hillary did not. Bernie offers that, Trump does not, Biden does not, Beto does not, Copmala does not, Pete Booty Guy does not, and so on.
they voted obama because they were voting dem, their support of him declined in the second run and clearly declined again during hilary, lasting demographic shifts in political parties isn't something new....blacks shifted from repub to dem, white southerners from dem to repub, asians from repub/split to dem. yall are funny to act like a wave of a wand reverses course. if you activate white nationalism within a segment of voters, that alone will >>>>> policy anyday...white women made this astoundingly clear with their 2016 vote.
