2020 Democratic Primary Thread: Focus on House & Senate races

[Wargames]

Yeah, but where is the outreach to black men? I certainly don’t see it.

We get ignored a lot ...... we need more middle class black men to be taken serious. Which on the flip is easier said than done because the whole system is made to keep us from reaching the middle class.

 

[mastermind]

Nah it's about them being practical and putting winning over everything. Right now Biden is winning the electability argument. When Warren wins Iowa she will steal those voters. I don't see anything outlandish in her plans that black folks wouldn't be comfortable with.

Obama was polling behind Clinton with black voters back in 2007 as well. Well behind. Iowa changed everything for that campaign.

 

[Pressure]

At what point are we going to stop accusing politicians of not having policies towards black folk and then turn around and accuse them of pandering when they do?

 

[LurkMoar]

The majority of black people are not Uber liberals like Warren/Sanders. When they catch that major L during the southern primaries, they are going finally realize it .

When Hillary washed Bernie In the SC Primary and the rest of the south it was such a beautiful sight to see

I remember the Bernie bros on here facing that ether on here


Southern hospitality

This isn’t true. Black people are more left leaning on every issue than white people. Where do you guys come up with this stuff? Now if you’re trying to say that we are more conservative in a lot of the LGBTQ stuff then you’d have a point but again, we have voted Democrat for years consistently while not being fully on board. It was Obama who recognized transgenders. Didn’t hurt his standing at all. Most people just think those dudes are weird but vote Democrat anyway.

old black people are. besides beto tanking, no reason why Biden is still ahead other then old black people.

see how they keep exploiting fukking immigration laws?

theres no appeasing them.

how can you win for literally coming here illegally?

Trump is obviously a dikkhead but now to say Obama was bad too? You can't win!

This is why I'm so apathetic on this issue.

You new to this immigration ish? These critiques always existed from people who actually cared about the issue and were paying attention.

In 2016
Democrats lash out at Obama over immigration raids
"Some immigration advocates complain the push looks like a page out of Donald Trump's playbook"
Democrats lash out at Obama over immigration raids

This is from 2014

Black women are better organizers. They are ettergb activists. And they benefit from the womens movement in general.

But the Coli told me black men are worried about illegal immigrants and prison reform. Both of these have been addressed by the last 2 administrations.

some type of health craze?

Immigration will make or break the democrat chances, Especially in the south.

They're just repeating conservative talking points that aren't actually based on any actual policy proposals.

Joe Biden was Obama’s VP. It’s not that simple. The same reason black people backed swaggerless Al Gore.

When Trump gets reelected.
