Unless there's a candidate whos not afraid to specifically do something for black people, I'm not voting for them. And I damn sure not gonna trust a cac who in 10 years in office haven't advocated for a single piece of legislation on my behalf.
So just say you're not going to vote at all and leave it at that...
At least Bernie's plans indirectly benefit black people like legalizing weed so blacks don't face BS drug charges.
Breh, what has Bernie Sanders done for black people?
What has any politicians done for black people? You totally misunderstand why certain black people on here are voting for Sanders, but more importantly you continue to misunderstand that politicians walk the walk when MONEY is THROWN towards their way. This isn't black or white, looking through the the lens like that is too simple.
PS: Note I said,
"on paper."
Y'all are gung ho for this cac and he hasn't given a single promise as to what he'd do to help black people. Why are you giving him your vote when he hasn't even told black people what he'd do for us.
lol...Once more you make this black and white by making this solely about race. Again just state you're not voting at all.
The people on Coli who are voting for Bernie are not "gung ho" for him, he's just the LESSER EVIL. His plans which may not be exclusively for blacks, will indirectly HELP blacks. Income inequality anyone?
Bernie Sanders on Economic Inequality
See that is why we are voting for Bernie. Better him than the others. We'd rather him in the white house than the Clinton or godforsake freaking Trump. Lesser of the evils. Its not hard to grasp. Which is why I voted for Obama again(not a fan of Obama). Because I sure as hell did not want Romney to win.
Anyways past that point, FDR "New Deal" plan was not even a "black" exclusive plan, yet it surged almost all African-Americans into the middle class and helped fuel the civil rights movement. This is why I find your "buh buh, what has Berny done for black folks" annoying and tiring. Stop looking at crap solely by race. Think outside the box and research on how each politicians plan can
indirectly benefit blacks.
Of course I'm comparing him to Clinton. Sanders has been in the Senate for almost a decade and haven't done a damn thing for us. Just like the Clinton's. You still have black people saying Clinton had our backs when he was directly responsible for the mass incarceration of black men. Why do black people give their allegiance to Democrats? They get our vote every election cycle (local and national) and haven't done ANYTHING for us.
And yet another post full of hot air. And the bolded which is so obvious. Black people give their allegiance to the Democracts and leftist, because Republicans showed us the freaking door since the 40's/50's. I too am not even a big fan of the Democratic party, but even I have common sense to grasp that the Democratic party and liberals have been more beneficial than the Republicans/right towards African-Americans. What party are blacks suppose to go to? Fact is as of right now the left/liberals have been more beneficial according to blacks in America.
And you can't compare Bernie to the Clinton's, because we have not seen what he has done as president to make such bold similarities.
I told you I'm voting and you haven't given me a better option
Voting doesn't do shyt.
Ignore the fact that billionaires and corporations spend a lot of money to influence people to vote for their interests.
I'm a militant, I don't vote.
Yo, why are all the elected officials CACs who don't represent me?
Voting doesn't change anything, I'm a militant.
Wait, why is there all this legislation that harms my community?
