I don't see him taking credit for black turnout in Alabama.

Anyway I think Democrats don't need Benie as much as his supporters claim, Democrats can still win election without his help or adopting his platform.

Glad I can look forward to many more years of lip service and random abandonment and admonishments from corporate democrats.

I am beginning to increasingly think that you can't appeal to them. Obama's presidency made white people crazier about race than they previously were, and more openly crazy at that.

But setting aside your point (and I'm not against trying to appeal to them as well, though I think the better strategy is to energize the 35% of white voters that you do have and all of your minority voters to come out and vote), I was just pointing out that saying that the WWC drove the election doesn't hold up. Why not say that white women drove the election? White men? White college-educated voters? They're all large subsets of white voters?

This is my issue with the "appeal to WWC" approach. They're still white, and whiteness means more to them than anything else any pol can offer. White people in general, across educational, gender, and class lines, voted for Trump.

The reason why WWC's are said to have driven the election is because many of them were white working class democrats and that's where the biggest most unpredictable change happened. I agree white racism is at an all time high but I don't think all WWC's who voted for Trump were people with white nationalist leanings. A lot of them were people who were tired of NAFTA, globalization, and many of the issues that populist progressives have advocated against but have been ignored by the establishment Dems.

Why does napoleon respond to debates with tweets?


Do you have a brain of your own?

Of course, you all hate it when I say it, so I prefer to show you that theres a community of thought that you all haven't encountered, and its VERY popular.

@Dominic Brehetto this is why I post tweets, you dumbass:





Soledad O'Brien with the question REAL democrats want to know.

All this talk about the people who helped Jones, and NONE of the fukking opportunity to speak to them.


This is to show you dweebs that you are INCREDIBLY tone deaf when it comes to actual political communities

Do you see the retweets and likes on that?

Pay attention.

People are tired of Bernie's bullshyt of simultaneously shytting on Democrats, taking credit for democrat victories, then refusing to help or even join.

Not to mention taking all the air in the fukking room while doing nothing with his Senate seat.

He is skeptical of the russia investigation.

he is skeptical of punishing Trump.

I mean what good is he other than fence riding when we need him and showing up late when we don't?

(ironically you all will ignore my posts warning in fall of 2015 that a rising right wing movement will challenge Hillary and may win. That goes for you too @the cac mamba )

Posting tweets on a message board from the twitter accounts of users from the same message board you're posting them on is your definition of a broad popular opinion?

:picard:

Sweet Jesus. The one and only friend you had in high school would be ashamed to say he knew you if he saw this shyt.

He's definitely not taking credit. Bernie for years and years has talked about a political revolution and he always is talking about the different groups that need to get engage in the political process. It's not something he came up with in 2016.

You can criticize Bernie's failures of trying to get the black vote in a presidential primary last year. All I'm seeing in that statement is a guy who's happy the Senate gain an ally for his caucus in the fight against the agenda of an extreme right wing GOP.


I disagree. I see a bitter b*stard who can’t give credit where it is due. Notice the large paragraphs devoted to the newly elected mayor, like he was critical to the success in the election. It’s sleight of hand.

But then, I am willing to admit that I see Bernie as an opportunist and not the white saviour most people make him out to be.

and who makes up most white people? the 'working class'

all you did was prove his point :dead:

fukk that. The appeal to the white working class has been a dog whistle for years. Eventually it’s was subtly worked into mainstream America, but it is still a dog whistle. Bernie just figured out how to use it to his advantage.

Guess what, nearly all PoC are working fukking class. They never get any acknowledgement for being working class.

Duplicity and hypocrisy at it’s finest.
