They can see the danger that 4 more years of Trump means. I'm disappointed that too many of my fellow white voters aren't as clear-eyed.

I still remember that one time that BS held a rally in an historically "black church" auditorium/multi-purpose hall... in a majority black city (North Charleston, SC)... in a predominantly black neighborhood and those in attendance make it look like he was in lily-white Vermont. Actually, the ethnic diversity of the people that attended that rally were MORE WHITE than Vermont.

It was clear to me then (and it's clear to me now) that AA and POC voters aren't buying what he's selling. AA and POC voters are very loyal to the Democratic party and are proud to be Democrats. I honestly don't know how anyone expects to receive votes from loyal and stalwart livelong Democrats when they have such a despicable reputation of denigrating and smearing Democrats and the Democratic party with so many attacks and lies.

Slagged Biden non-stop. That's when they trotted out 'he supported bussing,' 'he put everybody in jail,' and the most libelous 'he said desegregation would lead to racial jungles - he meant I hate black people.' Of course he never said that, the real version of what he said was available online, anyone could find it, I saved it. LOL But they persisted. Bernie went from 20% of the black vote to 15%.

#ilovebernie because he allowed Martin Luther King to march with him on Selma. That's where Bernie is at now.

Not downplaying the black vote but the Democrats always get the black vote.

Who's leading among independents, the people we need to vote for us but don't always do so?

I mean everyone is going on about how Biden will be saved by the black vote in South Carolina.

But S. Carolina hasnt' voted for a Democrat for President since Jimmy Carter.

So are we really being saved?

I don't see many older black voters turning in out in big numbers for Obama hating Bernie Sanders.

And about South Carolina, it's referring to the primary.
