Jennifer Epps-Addison is on MSNBC right now talking about Bernie.

She is a young Black woman from the Center for Popular Democracy saying Bernie still has a chance of regaining momentum with the Black community in Michigan.

when Frasier asked his evil agent, Bebe Glaser, if there was any chance she was NOT responsible for feeding a gumball to a crane that had been involved in an incident causing bad publicity for Frasier.

Her answer: "Oh, darling, there's ALWAYS a chance..."

I don't really have any problem with the optimism. It's light-years better than the supporters plugging Biden's supposed mental decline.

tonight's Detroit rally with both Booker and Kamala Harris?

I don't think Sanders will be regaining any momentum...

Link to video of the Flint event. Not quite all of Booker's speech, since I still haven't seen video of him saying something that was quoted by a CNN reporter, but most of it:

all 17 of them, on various shows to make it look like he still has the support of African Americans.

The serious miscalculation is that he thinks blacks are not informed and just go by what they see on TV. In my experience, minorities study the candidates much more deeply because the quality of their lives is directly affected by elections. The people of privilege can see it as a game but to others, it is highly critical that they vote for the right person.
