In reply to the discussion: Bernie Who? Sanders is a phantom to black voters in South Carolina [View all]hoosierlib
(710 posts)And that after Super Tuesday, only the states of Maryland, Missouri and Mississippi have populations where AA are greater than 15% of the population?
From a strategic standpoint, what I said is true and you can see it reflected in where the Sanders campaign is deploying its assets and resources (the state of TX, CO, OK, VA and MA). Go forward (i.e. after Super Tuesday), Latinos will be a much greater voting block. Hence why Ms. Huerta was attempting to create a fake scandal (yes, its bullshit) and hurt Mr. Sanders prospects. Its dirty politics at its finest.
Unlike Hillary, Bernie has finite resources (time, money and people power) that have to be allocated efficiency and effectively across the country. His margin of error is a lot smaller than Shrillary's...
