76. Hillary doesn't respect the black vote
so they'll stay at home or write-in somebody else. Hillary's superdelegate argument of 'big states' is a euphemistic way of saying that the white, working class voter is more important than the black voter. This argument even though the white, working class vote is hardly a bedrock of the Democratic Party, whereas the black vote is. Lack of respect = single digits for the black vote.

Also, want to thank Bill Clinton. I'm a black man in my 20s, and didn't know that Jesse Jackson had won the SC Dem Primary twice in the 80s. That is, until Bill was happy to educate me. Thanks Bill! :eyes:
