Yep! Remember that one time that BS was in a majority black city (N. Charlotte, SC) and holding a rally in an historically black church... in a predominantly black neighborhood... and those in attendance STILL had less ethnic diversity than his home state of Vermont. Now something like THAT is an unmistakable and stunning rebuke of BS by the AA and POC communities. They didn't even want to BOTHER to come listen to him even though he was RIGHT THERE in their neighborhood.

All I'm saying is that this is NOT a good sign when a crucial voting group can't even be bothered to just listen. How humiliating that must have been for the BS campaign. I'm sure they won't admit it publicly, but deep down in their heart, I'm sure that the BS campaign staff knows that he doesn't stand a chance of being our party's nominee (especially now that his fainting-spell, heart-attack and stent procedure has forced him to slow down... that's having a negative impact as well.)

I hope he continues to take it easy and not do too much (as his cardiologist has ordered) so that he'll be able to return to the Senate.

I get an exaggerated influence in selecting the nominees every 4 years.

For the record, this process is absurd. Iowa, NH, Nevada and SC are four of the most atypical states in the nation. Why should:
A state that votes based on corn policies;
A state that is a suburb of Massachusetts;
A state that is based on gambling and prostitution; and
A state that is still fighting the Civil War;

get to select our Presidential candidates?

If I were to vote in a presidential
primary today, I would vote for:
Joe Biden
