without inviting her to speak, could they? That would be self-serving, publicity-seeking, unmitigated hypocrisy.

Nina Turner on BERNIE SANDERS at the Women's Convention [View all] Purveyor Oct 2017 OP

So all women of color agree with Nina Turner? JHan Oct 2017 #1

... sheshe2 Oct 2017 #4

I gotta laugh though. JHan Oct 2017 #6

I gotta love ya though. sheshe2 Oct 2017 #7

Sanders does better among black women than any other group Quixote1818 Oct 2017 #69

Look that harvis Harris poll has been debunked JHan Oct 2017 #71

Sorry, no it hasn't Quixote1818 Oct 2017 #72

I edited my comment for that reason. JHan Oct 2017 #73

Sorry, but your little graphic doesn't make your case that anyone elected Ninsianna Oct 2017 #81

"Joy Reid hating "white" dude" ??? Quixote1818 Oct 2017 #111

Why use a descriptive term for the video you posted? Ninsianna Oct 2017 #132

Nope, never said Nina Turner is all black women??? Quixote1818 Oct 2017 #137

Oh, I see you edited out calling Hillary Clinton a Goldwater Girl in your post. betsuni Oct 2017 #153

I edited it out because I felt it was going to be divisive Quixote1818 Oct 2017 #161

I've never seen any other politician held responsible for what they did at sixteen years old. betsuni Oct 2017 #163

So you don't think it would have been divisive then? Quixote1818 Oct 2017 #209

Do these guys have a list of things they paste from? Ninsianna Oct 2017 #173

Clinton's favorables were in the high 60's when she left the Dept of State emulatorloo Oct 2017 #155

Did I say 'all'? Nope, you said most black women based on things you can't back up. Ninsianna Oct 2017 #171

Why did you post a video calling Joy Reid a "sellout"? George II Oct 2017 #182

to suggest her views don't mater BainsBane Oct 2017 #192

Joy Reid is probably one of the most respected and revered AA woman progressive "pundit".... George II Oct 2017 #194

Nope, because the video shows most black women have a high favor-ability of Sanders. Quixote1818 Oct 2017 #211

it is not a fact. It's false BainsBane Oct 2017 #216

Except for the fact that it doesn't say that at all, nor does any poll show that. Ninsianna Oct 2017 #220

Because it was the first place I had seen the stats on Sanders polling with black folks. nt Quixote1818 Oct 2017 #210

Sorry, you should re-read the heading of the video. According to that... George II Oct 2017 #202

The polls asked about 9 and 12 public figures BainsBane Oct 2017 #196

Not surprising... Bernie is popular with ALL groups, across the board... and for good reason! InAbLuEsTaTe Oct 2017 #78

Except all the groups across the board who are not allowed to speak, right? Ninsianna Oct 2017 #167

I silenced people? I made a vote? I have a plan? Havent the slightest idea what you're talkin about. InAbLuEsTaTe Oct 2017 #187

"Popular with ALL groups"? On what is this based? George II Oct 2017 #184

How do you think he got to be the most popular politician in America right now? InAbLuEsTaTe Oct 2017 #188

He's not the most popular politician in America. If you're referring to the Harvard-Harris poll.... George II Oct 2017 #189

"The [poll] ONLY included about a DOZEN politicians"... oookayyy. InAbLuEsTaTe Oct 2017 #190

Well, I can only assume the poll to which you're referring, you weren't specific, but most likely.. George II Oct 2017 #191

Other than Obama, who's obviously not eligible to run for Prez again in 2020... InAbLuEsTaTe Oct 2017 #195

The premise behind the poll wasn't prospective presidential candidates. It was simply... George II Oct 2017 #199

You make some good points and I, for one, certainly don't consider the poll "definitive" InAbLuEsTaTe Oct 2017 #200

Thanks. I doubt we'll see a poll of prospective candidates, an all-inclusive one, at least.... George II Oct 2017 #201

I certainly HOPE not until 2019... we need to focus on the 2018 congressional races, in a BIG way!! InAbLuEsTaTe Oct 2017 #203

You do realize that the Harvard-Harris poll gave respondents only a limited list of "policitians"... George II Oct 2017 #96

Joy Reid is a sellout? lapucelle Oct 2017 #98

Did you see his FB page? Lots of money to be made promoting division. Ninsianna Oct 2017 #169

Say it ain't so. sheshe2 Oct 2017 #181

Yes, but The RatNat's activism has been de-monitized by Youtube! lapucelle Oct 2017 #185

Poor dear. Even if theyd didn't, isn't the Bernie market rather saturated? Ninsianna Oct 2017 #221

Joy is a joy to watch!! InAbLuEsTaTe Oct 2017 #197

We like him well enough (except the Dem bashing), most of us went for Hillary though. brush Oct 2017 #104

Black women aren't even shown on that graph, so how do you come to the conclusion that... George II Oct 2017 #164

That was based on a very small sample BainsBane Oct 2017 #186

Did someone say that? whathehell Oct 2017 #90

Maxine Waters is the headlining speaker. elleng Oct 2017 #2

But Tamika said that Bernie was the headliner, and that Maxine was giving the keynotee. Ninsianna Oct 2017 #9

Mallory did a quick about face when she saw all the pushback from Democrats. George II Oct 2017 #97

Yes. Um, do they not realize that their public tweets, likes and retweets Ninsianna Oct 2017 #99

A simple reality is that half of all women are conservative and that perhaps Hortensis Oct 2017 #159

You'd think that the fact that they're doing this perched on their stools on Fox would clue them in Ninsianna Oct 2017 #168

Lol. So true. The eyebrow-raiser of claiming to want "unity" but insisting on division. Hortensis Oct 2017 #179

I ran into a few people who were repeating the crap I see proliferating online. Ninsianna Oct 2017 #222

Is it verified that EW and HRC were invited? lapucelle Oct 2017 #31

Michelle Obama: "When they go low..." Hortensis Oct 2017 #215

They did EXACTLY what they did at the march. LisaM Oct 2017 #14

She's the keynote. Bernie has the primetime slot, and is the actual headliner Ninsianna Oct 2017 #12
