Bernie: ‘My Opponents’ Want Black, White, Gay, Latino or Women Candidates ‘Regardless of What They Stand For’

After the 2016 election, Sanders hit a similar theme when he told a crowd of supporters “It’s not good enough for somebody to say ‘hey I’m a Latina vote for me’ that is not good enough,” and went on to add “It is not good enough for somebody to say, ‘I’m a woman, vote for me.'”

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

There's no way that many will make it that far. Half a dozen tops. Garrett78 Feb 2019 #11

Super Tuesday will not be good for sanders Gothmog Feb 2019 #15

Not only did he not win with Secretary Clinton in the race, he really wasn't even close SFnomad Feb 2019 #8

I don't agree that Obama's win in the 2008 primaries was all that decisive. StevieM Feb 2019 #42

By the end of February, it was pretty clear that Senator Clinton had a very steep hill to climb SFnomad Feb 2019 #44

While I certainly remember that Sanders and his supporters were waiting for the indictment fairy StevieM Feb 2019 #49

Isn't the CA Primary in March 2020, on Super Tuesday? stopbush Feb 2019 #10

CA, TX, TN, AL, VA, etc. It won't be a good day for Sanders. If he's even still in the race. Garrett78 Feb 2019 #12
