I don’t know what is happening on the last few pages. I couldn’t care less about this Bernie/Biden shyt. Biden is still a shytty candidate that has a history of supporting terrible policies. I mostly agree with Bernie on policy, but he still doesn’t have a specific Black agenda that is good enough imo.

I fukking hate Michael Bloomberg, and it fukk him forever due to stop and frisk. However, I can’t front on his Greenwood Initiative. It is the best specific Black proposal any candidate have came up with in any presidential election I can remember. I still have question. I like the idea of putting $70 Billion in Black neighborhoods, but how are you going to stop gentrification/Black people being displaced in these neighborhoods? I had the same question for Warren, and Harris housing proposals.

The Black home ownership part of the plan is outstanding. He actually gave decent specifics on how it would work, and the goal is to have a million Black people buy homes:ehh:

I like the entrepreneurship part of the plan for the most part. The stated goal is to start 100,000 Black owned Businesses through incubators, mentorship, and making funding available through loans. One of the biggest barriers to starting Black businesses is lack of access to capital, so this is needed. What I don’t like is that it states this is particularly for Black Women. I want Black Women to start businesses, but Black Men need this just as much if not more since we are in a worse economic position then Black Women. This need to be adjusted.

Good proposal for the most part, I just don’t believe he would really push for it if he got elected. Plus I don’t see how Bloomberg could beat Trump. But we should force whoever we support to adapt some of these ideas. This goes for Biden Boyz, Bernie Bros, and weaver the hell us Liz suppers call ourselves.

What causes gentrification? If black people have the economic power to live comfortably in the homes that would help. Too often we are struggling to make ends meet and we accept the carrots dangled at us to move.

So how do we make the mortgages on those homes less of a millstone?

:mjlol: you post more than me
Right. Because I just say “this is BarNone” when it’s me for no reason. You stay @ me trying to stir shyt up. You’re almost 30 still posting and acting like it’s 2012. You want my attention that bad? I should tell the homie to stop posting under my name so I don’t have you weirdos in my mentions when I read Lakers and Michigan threads. Biden is going to win anyway, I have no idea why you or anyone else is wasting their time.

Hillary Clinton in Full: A Fiery New Documentary, Trump Regrets and Harsh Words for Bernie: "Nobody Likes Him"

In the doc, you're brutally honest on Sanders: "He was in Congress for years. He had one senator support him. Nobody likes him, nobody wants to work with him, he got nothing done. He was a career politician. It's all just baloney and I feel so bad that people got sucked into it." That assessment still hold?

Yes, it does.

If he gets the nomination, will you endorse and campaign for him?

I'm not going to go there yet. We're still in a very vigorous primary season. I will say, however, that it's not only him, it's the culture around him. It's his leadership team. It's his prominent supporters. It's his online Bernie Bros and their relentless attacks on lots of his competitors, particularly the women. And I really hope people are paying attention to that because it should be worrisome that he has permitted this culture — not only permitted, [he] seems to really be very much supporting it. And I don't think we want to go down that road again where you campaign by insult and attack and maybe you try to get some distance from it, but you either don't know what your campaign and supporters are doing or you're just giving them a wink and you want them to go after Kamala [Harris] or after Elizabeth [Warren]. I think that that's a pattern that people should take into account when they make their decisions.

Speaking of, he allegedly told Sen. Elizabeth Warren in 2018 that he didn't think a woman could win, a statement he vigorously denies. How did you digest that?

Well, number one, I think [that sentiment] is untrue, which we should all say loudly. I mean, I did get more votes both in the primary, by about 4 million, and in the general election, by about 3 million. I think that both the press and the public have to really hold everybody running accountable for what they say and what their campaign says and does. That's particularly true with what's going on right now with the Bernie campaign having gone after Elizabeth with a very personal attack on her. Then this argument about whether or not or when he did or didn't say that a woman couldn't be elected, it's part of a pattern. If it were a one-off, you might say, "OK, fine." But he said I was unqualified. I had a lot more experience than he did, and got a lot more done than he had, but that was his attack on me. I just think people need to pay attention because we want, hopefully, to elect a president who's going to try to bring us together, and not either turn a blind eye, or actually reward the kind of insulting, attacking, demeaning, degrading behavior that we've seen from this current administration.

You've grappled with whether you should have fired back more aggressively at Trump when you had the chance. Can a woman win that way in 2020?

It's hard still. Very hard. I thought Elizabeth did a good job [at the Jan. 14 Democratic debate] with, "The only people on this stage who have won every one of their races are Amy and me." I thought that was clever. Some people loved it, some hated it.
