Steve Harvey been sold out.

Let's tell it like it really is. Blacks have been conditioned to support the Clintons for decades. The only time they turned against this conditioning is when a black candidate had a legitimate shot against a Clinton. Now that is behind us so they have regressed back to being Pro-Clinton.

Sanders just hit the Senate in 2007. He doesn't have the national profile as he was from Vermont and in the House. He was the wrong person to run against Clinton. Many black people don't even know who he is.

I agree it should have been Warren that ran against Clinton.

I agree it should have been Warren that ran against Clinton.

Warren knows the presidency is pretty weak with a republican congress. The thing is Warren should have endorsed Sanders as they seemingly share many values. More than she shares with Clinton. Warren isn't a fool though. She knows Sanders is a long shot and doesn't want to take a political stance against the Clintons. She won't endorse Clinton because they aren't on the same side but yet she won't endorse her opponent either.

This top-down vision of the world you all have is deeply corrupted and inherently flawed. Its not the way the US Government works.

Excuse me?

Bruh...this whole time people keep wanting to take effective and progressive lawmakers out of congress just to put them in symbolic positions where they technically have even LESS power.

You all got Warren in congress...she said a few high minded things...barely passed weak legislation to back it up, now you all want her in the White House...some of you all are completely clueless about political capital.

So Elizabeth warren in the senate has more political capital than Elizabeth warren in the White House?

Yes.

Because she's one of the most progressive members. Theres only a handful of people in congress that share her views and if she leaves for the White House, she has no support to enact her legislation or vision.

It seems that people seem to forget what Congress is, and what congressional members do.

The desire to push people to the white house or in the cabinet just removes viable politicians to actually affect change.





Thats why they'd rather push Rand Paul and the other 1 or 2 libertarians to the WH instead of building up a legislative coalition to enact their worldview.



and thats why the Tea party has a better chance of winning the WH than any other GOP member.

 

[Tate]

Yes.

This is a very dumb thought. Do you know what political capital is?

 

[LurkMoar]

we're trying man...but you gotta think too...hispanics are growing larger as a demographic and we're competing on all fronts just to maintain autonomy...shyts not easy

Were going to be left behind soon enough, the Hispanic population will soon eclipse s by far and once its them and the white folks at the top its a wrap.



Soon enough they wont even be pandering for us anymore

Good point. But I disagree because you're Napoleon

[Tate]

I'm honestly confused. So senator Obama had more political capital than president Obama?

 

[☑︎#VoteDemocrat]

This is a very dumb thought. Do you know what political capital is?

Do you?

It seems that you'd rather take the only female senator with any pull at all and put her in the white house instead of forcing her to put her weight behind more effective legislation.

Its complete stupidity

And yet people wonder why "the establishment" always wins...its because the Progressive Left has no long game or vision. They remove all of their legit candidates and put them in executive positions, and not legislative ones.
