Have you even been paying attention? How the duck did he win Oklahoma, Minnesota, and New Hampshire? Then coming very close in other places.

Blacks are concentrated in places where sHillary is nearly irrelevant. She may sneak N.C. EDIT: and Maryland, but that's it. She'd likely win New York, but where is this bastion of Blacks that going to help her located? I think she's hit her ceiling.More than 60% of the electorate was black, blacks are wedded to the Clintons for some reason

Doesn't matter as far as the voting patterns of whites in that state. The only whites in South Carolina that support Sanders over Clinton, within the white who voted were very young white people. Not even 30 year old young but your 18-22 year old college age kids. That just South Carolina though.More than 60% of the electorate was black, blacks are wedded to the Clintons for some reason
Coming close isn't winning. Minnesota has always been a very oddball anti-convention state. Same state that elected Al Franken to senate and Ventura as governor. Which is odd when you compare it with the typical image most people have of Minnesota of being home to racist white militia men lol.

Oklahoma is your strongest case though.

And Colorado? I'm not being harsh on you, don't get me wrong, but OK, CO, and MN more than proves he has broad White blue collar support. Keep watching

fukk no! Obama barely won it from Romney, and a lot of
is still going down there. You see the long lines, because they close the polling sites to produce long waits. Don't get it twisted, FL is red for sHillary. People loved Obama and Romney nearly beat him. Hillary doesn't get the enthusiasm vote.Florida
97% in
D Barack Obama 50% ✓ 4,235,270
R Mitt Romney 49% ✓ 4,162,081
The Jews, likely, would be energized for Bernie though, in a real change election.
I'm not a fan of Booker...dude is all show, no substance.You know he is currently on the road with Hillary right now and is also a self describe moderate neo-liberal. However he is also a proponent of reforming the criminal justice system that Hillary is credited with worsening.
How do you folks think this pick would play out ?
I can tell by some of the URL that this is a dope source without even reading it. Props.

If Hillary did not get the Black vote in the Primary to carry the South, she would not have won the nomination. So that show's enthusiasm. Florida is still a southern state and usually vote Republican Presidential. so you can't say Obama was expected to carry it and barely beat Romney. The voting electorate in Florida is Anglo-Whites concentrated in North and Central Florida which vote Republican vs Blacks, Hispanics and the Liberal Whites in South Florida which vote Democratic. For Hillary to win Florida she need the Black vote, and that's the only state in the south that can happen to. And the long lines was because of the high turnout.fukk no!

I don't understand this post really. Nothing against you, but FL is the definition of a swing state. Obama won it by more in 2008. I call it a bellwether state. It's pretty much a reflection of the mood of the rest of the country to some extent. I see it now drifting red. If Blacks, who were wildly enthusiastic about Obama in 2008 could only get it by 2% over McCain, Hillary has no shot in hell.
Sanders could likely get disaffected voters who don't want to be seen as racists, has no more faith in the establishment after dealing with Rick Scott, or just feel a new direction is needed. Hillary is not going to draw those people, and will lose Black enthusiasm in all areas too. She has little shot, as people are going to get fires up to beat Trump, but that's not going to really draw as many people as a promise of a brighter future would. It's not a change election for Hillary.
Polling spots have either been closed or moved, nationwide, for a while now, despite demographic shifts. Our voting patterns hasn't really changed that much. You may can contribute 2008 lines to people going nuts for Obama, but 2012 was just normal. You get lines, because there are fewer places to vote.
Bottom line: Hillary has no safe places outside of New York, Massachusetts, California, Washington State, Delaware, and Vermont imho.
