Golden Goat Posted February 24, 2019 Share Posted February 24, 2019 15 minutes ago, Doc Brown said: Minorities are more likely to vote for people they feel represent them. The Clinton's are still popular the black community which is why Hillary dominated in states with a higher black population percentage compared to states Bernie won like South Carolina, Mississippi, Alabama, and Georgia where she received over 75% of the vote. Maybe southern minorities just don't buy into the whole socialism thing? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IDBillzFan Posted February 24, 2019 Share Posted February 24, 2019 49 minutes ago, Doc Brown said: Never said that because it would be factually inaccurate as 17% prefer Harris or Booker. My point was to illustrate the problem Bernie's going to have with people of color. What you said was Biden and Bernie were way out in front because the state is mostly white. That sounds a lot like they're voting for Biden and Bernie because they're white. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bernie will fare worse in states that have a larger African American percentage of Democratic primary voters. Harris and Booker will likely perform better in those states. Therefore, the New Hampshire poll should be taken with a grain of salt. Edited February 24, 2019 by Doc Brown 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I doubt it as their platforms weren't that different. I think this article accurately reflects why African Americans preferred Hillary over Bernie in such states. https://www.thenation.com/article/african-american-voters-have-a-good-reason-to-support-hillary-clinton/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IDBillzFan Posted February 25, 2019 Share Posted February 25, 2019 Bold Warren position here. Nice to see a candidate really put themselves out. So many people believe that science is actually magic, but only Warren has the boldness to say, "NO! Science is real, and I believe in it!"

Probably as they both ran as populists where one scapegoated the rich and the other scapegoated immigrants. Both railed against losing manufacturing jobs from trade deals, called for national infrastructure bills, vowed not to touch entitlement programs, pushed for getting troops out of Syria/Iraq/Afghanistan, were against the Iraq War, and didn't take any PAC money. He would've carried the three "blue wall" states that Trump took. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
