    I agree, but to think Biden is the guy.. smh.. Clyburn's endorsement holy sh-t.. Black people voted for Biden and are going to get nothing to show for it. Biden washed the south and didn't even have offices in the south.

    Well being Obama's vice president is more substantive than policy.

    I would vote for Bernie if he is the Dem nominee come November. But having this person as a surrogate is rather iffy.

    This is a result of the whole victim mentality of the campaign.

    if Biden wins the nomination I can already hear Trump trying to suppress the vote triggering Bernie supporters to stay home.

    That is up to Sanders supporters. As Deckard has noted 12% of Sanders supporters stayed home last time. If y’all see no difference between Biden and trump then I don’t know what to say.

    A very normal number, 12% not voting or switching over is to be expected in any contested primary, this is not special for Bernie. A higher number of Hillary voters switched to McCain then Bernie voters to Trump. This is just a poor excuse Hillary supporters use for her failure.

    Since Bernie will lose this primary fair and square, I expect a similar %, which will be just fine for Biden, 85%+ of Bernie's support is all Biden can expect, the rest is his job.

    He marched in the civil right movement getting arrested in the process. He endorsed Jesse Jackson when he ran for President. His whole platform is about erasing the class structure that keeps the boot on black people's necks.

    What has Joe Biden done for black people? Obama chose this dude to be his VP so white people would feel good about a black person being president.

    More Hilary people voted for McCain than Obama after she dropped out. Nobody talks about that.

    Ehhh I don't think that's true. It's was a similar amount from Bernie to Trump.

    If Biden wins, are you really going to sit out the general?

    Hell no. I'm EARLY voting Biden if he wins. Bernie had a rough night, but it's not over. The primary was always going to be tougher for Bernie than the general... if he makes it there. I lost sight of that.. that's on me.

    Not sure I agree with that.

    The last 2 presidents ran on massive change after all.

    No, I don't think the other option is socialism, I think it is democratic socialism.
