Y'all are not understanding just how big Biden is with older black people here in Virginia. I live near Norfolk and all I've been hearing is "Biden this and Biden that" and "If we vote Biden, it'll be like getting Obama back". I'm not saying black voters are idiots, but they are definitely misinformed.
The DNC did what thr RNC didn't last time. They had everyone drop early before momentum built.
Bernies problem has always been expanding the coalition. He's been hovering 30 percent for awhile. That means 70 percent aren't choosing him. If that 70 percent is split five ways he can coast. If not it becomes an issue
i think it's pretty clear that biden is solely in this position because of obama and his legacy. that's a lot of trust placed in him by a whole lot of people. joe better fucking realize that and actually do right by those people and work his old white ass off to beat trump.
and i will say, maybe it would've helped bernie to make some inroads with the obama people, if only to ease concern that he's aiming to build off of what obama built instead of tearing it all down like people probably fear.

Bernie's coalition was proportional to the dem electorate because it shed conservative white and Hispanic voters relative to 2016. Not because it gained black voter support. And while the numbers were going overall across the board w all demos recently, even his best numbers with that group were still landing at or slightly above his 2016 levels at their highest points w/ black voters.
Would you say that so especially true for black voters that you have to mention them specifically?
sure <3
just not the guy trash talking leftist ideas like a smug right winger
...maybe Hillary fits that particular bill too though ugh
The truth is that most americans don't want to care about a president every day of their lives, they really just want that normalcy back. They are fine with droning middle east countries and deporting immigrants as long as you do it in a civil way.
It's just how it is.

This was a mistake by the Twitter account, the polls aren't closed in Maine.
Someone that knows more about delegate break down, goes does it change apposed to 2016 that the person winning in the southern states get about 50% of the vote instead of 70-80 like Hillary did? Will Biden get less delegates from these states?
bernie or warren
if biden wins and names some goof like pete over warren it'll be a huge mistake
i think one of the worst things hillary did in 2016 was name tim kaine
Yup. When myself and others were pointing out the issue with his campaign needing to win back a combination of conservative Bernie 2016 voters and Hillary 2016 voters to get a majority and that we just hadn't seen any signs of that....ever- it wasn't concern trolling.
I'm watching NBC News live stream on Pluto TV. Era's favorite Chuck Todd is hosting.
I could live with that. I'm honestly dreading Biden at the top of the ticket and I need a great VP choice if he gets it.
I don't think they are misinformed. I'm black, and have a lot of black friends and family. They know what Bernie stands for and know what Biden stands for. Black voters have been and probably always will be super pragmatic. I've seen folks say that while they agree more with Bernie or Warren, they don't believe either could win a general election. It just is what it is.
You ban baiting or something?
Where did I mention them specifically?
Saw a post accussing black people of being low information, a poster getting upset and me trying to contextualize that people, generally speaking, no matter the color, creed, or care are typically tribal, low information, and driven by emotion.
it's not really a controversial thing to point out
Bernie bro or Biden Stan, most people are not drawing loyalties through deep calculated rational processes.
The only VP pick that would attract all the Bernie people would probably be Bernie himself
But that's not gonna happen, so pick Tammy Baldwin and win Wisconsin
=
While it wouldn't mean much in terms of delegate numbers, Biden being viable in VT would be a pretty significant "moral victory" for him.

i can't believe that this same guy
is now where he is. the power of obama for real
Biden's description of Obama draws scrutiny - CNN.com
Sen. Joe Biden planned to spend Wednesday focusing on his official announcement that he was running for president, but the Delaware Democrat instead found himself defending remarks he made to the New York Observer about his Democratic opponents.

Nah. It's Joe Biden. Any VP pick is just putting lipstick on a pig.
honestly still think a poc would be a bertter vp choice tbh. ether way, regardless of who wins there will be massive presure for a youngish vp.
