"non-white Dem voters give Clinton a net favorable rating of 77 points. Sanders’ net rating 19pts

I almost hesitate to post this --there is so much 'discussion' out there in the other forum. But it is part of the recent poll. I dislike the title as I do think things will change as time goes on.

....Since the Netroots conference, Sanders has worked #BlackLivesMatter rhetoric into his speeches, and reached out to activists. But according the most recent Washington Post/ABC News poll, non-white Democratic voters give Hillary Clinton a net favorable rating of 77 points. Sanders’ net rating is just 19 points. Some of that is a function of Sanders lower name ID, but 23 percent of non-white voters view Sanders negatively – and only 9 percent view Clinton that way.......

1. kind of off topic but

I just don't know if DU as a whole can withstand 8 or 9 more months of this. Not this particular topic, but all the back and forth and vitriol. And even after Hillary is a lock for the nomination, it probably won't end. I don't know how much longer I can stay here.

2. I know what you mean.....

I cruise past most of the subject threads out there--seldom open them to read.--most just repeat the nasty stuff. It is not just old and boring but mean--especially the name calling and bringing in old Right Wing material to diss on a Democrat. It is sickening.

3. Good Article

I like Dave Weigel and this is good analysis

4. When non white voters actually

hear what Sanders has to say, that will change. In 1964 Hillary was working for the GOP against the Civil Rights movement, while Sanders was going to jail for Civil Rights.

Main Theme of the Goldwater Campaign,
"In your Heart, you know he's Right"

Main Theme of Hillary's Campaign
"I was wrong about everything"

5. You are in the Hillary group, this is not a forum.

6. In 1964 Hillary was in high school

of all the stupid arguments against Hillary this is the dumbest.
She couldn't even register to vote until 1968. Age 21 was the voting age then.
After she left the tough Republican father, she quickly changed when she was at Wellesley.

Oh and bye bye now.

8. These posts are just embarrassing to poor Bernie Sanders.

He has to have supporters who just parrot misinformation all around the internet all day long.

I was chatting with a client who is a producer at CNN and she told me that this kind of stuff is beginning to become a story.

7. K & R

Again, even in HRC's safe haven she's attacked with falsehoods.
