1. If Sharpton endorses Bernie, I see Clinton heads exploding.

[restorefreedom]

2. indeed. it would be uuuuuuuge. nt

[Odin2005]

7. YUUUUGE!!!

[restorefreedom]

14. :) nt

[Ned_Devine]

29. I think it has more to do with outreach with the African American community

[restorefreedom]

31. either way, could be very helpful. nt

[Ned_Devine]

33. No doubt

Bernie isn't about lip service

[Nite Owl]

3. Thought he was a Clinton guy

[restorefreedom]

4. maybe, but why meet with bernie during primary season? nt

[Nite Owl]

20. It would be so good

If he endorsed him, hope we find out soon.

[Bjorn Against]

19. He has spoken very positively of Bernie in the past

He had Bernie on his show after the Seattle incident and talked about his long record of civil rights, it was very clear that he liked Bernie a lot and thought some of the attacks against him were unfair.

23. Sharpton is a Progressive at the end of the day, period. n/t

[onehandle]

5. ...in his home state and city. nt

[cosmicone]

6. Last try to offer him the VP slot to get some traction with POC.

It won't work. Rev. Sharpton is much smarter to fall for that.

[morningfog]

8. Glad you recognize Bernie should be planning for his running mate!

[cosmicone]

10. Some people would call it pandering n/t

[morningfog]

11. Fact is, you have no idea what the fuck the meeting is about.

[cherokeeprogressive]

13. I'd bet he won't try to talk like Al Sharpton.

[frylock]

30. Some people say...

[Cheese Sandwich]

9. Can he endorse a candidate when he still has a show on MSNBC?

[restorefreedom]

15. good question. i honestly don't know. nt

[HooptieWagon]

27. Rest of MSNBC is fawning over a certain candidate...

[mikehiggins]

39. Well, what about Tweetie? Oh, sorry, what was I thinking? eom

[Nanjeanne]

12. I'm wondering if the breakfast is going to be

Sharpton, Sanders and Belafonte. And if the Belafonte endorsement will be announced then.

[restorefreedom]

16. that would be a beautiful moment. nt

[RobertEarl]

17. Lots of beautiful moments coming our way

This is so cool. Fun, for everyone.

[restorefreedom]

18. I really feel hopeful now.

like its really gonna happen....

[840high]

38. I hope so.

[DemocraticSocialist8]

21. Even though Sharpton doesn't have the pull in the Black community with younger Blacks

His name is big and his support of Sanders would eat into her huge lead with Blacks. That's not even including the 50% who are still Undecided.

[restorefreedom]

22. it would be a big endorsement for bernie

esp with older folks who remember him.

and yes undecideds could be swayed too

[HooptieWagon]

28. Millenial blacks are pretty good for Sanders.

It's their parents and grandparents whose votes he needs to earn. Maybe Sharpton will help, idk.

[nadinbrzezinski]

24. Hmm that might explain some of the things I have been hearing

for a month or so.

[restorefreedom]

25. ? care to share?

[nadinbrzezinski]

26. from locals and who they are intending to invite

the first invitation is out of the embargo though. Al Shartpton is coming to San Diego to inaugurate the local NAN chapter on the 27

[restorefreedom]

32. interesting. more developments to come, i am sure. nt

[nadinbrzezinski]

34. Yup

we ran that story in the morning.

36. Very cool, nadin. Thanks for the link.

[nadinbrzezinski]

37. I was intending to run it yesterday

but I was truly sick as a dog

[bobGandolf]

35. please no bernie! not Al, not yet!
