Clinton is leading among white voters 50%-36%

and Sanders supporters around here want to talk about POC voters and their "devotion" to Clinton.

Here's a clue: Saying things like that ain't doing a damn thing to win my undecided vote...and I might not have to decide a damn thing anyway, because by Super Tuesday, Clinton is going to have this thing wrapped up, at the rate y'all going.

No matter what the question, for some folks the answer is to ALWAYS blame black folks.

At least five times a week somebody has to tell these people that their unending -- and INCREDIBLY successful (judging by the poll results) -- efforts to alienate people of color is counter productive to the success of their candidate. Not to mention incredibly racist/offensive/stupid.

At this point, the fact that they still keep doing it is not from a lack of knowledge but is obviously deliberate.
