Agreed, on all counts. Yet that isn't exactly the direct action, proactive policy stance his black constituency was vocally supporting him for.

Ok, I must admit that I don't know what "proactive policy stance his black constituency was vocally supporting". Can you point out how he failed this group specifically?

So Obama was suppose to pass bills that say " Only for black people" GTFO
I did fairly well under Obama. I was wise enough to take advantage of programs set up for minority business owners. Did you ?
Obama successfully pushed to reduce the disparity in sentencing between those who are convicted of crack versus cocaine. Directly reducing the sentencing of our AA community.
President Obama provided $2 billion for community colleges and other eligible institutions to improve education and career training programs. Directly improving AA community
Obama has improved the quality of education in our lowest and poorest performing schools. Again a direct improvement to AA community
I could go on but it will serve you better if you did some research yourself. Don't look for what has Obama done for black only. Look what he has done for the poor and disadvantaged. Obama could never pass anything if it was deemed for blacks only. That would have been called racist by the fools.

I wasn't judging, I was merely pointing out that expectations and delivery didn't match up like they hoped... and that for very similar reasons to those you've discussed above, the same will be true vis a vis Mrs Clinton and her gender.

and you actually think Bernie will or better yet will be able to do all he says. How long have you been voting ?

I do not believe that Bernie or anyone else will get everything they want done, that just isn't how the presidency works. I DO think his election would be a watershed moment for class warfare in our country.

How much progress he makes will depend on the level of support he gets from his constituents, just like always.

Bernie can't keep losing by large margins in the south. Is he running to become the president of all 50 states, or just 35? It doesn't matter if Bernie squeezes out victories up north, Hillary will still get the delegates she needs in the end. Probably long before the end

considering all of the south voted let's hear from the other 35 before a decision is rendered

So are you writing off upcoming Florida, North Carolina, Kentucky, and West Virginia? That would be a big mistake.

Florida is not a southern state in the political sense.

while it is true that northern Florida is redneck, Orlando (mid) is Midwest, Miami has northern influence.

In terms of geography, it's very far south.214 delegates. Right now, Hillary has a big lead in the polls there. Same with North Carolina and Ohio. I'm just not seeing the same path to victory as yourself. Is there some sort of a road map you could show me, for a better understanding of how you see Bernie pulling it off?

Mr Obama has done damn near nothing for the landslide of black voters who helped elect him.

Mrs Clinton won't lift a finger for women, just watch.

Mr Sanders has an economic plan that will help most of the nation. THAT'S what sets him apart and it's why he's the only real alternative to the status quo.

Donald`s plan helps all of the Nation, not just some. Stop businesses from leaving is the number one thing to stop. We pay way too much to buy from other planets. Nobody up to today makes it difficult for businesses that left to sell here,...Donald will.

Bernie is not the way.
