How many African Americans does Bernie have on his staff in Vermont?
How many African Americans does Bernie have on his campaign or Senatorial staff up in Vermont?
If he does, he couldn't ask them to attend his opening rally the other day? For no other reason than the optics?
Although if he does have people of color on his staff in Vermont, you'd think some would want to attend such a momentous occasion. **** see footnote
I've seen some Sanders supporters mention Governor Bill Clinton who came from a very white state.
But you know what?
About a QUARTER of Clinton's gubernatorial staff was comprised of people of color. This in a state about 15% African American.
Governor Bill Clinton made an effort. He reached out specifically to African Americans while Governor and made sure they were included in his staff and his appointments.
Yet another example of Sanders and his campaign being INSULAR and not ready for prime time.
You better hope the press ignores him a while longer until he gets his sh*t together.
****Of course it's not possible to ascertain the ethnicity of a crowd by simply looking at a photo. But DU'ers certainly comment when photos of Republican rallies are shown and it's a sea of white people.
What the hell does color of a staffer have to do with anything? You DUmmies love to put people into groups of color and race. Its sick.

So you don't actually care about African Americans, it only matters that it looks like you care. Close enough?

How many black people live in Vermont, anyway?
Red Bernie would have needed to bring some in from out of state to improve his 'optics'.

That's been the Dem strategy for 50 years.

Will Pitt, Red Bernie's new sycophant, will stagger in later and give the haters a dose of imporent rage.

I'd be curious to find out where cali fits in all of this. Is she truly passionate about Bernie, or has she found temporary employment stirring the mud and rallying the DU troops?

...and a lot of foul language. Lots and lots of foul language.

You know, that's a good question. Perhaps she'll let something slip that will give us an answer.

True, I remember reading about the USAF getting flak over an air base in North Dakota not having a sufficient proportion of Black employees in the 70s, but on closer look, it turned out that almost everyone who was Black and in North Dakota was either already in the Air Force and stationed there, or were the immediate family members of someone who was. I suspect Vermont's demographics are kind of similar.

Doesn't Bernie have binders full of 'people of color?'

Hmmm.... he's either giving up the entire lib game plan or a damn good mole. Your call
