Ben Jealous on Rachel Maddow Show. Absolutely powerful guy, possibly the best endorsement. Powerful message for Bernie & strong criticism on Hillary on black issues.

Bernie Sanders secured the support of the International Longshore and Warehouse Union on Thursday.
The endorsement from a key West Coast-based union comes ahead of Saturday’s Democratic caucuses in Alaska, Hawaii and Washington.

The union represents roughly 50,000 workers in California, Oregon, Washington, Alaska and Hawaii.

I think endorsement are over-rated in the victory race - In the sense, that even if the entire Oregon establishment goes against Sanders, he would still comfortably win Oregon. So it does not make a huge difference IMO.

But it's great finally to have en endorsement from 1 senator atleast!
