If Sharpton endorses, it will be a HUGE boost for Sanders among Black voters. Sharpton has a lot of credibility. A stream of black support is coming.

I know he is divisive, but I thought he would have some leeway among the blacks.

Wow between Al Sharpton and Cornell West, Bernie really is collecting a motley little crew of horrible people to parade around as his token blacks.

You copied and pasted too much. We have a 20% rule here. That is Atlas law, and that is the only law that counts, so there is no need to debate the scope and reach of the "fair use" doctrine with you. I reported what appears to be the infringement.

Lol yeah. Literally the only endorsement that will sway the blacks is that of President Obama's himself. If he comes out for Clinton, which he basically has in but a few words, Sanders is shut out of the black vote in the primary.

If that isn't pandering, I don't know what is.

I'm not looking forward to the barrage of condescending comments and possibly racial slurs when Sanders loses South Carolina badly.

You act like black people are not humans with free will, but simply objects who will follow any black leader who makes an endorsement. I'd argue that that's much more racist than anything out of the Sanders campaign.

More proof that Sanders is completely clueless when it comes to race.
What' next, meeting with Louis Farrakhan?

Of course they have free will. And I specifically said they won't follow just any black leader. But Barack Obama isn't just any black leader and he holds far more sway in the black community than you'd think. Look at what happened when he endorsed gay marriage: black voters overwhelmingly switched their opinions because someone that they all admire made it look okay. The same thing will likely happen with Hillary. White folk just don't get it.

FYI Clinton will also be meeting with Sharpton next week. Let's not make too much hay out of this.

Shouldn't Sanders be fully against Sharpton due to being a criminal and not paying taxes? Says a lot about a person the company they keep, Sanders likes the wrong kind.

Two people here used the phrase "the blacks" to refer to our African American communities. That's... nice. Maybe some of the people on this forum should look at people a little less as statistical groups for political wonkery purposes and treat them a little more like living beings.

Anyway, this is typical political campaigning stuff. Like it or hate it, this is how things are done. Whether or not an endorsement from a figure such as Al Sharpton holds much weight today is highly questionable but, nevertheless, it won't hurt Bernie (or Hillary) by winning or losing his endorsement. It's mostly just for show.
