A question as an outsider. Reading about American history, it looks evident to me that your nation was indeed founded on racist principles (native American eradication + slavery). And it took a long time, effort, blood, war and death for USA to (for the most part) overcome those principles and evolve into a democratic society.

When you say he is going to get pilloried (great word, didn't know that till now) to death on that one, you mean that the American base is going to condemn him for stating what I deem obvious, or that he is going to get barbecued for it by people that...are actually racists (like most of the GOP candidates) ?

Hey, don't forget about the Native Americans, just ask the guy on the $20 dollar bill.

Seriously, it took until the 1930's 1975 for the US government to come up with the brilliant policy of "leave them the gently caress alone, let them do their own thing" for the people who were living here since before this nation was founded.

It's not really hard to see that the US was founded on racist principles. It was also founded with certain economic interests in mind, mainly with regard to protecting the rights of wealthier landowners. However, the average American becomes extremely uncomfortable when you bring these things up, because a) it makes it clear that we didn't start on a fair playing field, and b) it implies that there are ongoing issues that still exist that weren't magically solved when the slaves were freed. There are actual racists that will be turned off by Sanders saying this, but they probably already disliked him, so there's no great loss there. The concern, I think, is rather that the narrative will become "Sanders says were all racists who live in a country founded on slavery," which makes everyone feel bad and uncomfortable while also sounding kind of unpatriotic, despite being true.

Once he wins the nomination he's going to backtrack on all that.

Isn't that the republican presidential problem? Appealing to republicans to get the nomination without disgusting the majority of the population you need to win the general?

Trump's the guy that doesn't have to hold back in the primary because he'll just say he was misinterpreted once he wins the nomination and he won't have time to deal with losers bringing up that nonsense because he is busy making America Great Again.

Ehh, that was a wince line but the campaign is early days and He's not the leader in the media narrative. That would be a damning line for Hillary but Bernie may be able to weather it, we'll see.

Edit: to be clear, I think the media wants a horse race and everyone but Hillary wants Bernie challenging Hillary right now, even Republicans, so they're less likely to give him the full you didn't build that treatment.
