As down as I am on Warren, Yang is even worse in terms of having a bunch of signs that he isn't anything approaching a reliable advocate for poor and working class Americans. The nature of his UBI in particular is very telling about his own worldview. I at least trust Warren to be a left-leaning Dem, even if that's woefully inadequate and much worse than Bernie. But unlike Warren, Yang doesn't garner enough support to actually be a concern during the primary (and this is also the same reason I don't worry about Williamson at all). joepinetree posted:I'm sure that the people who spent the last year and a half worrying about minority support for Bernie will now start to do the same for Warren. Yeah, their lack of commenting on this really stands out. I haven't heard a peep from Warren supporters about this. The most generous possible interpretation of their silence is that they're just total rubes who viscerally react more negatively to the optics of Bernie, as an old white man.

What is there to comment on? No one has, as far as I know, ever claimed Warren is the preferred candidate of black voters. Warren's support is overwhelmingly white and college-educated, skewing female. Has anyone ever claimed otherwise?

Marianne goes on everything because she's an alpha ready to trample the hosts for their lack of understanding for growing peace in the world. Her appearance on Chapo was exactly this. Yang goes on these things because he agrees with Rubin.

JesusSinfulHands posted:https://twitter.com/reidepstein/status/1151614055729246209 By splitting the tiers this way, Biden only has to face one top tier candidate, so PYF and he's got a 33% chance of meeting them. This "No Kiddietable" mindset is protecting a bad debater like Biden from candidates that matter, but as we learned last debate anyone can go for it and Harris was polling at <2%(?) when she delivered the Canned Zinger of the Night (tm) so even if this protects Biden from Sanders plenty of people have shown themselves capable.

Warren may be underwater with black voters, but black voters went strongly for Hillary in the 2016 primaries and Biden is in front among them now, so I'm not sure the lack of support now portends a weakness in the general

I know, which is why I’m saying that the candidate who gets the most black and Latino support in the primary might still be a weak candidate in the general. After all, Bernie Would Have Won so that’s an indication that we shouldn’t extrapolate black and Latino preferences now to the general

Many of the same people supporting Warren were/are the same ones who frequently express "concerns" about Sanders and minority support. There has been a distinct absence of the same talking point that was (and still is) so commonly used against Sanders.

papa horny michael posted:Her foundation Project Angel Food has cared for hiv/aids patients for longer than the u.s. government chose to consider them as people. quote:“The AIDS virus is not more powerful than God,” Williamson told a group of HIV positive disciples, according to a 1992 Los Angeles Times expose, written when Williamson was still in the early days of her fame. She also tells women facing postpartum depression to forget medication and pray, and spoke out against increased efforts to screen women for depression rather than just ignoring them. Man, these are some real loving progressive values right here. Why are so many of you so enamored with an obvious, capitalist grifter? She’s only running to sell books and speaking fees, even if she does impress you by saying the exact same poo poo that’s been said here a thousand times.

I'm impressed by the material support of food, and rides, she's been organizing for decades. Anything you say about her wishy washy bs can be transposed onto all the candidates, except for Bernie. And a majority of the shitheels around back then, of the political and medical communities, were telling aids/hiv people that they were going to die and deserved it. earlier you were repeating junk about her being an anti-vaxxer of the same variety used against the saint Jill Stein. do you also have concerns about the anti-Semite Jeremy Corbin?

Does anyone have a non-bullshit answer for how they can support Bernie Sanders first and a grifter who makes her money on anti-vaxx and anti-mental health conspiracies? For all the ranting about lack of access to health care that goes on here, you folks really don’t loving get the damage that is done by people who convince people to stop taking medicine and pay her instead.
