Tulsi has been raised in a Hawaiian cult called the Science of Identity that believes that some white guy who lives in Honolulu is the literal incarnation of God. The leader is obsessed with being accepted by the wider Hindu community as a legitimate form of Hinduism as opposed to now where its seen as a cult because its core belief is that some white dude in Honolulu is the literal incarnation of God. Tulsi's entire presidential campaign is based around creating legitimacy for herself and then by extension legitimacy for the Science of Identity organization. This is also why she's so anti-gay and anti-Muslim because guess what two things extremely large portions of the writings of the guy they think is literally God is devoted to decrying.

None of this is a joke btw.

Holy poo poo lmao. I knew a little about the cult, but not that in-depth and oh boy. Appreciate it because that's actually crazy. That makes sense with her grabbing as many headlines, good or bad, as possible I suppose.

I've knocked ~120 doors of black households (in the hood), and I've received overwhelming support for Brother Bernie.

I literally have only heard Biden's name mentioned once. And that person was split between Biden and Bernie. I spoke about Bernie's policy and history. I had her sold at "SNCC".

Establishment narrative about no support from POC is laughable

Which state was this

Biden's "support" is centered around the establishment's assumption that he's the most capable of beating Trump. Its incredibly soft, his black support is mostly centered around the idea that Obama's vice president isn't a loving moron who flees New Hampshire while people are still voting.

I think there was a CNN focus group where they asked a group of black Democrats from South Carolina about the primaries. They all said they supported Biden as the front runner but wouldn't vote for him in the primary (since he sucks).

Yup. Buttigieg is going to start losing support as people start to realize how badly he sucks which will in turn boost another candidate (probably Klob). This will repeat a couple more times but since nobody can pass the bar of "doesn't suck terribly" all that support will eventually make it's way back to Bernie in the home stretch.

It is literally the 2016 Republican primary again.

I kinda suspect Nevada goes to Pete or to the Klobb, SC goes to Biden for a short-lived resuscitation of his campaign, and then Bernie rocks Super Tuesday. Warren loses MA if she's still in the race.

The polls I'm thinking of here are probably pretty out of date though.

the way they're going to ratfuck bernie in nevada is that there will be a lot of caucuses where the first alignment is 40 Bernie / 30 CIA / 30 Klob and they'll let the two losers realign and form an anti-bernie bloc even though that's explicitly against the rules

this except instead of embracing Bernie like the GOP did with Trump, the Dems would rather implode and gently caress over themselves than win the presidency
