:confused: Last I checked Milwaukee was seeing a big influx of young people from Chicago who resettled there thanks to cheaper prices and are revitalizing downtown.

Having a bottle of wine tonight to go along with the debate. Gonna take a drink every time Hillary evades a question that would make her look bad if she answered it truthfully, or pulls the ol' Obdicut and pretends she doesn't understand what's being asked and quickly changes the topic.

Qualified HOW? You've married or been appointed (or carpetbagged) your way into every position in your entire life. You barely did poo poo as a Senator, you lasted only four years as SecState. The only thing you're qualified for is increasing your personal power by increasing your backstage connections and speechmaking to elites bounties.

YES REAL TALK BERNIE DO IT!

Basically what happened is there was an extreme amount of white flight in Milwaukee and if you go from certain neighborhoods in Milwaukee across west to Waukesha it's a very stark difference. (Waukesha is also extremely Republican)

This is changing a little bit nowadays but probably falls under "gentrification"

Interested to see what Bernie and Hillary say about it

I really doubt any of them had better than boilerplate answers for 'yea but what of white people issues hmmm?' Sanders is giving his generic rising tide lifts all boats speech it sounds like.

wtf $16/month? If he's receiving no income it should be something like $130 or $140 a month in Wisconsin via EBT

The only way he'd be getting $16/month is if he has a significant amount of other income since it's scaled against that, afaik
