You have a concrete thought process. The intended message is very clear.

their deep-seated belief “that America is still a very racist place and a very misogynistic place and that a candidate who doesn’t get any white votes is probably going to lose.”

I think that is a ridiculously stupid statement. You apparently think it's smart. I thought it was so stupid I didn't bother to read the article. You thought it was so insightful that you chose it to paste here over every other sentence in the article. Probably? You actually think that if a candidate gets no white votes it's only probable they'll lose. Clearly most of the votes that Harris and Booker got to win their senate seat were white. So how does this idea that a candidate who doesn’t get any white votes is probably going to lose apply to your arguments here?

I pointed you to a link provided in an article from 538. You hurl insults.You are simply a blowhard.

The author talked to potential black voters and recorded their statements. The author has something valuable to add to the discussion.

The House held a panel discussing reparations because people see institutional racism as a problem

Biden worked with Eastland on anti-busing legislation. How is that agitprop?

You are making a good case

You are making a good case against Biden. He screwed up the Anita Hill Case. He didn’t think that supporting the Hyde amendment would be a problem in 2019. Now he wanted an apology from Booker.

Working with Eastland on anti-busing legislation is not a small matter. Biden has appeal and name recognition with older black voters. He is now being evalated by young black voters. If he worked with white supremacists on anti-busing bills, why should young black voters trust Biden, now without the influence of Obama, to deal with McConnell.

Clyburn is Democratic leadership, like Pelosi. Neither person is going to openly criticize a Democratic candidate for president. It will be interesting to see if Biden just gave Booker a boost. Booker too tot high ground, saying that he was done with the issue, but also noting that we were aiming for the future not the good old days of both Eastland and Obama that Biden finds pleasant.

It does not seem that Biden paints himself in glory.

PP getting all muddled up by reality.

Reality: it's complicated, lots of gray shades, doesn't follow a nice neat black/white agitprop narrative.

In reply to In your view Biden working

Realistically, Senate leader/Trump enabler/supreme court justice-stealer McConnell's probably done much more damage to minorities than Eastland could muster as a mere Senator (things that wouldn't have happened by other southerners anyway), especially in the later years that Biden knew him. But that's just PP getting all muddled up by reality.

In reply to And AOC approached Ted Cruz

In your view Biden working with a white supremacist on anti busing legislation is the same as Pelosi, Schumer, and Pelosi?

You actually think the jackass that wrote that article has something to add to this discussion, amazing. Of course a candidate that gets no white votes is going to lose. If Harris and Booker get no white votes it makes one wonder how they won elections before. Are you really saying that blacks think America is so racist that Harris and Booker will get no white votes? As usual conversations with you get to stupid to continue very fast.
