Black establishment Dems coming out to block for Hilary in SC. Get ready for some "Bernie has never cared about Black issues" or "Bernie talks to blacks in a racist way" soundbites from Black leaders.
Exhibit A:
The guy on the right in that video is a mess.
1) The ENTIRE Black Lives Matter campaign has been about criminal justice, so why wouldn't Bernie talk about that?
2) The details to his plan on racial issues can be found on his website. He's constantly mentioned several of the points on that page.
3) The guy on the left gets it. "What you're gonna see now is the establishment say that any critique of America, any critique of Hillary Clinton, is a critique of Obama. You can love President Obama, as I do, but not love everything about the Obama years, and still want more"
Superdelegates rarely change their mind before a candidate concedes, as far as I know. It's also pretty silly to try to demand that they bend to the will of the voters when the very purpose of their existence is so that their opinions have more weight - and also since Hillary still looks likely to actually win the nomination and popular vote, if the next few weeks go as projected, and especially if she wins both Nevada and South Carolina by the decent margins their most recent polls have suggested (the last gaps were 23 and 37 respectively, so even if they have narrowed she's likely to win).
It's not a good look to get too confident after NH with likely Hillary victories on the way both this month and on Super Tuesday. Even the media is getting into themselves too much over this - Politico is practically ******** out articles that ask "How much trouble is Hillary in?" or talk about her allies "grappling with a crushing loss." It's so tiring to have such overreactions so soon. She's still the frontrunner, she still has 394 total delegates to 44, she's only down 32 to 36 in pledged delegates even after his "massive" NH win, she's still polling like a mother****er in literally every other state even if they need to be updated, and she's still on track. I hope everyone in the race - including Hillary herself - realizes that and doesn't overreact.
I want to know on what grounds you'd suggest he's overstepping his executive authority.
It's not about the number of executive orders, it's about the content. Obama keeps overstepping his executive authority and bypassing congress, which is doing nothing but seeding ill-will and wasting resources as they get struck down by the courts.
Receipts please.
Politfact rated a claim about Obama executive orders as "pants on fire false". They looked into the amount and content. His executive orders have precedent, from both Democratic and Republican Presidents.

When we looked up the specific executive order numbers that the chain email mentioned, we found that they were all signed by other presidents. Also, those order numbers matched up with executive orders on either entirely different topics or orders that were much more limited in scope. Here's the rundown:
God damn it. I am going to miss the premiere of How To Get Away With Murder tonight because of the debate. Are the ones that wanted a debate on Thursdays happy? Yea, Thursdays have more viewership, but they also have more competition.
Every black person should read the first article. The second is ridiculous.
The second article and its comment section are mind-boggling. The amount of delusion has me speechless. I can't believe that people convince themselves to believe stuff like that.
Damn, I've been eagerly awaiting this debate, and now I'm tired as hell and have to wake up for work early tomorrow Hopefully I don't wake up to hear Bernie got dragged, not that the media won't say that regardless
Is it bad that I can't wait until the mud-slinging gets worse for the Republicans in SC?
omg they're all so messy

So far no media outlet said Bernie got dragged in any of the debates

This is the first name I actually don't know today
Clyburn is a politician from South Carolina who is HIGHLY respected by the SC black electorate. If Clinton wins his endorsement she will carry the black vote easily and there's absolutely no chance Bernie even comes close to her in SC. If he wins it then you can see a large surge of support for him and while I still think she will lead the black vote the gap will be closed dramatically. He could *possibly* pull off an upset if that's the case
He's supposed to endorse next week. His son I think endorses Clinton and granddaughter endorses Bernie. So no one knows who he will go for

Interesting. It's funny how much endorsements affect people voting. Idk I just don't see myself jumping in the middle of the Clinton's election train just because Bey was spotted at a Clinton fundraiser.
