And I never said his record undermined racial justice, I said his record is weak on it.

Why should he have to frame his policies around POC and pander to them? It's not like he does anything to exclude them, and it's not like his policies are tailored towards white people. If anything, most people find pandering to be insulting.
I mean do you want policies and stances that are seemingly only in place for the benefit of minorities just so that it seems like someone is genuinely taking an interest in minority issues? I mean, Bernie is in favor of making it mandatory for police officers to wear cameras, for one.

Bernie was going on based on what he knew as well. Stop trying to wash the blood out of Hillary's hands
Two recent polls have shown us that African Americans actually still dont know much out of Bern. One of those put African Americans at 50% unsure how to rate Bernie because they simply didn't know enough. the other put him at 33%. As the race gets tighter more and more people are informed of Bernie's policies but the reason why Hillary has more people backing her up is simply because they know of her lol
This is hilarious considering someone was just complaining about how terrible foreign policy would be with Bernie
And not just with Sanders supporters. Of course the media won't say anything but it's not going to reflect well on her.
