Blacks want a Black Agenda simple and plain
If I was there I would ask every single one of them running for president one question and one question only… I'd ask them( why do you have to run for president to make change in America for the good of The American people ?)if you care about the American people why not just help them and get their approval rather than begging for it and arguing like three-year-olds…when anyone could answer that properly they will get my vote because only then will any vote matter…
Bernie Sanders on the issues
Guarantee tuition and debt-free public colleges, universities, HBCUs, Minority Serving Institutions and trade-schools to all.
Cancel all student loan debt for the some 45 million Americans who owe about $1.6 trillion and place a cap on student loan interest rates going forward at 1.88 percent.
Invest $1.3 billion every year in private, non-profit historically black colleges and universities and minority-serving institutions
End equity gaps in higher education attainment. And ensure students are able to cover non-tuition costs of attending school by: expanding Pell Grants to cover non-tuition and fee costs, tripling funding for the Work-Study Program, and more.
Bernie got annihilated in South Carolina. Is that because establishment democrats there have totally suppressed all progressive voices. Do neoliberal south carolina democrats promote Biden who wrote the crime bill, smeared Anita Hill, voted for every war, voted for the bailouts, voted for credit card companies and making it harder for bankruptcy, all the horrible things he's done over his long career; that doesn't bother anybody
It's obvious Cuba has opened tourism to USA citizens and the grievance of Guantanamo torturing people, held without trial, and eventually let many go but not before causing much harm. It also is suspect the audience was stacked with paid noisemakers who have their own greedy interests in mind.
I don't know about Amy's uncle but it is a bit upsetting to see deer stands right beside Highway 10 in Louisiana….stray bullets.
The uselessness of any concern about South Carolina going for anybody else but Trump…..
These Media pundits go out of their way to make Black people look stupid! And we go out of our way to make the Media pundits look right! So sad!
there is no such thing as "Free", we pay taxes for it, all this time, the rich/corporations got Trillions of dollars worth of tax cut since 1980's and it is TIME for the rich pay their share of taxes
What people who are talking about how you pay for Medicare are conveniently ignoring is the the government already pays for 55% of he healthcare in this country, which amounts to 30 trillion dollars over the next decade, and over the next decade Medicare for all will cost 47 trillion dollars in total (saving five trillion dollars over our current system) Bernie tax plan will raise 17.5 trillion dollars over the next decade. You do the math.
The media and the other democratic the candidates are fucking shameless. His payment plan has been on his website for years. It took me less then ten minutes of googling to find this information. CNN, MSDNC, Vox, The New York Times, The Washington Post and the rest of the media all have millions of dollars of resources but can’t google, “How Bernie Sanders will pay for healthcare”, and click on the first search result.
Oh they analyzed similar plans, but why not just cut the crap and go straight to the horses mouth.
I don’t know why Bernie doesn’t explain all of this. My only guesses are either he doesn’t know his own plan very well or that he likes to be long winded. I could explain the plan (very generally speaking) in less then one minute, but he likes to wind up to things when he is speaking.
Here is the link to his website if you want to find out how he will pay for the rest of his plans. Fucking shameless.

Who's the big mouth on our right?
Biden would rather go to war with the Cubans. Then help Americans.
I don't know where people get free healthcare from he never said we are getting free healthcare. SMFH… it's call medicare-for-all and we going to pay for it through taxes. And I don't have a problem with it
Our Constitution states that only Congress can Mandate spending and taxation
Article one section 8
Sanders medicare for all proposal is over 4 years of implementation.
Taxes never have….never will "pay for" anything.
Taxes are necessary to use as a brake or a gas pedal.
Taxes DRIVE the currency.
Taxes create the "class warfare "
Taxes create unemployment.
You can not pay taxes without the unit of account $
The unit of account is created only by Congress.
The government is NOT a household or corporation.

Bloomberg is the joke that tells you everything you need to know about US politics. He has not the slightest blush, not a moment of internal conflict or cognitive dissonance, when he talks straight out about buying elections. He cannot distinguish between plutocracy and democracy. These are one in the same. The rich shall rule.
Stay home and you leave the choice of the lesser of 2 evils to others. And the differences will include:
– continued denial of the value of medicine and science (think coronavirus)
– continued support for the wealthy and elite at the expense of the working class and poor
– continued denial of the urgency of climate change
– continued intervention in the affairs of other sovereign nations (economic and military assaults), at the expense of military lives and $600b/year in military costs
Sure, Bloomberg and others will be much like Trump, opening options for 3rd parties and write-ins.
What has Biden done for the Blacks? Obama picked him because he needed someone from the old establishment to win the election!
You have to remove the stigma of socialism. It is not an autocratic style of governing. If you like having schools, a post office, roads and infrastructure, community hospitals and firefighters these are elements of social policy given without any autocracy. The phobia of the word is a hoax leftover from McCarthyism. trump is an autocrat aspiring to be a dictator.
DNC put Bloomberg into the race bending DNC rules in order to stop Bernie at the superdelegate stage. It's obvious!
Wait.
Boos coming from overpriviledged, 2 grand a seat, wealthy f..ks?
Imagine that.
100 % of our population will need medical care of some kind ! It should be considered a Basic Human Need ! Until I started believing in Bernie Sanders commitment to the people I also believed that our political leaders and judges should not hold Dual Citizenship, until Bernie Sanders ! I believe Bernie will put AMERICANS FIRST not America first ! Bernie 2020 !
Bloomberg sucks!
It was out of control because CBS thought they'd get more credibility by running a Jerry Springer style debate.
14:32 I love how even Pete looks at Bloomberg like "ooh she got you" and he kept his head down in the same way that Kamala did after Tulsi ended her campaign.
Cuba aided African people on the continent, and we as Americans are to hate them forever for doing so.
It will either be #Bernie2020 or another 4 years of Trump. No other dem candidate has a chance against Trump in the general election.
I don't like Bernie but I hate Jim Crow Joe! #ados
You Tube had Unsubscribed me from this channel.
Weird!

💜 Hello Somebody!! 💜
Black people have yet to show that they are progressive. In spite of all the talk about being woke, younger generations have yet to prove that this translate into anything of substance. The term grassroots means nothing. How can it, when significant numbers do not or can not vote,for whatever reasons? The so-called woke-ness has not produced any signs of transforming the most impoverished Black communities. Money is not always needed to effect change of certain kinds. The Black middle-class is obviously not progressive. South Carolina had a very good turnout. Black voters overwhelmingly voted for Biden, and how many of those votes were influenced by Rep. Clyburn? Should Sanders focus on wooing Black politicians and Minsters instead of the voters themselves? It seems that way?
Ferrell says Sanders needs Black voters to win, but Hispanic voters may already be more important to his victory. Sanders may not have help himself with younger Black voters, by being so dismissive of the question of reparations, but these young voters are not reliable voters anyway – at least not as reliable as older Black voters especially, Black women. Reparations is not a major concern for traditional Black voters. It remains to be seen if Sanders' stance on reparations and his criticism of so-called identity politics, will work against his effort to attract Black support. Super- Tuesday will answer that question.
Excellent! Thank you! We need Bernie to be measured side by side next to Trump in a debate. The contrast will be so overwhelming that Trump will lose by a landslide.
BERNIE IS THE FRONT RUNNER…SOUTH CAROLINA IS FULL OF OLD PEOPLE…THE IMPORTANT STATES ARE WISCONSIN & MICHIGAN
He's a decent human being who really cares about the country and us who live here!!! GBU brother in Christ Bernie!!! I hope you win! You deserve a chance to be our President!! Best wishes to you always! 👍👍👍👍
Real news you’re not
Just glad it wasn't butigieg. Anyways, I love the way you spin "steyer" in to "sawyer". Lol. Spot on analysis. Keep up the good work 👌 #bernie2020 #progressivepolitics
If they steal it from Bernie again I will stay home. Then we will begin a new party for Progressives for 2024.
Why VOTE for Any of them, Bernie Sanders, Joe Biden, Elizabeth Warren, Trump or Any of them! for What? The Same FAILED AGENDAS FOR THE PEOPLE, AND THE Green for Themselves 👍💯
This is just so reprehensible. Billionaires planted and paid to boo a man that was beaten fighting for equal housing for black Americans and marched with MLK . Wake up people. Open a history book and do some fckn research. We fight so hard to try to really change things and then it’s all foiled by Uncle Tom clyburn
Biden won the old black voters who were satisfied with the fact that "he worked for Obama and didn't betray him." The younger generation that Sanders is courting wants reparations/restorative policy. Sanders and progressives really messed up telling Black voters that reparations is a bridge too far after promising themselves huge (underserved) handouts like Medicaid for All, and Tuition forgiveness. Really? You're going to just hand over $200k debt forgiveness to Chad & Lacey? Their people group haven't had wealth systematically stolen from them for 7-8 generations. Sanders will not get the nomination and whoever does, will not beat Trump. If you want the young generation Black vote, you're going to need to get with the truth. America owes Black people the greatest, and oldest of all of it's debts.
Why does only Bernie get the nonsense about how much his plans cost. I want to know how much the plans cost from the other candidates too than and how THEY are going to pay for it!!
Trump is a master of reverse psychology! am surprised most Americans haven't caught up on this. I can tell you for a fact Trump wants to run against Biden more than he wants to run against Bernie.
What about black people’s votes in Detroit, Michigan! How many did investigative Journalist, Greg Palast, discover were removed from the rolls by Kris Kobak’s InterState Crosscheck in that State alone? Apparently a lot, most of them in Detroit. Certainly more votes than Trump won by.
Bloomberg is not a moderate.
Biden was the architect for the 1994 crime bill and supports cutting social security, Medicare, and Medicaid on numerous of occasions. And yet Biden still polls well with older voters ages 65 and above. Talk about a group of voters that votes against their own economic self interests
20-25 years to know who Hillary Clinton was and STILL voted for her? Can't fix STUPID!!!
The young voters are tired of the old political establishment pandering to the wealthy class and corporate interests. That mess has to go!
Biden should be in jail with Obama, Hillary. They got away with murders of countries on the pretext of democracy. For Black people, you need MLking and Melcom X along with 30 million black people to boycott. Democracy in the US is so corrupted by money that it is no longer recognizable as a democracy. You can kick individual politicians out of office, but what do you do when the entire structure of politics is corrupt?
There are two dynamics there. The Democrats and Republicans. The mob thrives on chaos. It likes chaos. It likes to be the alternative authority that you go to because you can’t get anything done through the legitimate state. For that very reason, I think there’s no doubt that it promotes that chaos. It likes civic distrust. It likes cynicism. It can profit from that.
What a circus. Nothing will be done until America confronts the real source of all its problems, capitalism and the corporate fascists that control everything. I'm not holding my breath.
We now know why corporate broadcasters have exclusive rights to debates. It's for the sole purpose of giving democracy a bad image. Chaos must be replaced with good corporate order. Just watch the debate and you'll see why. The outrage here is all about the format of the debate. Pure manipulation of public opinion through corporate interference in the election… and the Bernie detractors and media commenters should be ashamed of themselves. This contest has reached a new height of corruption.
Bernie wins. Try to take that from the people, and Democrabs will implode…
