Black people aren't monolithic, younger black voters want Bernie to be their voice. Support is very much split among younger voters and older voters of really every race and ethnic group. Though an exception is that Latin voters young and old support Bernie overwhelmingly.

In a perfect world incrementalism would've been preferred by most but we've squandered our time and so now we don't have that luxury anymore. Our home is at stake.

If there wasn't so much at stake and if I wasn't a trans poc I would be happy with voting for Biden. But the world is too fucked up now, we desperately need change to happen and not from the top down, from the bottom on up.

Honey I was making light of the convo, but honestly there are economists that agree with Sanders and some that don't. Unless there are an undeniable unanimous majority on one side, the decision to support or not support his proposals are completely personal and yours to make. And it sounds like you don't.

Some are from his 2016 platform and some are from a few weeks or days ago. I'm not sure when he published that plan cause there are no dates on his site.

These are two recent ones which are probably after he published that. https://www.cnbc.com/2020/01/22/wharton-study-bernie-sanders-wealth-tax-would-fall-1-trillion-shy.html 

https://www.theatlantic.com/politics/archive/2020/02/sanderss-pricey-tax-and-spending-plans/607105/

The first basickly says that Bernies estimate for his wealth tax only  are 1-1.5 trillion off. It also mentions that Biden is 600-900 million off.

Second link mentions that all of Sanders taxes would generate 29 trillion in 10 years and thats 25 trillion short of where it needs to be.

So, left people like Cenk care for the result and are passionate, because they know the policies in the US are killing people. Centrists are relaxed and centered, because their rich interest groups still will be rich. So yeah, leftist will be more fired up.

As a reminder: late fall Warren was improving and often in second place. Not the leftists squandered her chance, but Warren herself by going soft on medicare and instead of unifying starting to attack both centrists as leftists. You and many other centrists are so fast to blame progressive for everything going wrong for a candidate, but the reality is, that each voter only has to listen to their own reasons. If a candidate fails to win them over, it is the fault of the candidate. It was 2016 Hillaries fault to lose to Trump, it is Warrens fault she lost her lead and it is als Sanders fault that he squandered his polling lead.

But never ask for compromise over policies that are killing people. "Oh let's compromise. Instead of killing everyone, we only kill every second one. That you must agree with, right?"

Cenk (like Bernie) told you in 2016 to vote for the same candidate that was endorsed by GH Bush, Jeb Bush, Bill Kristol, Colin Powell, Paul Wolfowitz, David Frum, Jonah Goldberg, Erik Erikson, Max Boot, Glenn Beck, etc.

Cenk crushed the attempt of his workers to form a union at TYT.

TYT is swimming in corporate money from google and hedge-funds ($20M from L Capital, Greycroft, E.ventures, WndrCo)

It's a con and now he got 5% when he faced a real audience.

So it's not just conservatives who complain about the mainstream media. Nice little moment of solidarity is in there somewhere.

Warren is out, 2 person race (with a side of Tulsi) which is good. This is actually really good right now.

And here you are again with your fictional analysis. As always, it's easy to dismantle.

1. While I am sure you can create a list of arbitrary points while you think Obama was more progressive than Clinton, it's a fiction. They are relatively equal in terms of progressiveness. You base your criteria/purity tests on bullshit, created only to serve your culty Bernie fandom and has no place in reality.

2. Your second point has already been thoroughly disproven. Bernie Sanders already lost to Hillary Clinton and Joe Biden. He consistently under-performs by a high margin when compared to the opinion polls.

You are creating this fantasy account of how social progress has happened, and it goes against historical data. You're not a progressive, most of your posts are anti-progressive and attacks on the left. People like you do WAY more to hurt the progressive movement than help it.

Left or right, all cults of personality are a cancer on democracy. When the left has so-called "supporters" like this Bernie Cult (which he never asked for), who needs enemies? The Bernie or Bust/Bernie Bros/whatever they want to call themselves are, for all intents and purposes, helpful for the Republican party; they’re useful idiots for Trump.

No matter how 

So Warren drops out but Tulsi Gabbard is still in the race. What exactly is the point for Gabbard to stay in the race other than taking votes from Bernie?
