Dkos: No, Senator Sanders; YOU are out of touch (opinion piece)

I agree bravenak.

If I thought that black women discussing race is race baiting and that you are responsible for all the race issues in america, then yes, I would be "the problem".

If you bothered to go to that AA publication link you'd find the top comment of an African American woman Sander's supporter, outlining her reasons for doing so. So I do not think a black woman discussing race, and who would (have been) best to help the AA community, is a problem at all.

What is a problem is for any person who calls themselves a Democrat, white, black, male, female, etc.. to heap blame and divisiveness on allies of the Democratic party and on top of that spike it with BS insinuations of racism. I've read many of your posts. You seem to conflate every white male that voted for Sanders as the same white men that voted for Trump, and that is the main reason Hillary lost. While there are some who did this, they are a tiny fraction. You can be angry at that very small segment that refused to even listen to Sanders appeal to vote Democrat, or you can stop inventing fake news and if you can't stomach listening to Sanders anymore because you blame him still in some petulant tantrum, it would help if you followed the advice of ...if you can't say anything nice about someone, don't say anything. Let the Democratic party heal. And that will be done by being open to all voices, particularly someone like Sanders who got nearly half of non-super delegates votes and brought out many new Democrats. Why wouldn't they? And also listening to the African American woman who gave her reasons in that comment. If not me, then why not give her some respect. I think she'd be in favour of Sanders being listened to.
