Bernie Sanders’ biggest failure as a candidate — other than his blatant socialist, white apologist, and anti-capitalist stances — has been his totally inability to gain any support from the African American community. That changed this week, as he has picked up at least one Black supporter in Ta-Neshisi Coates — but there’s a catch.
He may be voting for the “democratic socialist,” but he’s got one major sticking point that he can’t seem to get past.
Bernie Sanders needs to give him money if he becomes president… because he’s black.
Yes, apparently because his ancestors supposedly endured the no-doubt horrific pains of slavery, he, a man with no meaningful connections to the act other than a fleeting knowledge that his family lineage at one point was subject to American slavery, somehow deserves money from the current U.S. government.
What’s truly odd is that reparations are somehow the only thing Bernie is not giving away for free. For now, at least.
Read the interview in which Coates makes this announcement on the next page:
Reparations. Hum?? For something no one living for a long time did? Check for slavery. Will there be checks for Irish slaves and Chinese slaves? Come on people! Enough already! Get a job! Take responsibility for yourself!
No one alive today either was or owned a slave. Reparations we call it welfare
If that happens there will be war
What has he done personally to earn reparations or free stuff. Go to work and earn your own money.
Your a low life SOCAILIST idiot. Take a walk off a cligf
I’m polish and I want reparation for all the polish jokes I’ve heard all my life ….sound stupid doesn’t it just like the$#%&!@*trying to get something for nothing and blame everyone but themselves
See how many want a free one-way ticket back to Africa…..
Where’s mine? I’m Irish. We were less valuable and treated worse than African slaves.
Dumb..
We were treated worse than African slaves. We were of less value, etc
