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:
How about some free tickets to the country of choice in Africa? Maybe they will do better there.
Every thing that can be shook is being shook
ALL THEY WANT IS FREE.
I didn’t do anything to you.
How about no.
Fine. Any living ex slaves should get reparations.
How about some free lead?
President Trump be here soon
My people were slaves long befor the black man ,way befor America existed where is my reparations
My family wasn’t in the country until 1900. Does this mean I am a victim of slander by these tools?
