Bernie visibly frustrated as hecklers unload at She The People Forum for women of color

2020 presidential contender Bernie Sanders faced an aggressive and, at times, outwardly combative audience at the She The People Forum devoted to women of color in Houston on Wednesday, as the self-described democratic socialist struggled to convince attendees of his commitment to minority and underprivileged communities...
In a particularly striking moment, host Aimee Allison asked Sanders what he would do to fight white-supremacist violence. In response, Sanders launched into a familiar anecdote that -- perhaps precisely because of its familiarity -- seemed to crash and burn.
"I know I date myself a little bit here, but I actually was at the March on Washington with Dr. [Martin Luther] King back in 1963," Sanders began, as audible groans and jeers broke out at the auditorium at Texas Southern University. One person apparently shouted, "We know!"...
Sanders faced similar backlash when he responded to an audience question about white supremacy by discussing immigration and the federal minimum wage, as well as his sweeping "Medicare for All" proposal. The audience loudly applauded when Allison reminded Sanders that the "core of the question" concerned violence against minorities.
Separately, co-host Joy Reid asked Sanders how he would win over Hillary Clinton voters, including black women in particular. In response, Sanders trashed Trump as "the most dangerous president" in modern history, and generally called for unity among Democrats as well as "social justice, racial justice, and environmental justice."
That response immediately drew more hecklers, as Reid pressed, "Yeah, and for black women specifically?"
"I'm sorry?" Sanders asked, as the jeers became louder. "For black women specifically," Reid reiterated.
Sanders responded: "Black women will be an integral part of what our campaign, and what our administration is about. Okay? And that means --"
The audience erupted with heckling for a few seconds, as Sanders tossed his arm up in the air in dismay and muttered, "Okay."

Ol’ Bernie better learn not to lump groups of democrats together.

This is what happens when you have a bunch of small, entitled groups within your party that are looking out of themselves and themselves alone.

Dems grilling an old white man about how he's going to favor black women. And the kicker is they have no interest in all this "equality" BS, they want favoritism. This campaign season is going to be great. This post was edited on 4/25/19 at 9:39 am

Affirmative Action is the only legal form of discrimination, but they are all for it.

Statistically a non factor
However, black on black violence is an epidemic.

BERNIE: This is not a time for petty divisiveness.
1:36:
ALSO BERNIE: This is a time to beat President Trump and his racism, and his sexism, and his homophobia.
It's really not fair to Democrat supporters how fricking dumb that party is

Shhh, don't interrupt the narrative with those racist facts.
It's obvious what was going to happen when the Left hitched their wagon to identity politics, victimization, and the "underprivileged".
You simply can't appease them all, and when all victim and minority groups are racing to be the most oppressed, well you're going to wind up with some angry losers.

the Democratic party is so screwed. All of their groups want precedence over the other and there's no one candidate that can do that.
Going to be hilarious trying to wrangle them all together to get some form of coalition while ALSO bringing back moderate midwest working class votes at the same time

A forum filled with black women.
That sounds like some level of purgatory from Dante's Inferno.

This. They cant stir up the hatred towards trump for being a rich old white male if their candidate is the exact same description. Obama was the perfect Dem candidate- well spoken and mixed race. Qualifications be damned. Now you see the media propping up Beto and AOC for a similar role. They tried a female last time, might try another female this time, but what they really want is a Hispanic or black person, especially a female to check all the boxes and "make history" again. That's what pulled a lot of independents to Obama if we're being totally honest. Dems are all in on identity politics.

...and John Kerry was in Vietnam! Maybe these people at TSU are smart enough to realize this old commie is simply pandering to them by regurgitating his tired old talking points.

That’s pretty cool that Texas has a southern university too
Southern must mean the same thing as urban or thug

Why?
They're just as fricking dumb for supporting all of these imbeciles.
I think it's hilarious.

He looked absolutely terrible in the video I saw this morning
He kept screwing up and forgetting things
It looked like an Alzheimer's episode
