Summary

Episode 751 |

Polling data shows that Bernie Sanders is in third place in the first four primaries/caucuses. Biden has a commanding lead still despite clearly being the worst pick imaginable.

Democrats have a problem. They cannot win without the Black vote OVERPERFORMING. Yet, Black voters have not been motivated to overperform since Obama. So the problem is, White voters are extremely divided and a majority still support Donald Trump. So Dems should be pouring everything into getting the Black vote and by everything I mean policy specific solutions as well as funds into organizers and media.

Finally, there are several movements trying to convince Black voters that programs like Medicare-for-All aren't a #Tangible benefit for African Americans. Well, when Black people die at a disproportionately higher rate from treatable and preventable diseases, something tells me Medicare-For-All will be one of the biggest tangibles we can imagine --- LIVING instead of DYING!
