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:
This is a slap in the face of millions of people who have worked their butt off maybe holding down two jobs to provide for family without ever drawing a dime from the government…Obama has created more of them and yet the coffers are empty! Where will all this money come from? There goes the tax increase and to say WHERE DOES FAIRNESS COME IN IN THE LOPSIDED ENDEVOR!
How about reparations for the Slavic people, slaves for centuries. The word ” slave ” comes from Slavic. I am part Slavic, where is my reparations? Don’t forget African people were sold into slavery by their own people. It’s about time to start putting the blame on their own race.
F**k them all
Hell NO
MO FREE STUFF…..2016
i quess you cant read to well it was a black man that first started slavery get over assholes
LP
my Irish ancestors MIGHT have been slaves, I want reparation too..$#%&!@*off
Most of”blacks today are not directly related to Africa……Many of geneolgy companies and. other places people use to discover their roots.. like. county courthouses ect..finding our abour your past can get very expensive……..BESIDES THERE WERE REPARATIONS AFTER CIVIL WAR. …
Yes… it’s a nonsense argument… they think that they’ve got it so bad… they need to go to Africa and see the living conditions that they have there… they might have a better appreciation of what they have here, and do something instead of complaining all the time… it’s not all of them either… just the ones crying all the time, playing the race card…
