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 isĀ not giving away for free. For now, at least.
Read the interview in which Coates makes this announcement on the next page:
Sanders won’t be pres, and can we get real, we are in 2016 we are Americans, look ahead not behind, no one has it easy be responsible for your own life and that of your family,
Wazzzzzzz Up my brothers!
Damn right I’m black.
Right on, Right on, Right on!
If this guy can find ANY living slaves from that period of time, I will gladly pay that person reparations but until then all who cry for this can wish in one hand and Sh!t in the other because I OWE YOU NOTHING
Why is there any talk of repetitions? Are there any people that were in slavery around to collect? Or is it a big lie to shame the ones who DID NOT fight to keep slaves? Seems if they want reparations, sue the democrats, they are the ones who wanted to keep slaves, founders of the KKK and pander to the takers. I didn’t own anyone, no one owned me, not paying a dime to anyone. I guess on the bright side, the welfare and food stamp participation would drop.
Ungodly! This is so ridiculous!
You can ask all you want I don’t owe you anything and ain’t giving you nothing
Just another step to try to encourage violence so Obama can call martial law.
Here is a ” reparation ” for you. ” Used ” baked beans, please flush when you had your fill.
You people ride the system now tell us how the democrats are supporting you with money that is really not their’s to give you they don’t work I’m pretty sure of that because they have done nothing for the people who pay their salary ,so how can they continue to pay you
Surprise, Surprise, a black wants more free stuff. B******T.
