I have heard repeatedly on this board that Sharpton is not the “spokesperson” for the AA community.
So, why has Sanders chosen to meet with him?
How is this any different from Hillary giving a speech at Goldman Sachs?
What will Bernie owe Sharpton? Or AAs in general?
Hypocrite.
I guess logical thinking is not your strong suit to offer this analogy!
You do realize that Hillary has been courting the AA and Hispanic vote forever. And she has not been charging her usual rate for speeches!
Yes, I get it...but I don't think you do.
All politicians court voters. If Sanders sits down with Sharpton, he's making promises. He's negotiating.
It's actually far worse than Hillary's stupid generic speech at GS since it involves a one on one with Sharpton. He'll be beholden to him. Bernie is no different than any other politician. Sorry to burst your bubble.
You have a lot to learn about life and politics.

Harry Belafonte...still bananas after all these years ;0)
Yep, he's a self-described communist. I'm surprised he's still alive.

Get it?
Bernie isn't any different from Hillary. They are doing the exact same thing...except Hill was smart enough to get paid to do it.
She wasn't courting votes, she was courting dollars.

Goldman Sachs = Al Sharpton? Uh, whut?
In any case, I heard Andrea Mitchell on NBC Nightly News that Harry Belafonte is endorsing Sanders. That AA firewall is crumbling.
Is this a joke. Harry Belafonte? I can't even believe that got a mention.

I guess you don't like Sanders
Always be gracious in defeat ...... even if Sanders thrashed your preferred candidate!

No bubble burst! Hillary has been pandering to AA and Hispanics forever and a day.
Sanders was involved in the civil rights movement - this is nothing new for him. Unless you are saying that it is fine for Hillary to court AA and Hispanics but Sanders should stay clear of doing so.

So, I am guessing Sharpton is a spokesperson for the AA community.
Quite different from what folks said on here when we were discussing BLM and his many meetings with Obama.

No, I am serious.
Does Sharpton represent the AA community or not? I don’t care if Sanders meets with him.
