White males like Bernie Sanders have no chance of winning the Democrat nomination for the 2020 presidency. Despite that, it looks as if Sanders is going to make another run at it. He apparently doesn’t think his White privilege will impact his chances of winning.
Three years after fighting a surprisingly competitive Democratic primary race against Hillary Clinton, Sen. Bernie Sanders, the Vermont independent, is making another run for the White House.
Two sources with direct knowledge of his plans told Yahoo News that Sanders, an independent and self-described “democratic socialist,” plans to announce his presidential bid imminently. While Sanders has been considering a bid for months, one of the sources said he was emboldened by early polls of the race that have consistently showed him as one of the top candidates in a crowded Democratic primary field. In particular, the source said Sanders was heartened to see numbers indicating he is one of the leading candidates among African American and Latino voters, two groups he was perceived as struggling with in 2016.
The source also alluded to a spate of recent polls that show Sanders as the most popular politician in the country. They attributed Sanders’ strength in the polls to the base and name recognition he built with the prior presidential bid.
“What the senator has this time that he didn’t have last time is he is the most popular elected official in the country right now,” the source said. “That’s light years away from 2016, when very few people knew who he was.”
A third source said Sanders’ bid will begin with an exploratory committee. Sanders’ campaign did not immediately respond to a request for comment for this story.
I really do think Sanders White privilege is really going to hurt him in this race though. The Democrat base is not going to go for an old White guy. He’s just not diverse and multicultural enough and the most important part of any presidential candidate is their skin color. That’s because it is wrong to judge someone on the content of their character. Instead we must judge a person on the color of their skin. This is what affirmative action programs have taught us.
Somebody like Kamala Harris who is half nigger and half street shitter is going to be much more appealing to the Democrat base than the White male Sanders.
