Hillary Clinton
Related: About this forumLet's be frank. Once a sizeable number of minorities can vote, Sanders is done.
His best chances are Iowa and NH, and he couldn't win in Iowa. He needed to win by a good margin in Iowa and he didn't. Young white males are not enough to win a Democratic nomination. Clinton will likely close the gap somewhat in NH, making that a tighter contest, and then we will see how small Sanders' support really is among minorities.

(297,078 posts)some anonymous person on the internet says .. that obviously has an agenda.
You're the one who's "insulting minorities".. they know who they want.. who are you to question them?
Turns out they weren't too impressed with sanders campaigning with cornel west, either. west insulted President Obama every chance he got.. and turns out Obama is very popular with POC. Ooooops.

(30,058 posts)Hillary is very fair and they know where she stands with them.

(10,843 posts)This has been clear all along. Sanders isn't prefered by non white populations. This will kill him from here on out.
I think that Clinton chooses Castro as her VP candidate. This will help with the youth vote and non white vote in the GE.

(5,648 posts)What leads you to believe that you understand minorities?
The test will not be NH - a lily white state
Maybe in Nevada with a sizable Hispanic population - Clinton +13%
South Carolina is the real test - Clinton +30%

(28,270 posts)Bernie and his bros would be over and out this morning.
But because it is held in small 98% white Iowa they move on to tiny NH another 98% white state!
WTH is wrong with this picture!?

(1,545 posts)That the most demographically representative state is Illinois. The most economically representative state is Pennsylvania. How about letting them go first and second?

(7,286 posts)those people at the Bernie rally screaming "She's a liar!!!!" WILL NEVER VOTE FOR HILLARY CLINTON...... wake up people
I think your headline is off. It should read: "Once a sizable number of DEMOCRATS can vote, Sanders is done"
EDIT TO ADD: See post 17 the y-dawg beat me to the punch

If Bernie couldn't win even with a small lead in Iowa given the make up of the electorate there, he's in big trouble.
