If that ad proves that Black Lives don't matter to Bernie, then this ad proves that they don't matter to Hillary.

Shameless race-baiting is something I assumed Brock got over when he supposedly became a "good guy".

Turns out, he's still a slime-peddler, just gets paid to slime different people now.

It's a shame.

But not that it was racist, every ad seems to have a (often noticeable) person of color or ethnicity in it.
