Sanders still attracting disproportionately white audiences.

64. I'm Asian and having been exposed to con games much more

we tend to be more attuned to go behind lofty propaganda and look at substance.

I would hypothesize that all minorities like to "see through" the rhetoric.

Hillary is a politician and she is very good at it. What you see is what you get and her flaws are open to see and well- documented.

People like me don't tend to fall for Bernie because he pretends to not being a politician but some sort of a higher power. I instantly knew that it was false and saw through the façade.

The more he was elevated by people who fell for the persona as a messiah, the more he looked like JUST ANOTHER POLITICIAN.

I have nothing against Bernie as a politician. He had to build up a base in a Hillary ocean and he found his niche of ultra left wing people - nothing wrong with that. In his shoes, I'd have probably done the same thing. It was a GOOD albeit POLITICAL move. He could have started there and built up on it ... had he continued to be a politician.

The minute he became a messiah/spiritual leader/savior/saint -- he lost me. People who are passionate about ideology and seeing the world differently, never run for political office -- because politics is about compromises and their ideology is not bargainable.

Thus Gandhi, Dalai Lama or MLK Jr. never aspired to lead the countries they worked in. They just wanted people to hear them and think for a better world. They never wanted anything other than that.

Bernie could stop running and preach exactly the same ideals and I'll respect him more. However, at the moment, HE IS JUST ANOTHER POLITICIAN WANTING VOTES AND POWER. Nothing more, nothing less. Period.

This is why Bernie cannot attract minority support. He is seen as a con man trying to deceive while wearing a saintly costume.
