11. People be like... where all the black-folk at?

METRO DETROIT DEMOGRAPHICS: The census reported 70.1% White, 22.8% African American, 0.3% Native American, 3.3% Asian, 0.02% Pacific Islander, 1.2% from other races, and 2.2% from two or more races. Hispanic or Latino of any race were 6.2% of the population.


So it's still a very fair question... where all the black-folk at? He ain't even at 22% if those are the stats you want to use. Hmmm. Bernie's definitely got a problem. That explains why he's abandoned Mississippi. That also explains why his rally in North Charleston, SC (the one in an historically black church venue, in black neighborhood, in a majority black city) had demographics what were whiter than Vermont.

If I were to vote in a presidential
primary today, I would vote for:
Joe Biden
