OtherHillary has a personality that is as dry as her ? probably is. Americans won't elect someone like that.
Bernie Sanders is a socialist and Socialism is evil disguised as good. He can never have my vote.
Donald trump doesn't like black people and has no realistic policy positions, he just talks ? . -
I don't know yet but a lot of smart people i know are leaning towards Bernie.

Donald TrumpOut of all the candidates, Donald Trump seems the most sincere. He doesn't pander like Hillary.
Hillary is so phony. Her body language looks like somebody told her how to act in front of a camera.

How do you feel about his ideologies & policy proposals? -
Who would you choose and why? -
Bernie SandersBernie Sanders and here's why:
Consistency
Bernie Sanders has held the same consistent positions since the 60's. A long time supporter of the Civil Rights Movement. Not that it matters to me, but he supported ? marriage before it was trendy as a democrat to do so while Clinton only supported marriage equality in the last 4 or 5 years or so. He stood by Obama through his ENTIRE presidency (history is going to look back kindly on all of the things Obama did for Black people on the low..namely working to undo some of the drug war damage done by Bill Clinton and Biden)
Stance on Gun Rights
Gun laws in this country have historically disproportionately effected Black people. Clinton believes in tighter gun laws which will ultimately keep weapons out of the hands of law-abiding Black people. Good luck with that. Look up Sander's record on gun control
Attention to Issues that Effect Black People in this Country
Sanders has released a comprehensive manifesto on racial inequalities and hostilities that effect the country on numerous levels and solutions on how to effectively combat them. Clinton? Ummmmmm not so much. She used the the Charleston church shooting as an opportunity to talk about stricter gun control laws. She had to be pressed for days to even acknowledge what transpired in Baltimore in the wake of Freddie Gray's killing. And again, I point to Sander's record as a supporter of the Civil Rights Movement as a person who actively participated. During this time, Clinton was a "GoldWater Girl" . Do your research on Berry Goldwater. He was basically laid the blueprint politically for Ronald Reagan. Clinton don't have time for you negroes and never has.
Economics
Listen to Hillary Clinton speak about her economic policies. And I mean really close your eyes and listen. She supports giving companies "incentives" to bring their manufacturing to America. That is nothing more than fluffy new-age trickle-down economics. She wants to give tax breaks to corporations that decide to throw the American worker a bone or two....at their own leisure. Yeah okay. Clinton is the democrat candidate of choice for Big Oil and Wall Street so don't expect any kind of distance to be created from the status-quo under her presidency on that regard. The job market will continue its trend of shrinking
Money in Politics
If you get the majority of your money from millionaires and billionaires, then as a politician who are you going to be beholden to? While Hilliary Clinton has claimed to be an opponent of big money in politics she does not walk it how she talks it. She is backed by Super Pacs just like the rest of them. Couple that with the various "non-political" donations given to the Clinton Foundation, I'm sure she owes ALOT of favors. Bernie Sanders has up to this point launched a true old-school grass roots campaigned. Funded by donations that average around $30. He's not connected to any Super Pacs. @jjwalker pointed me to a superpac that was started that backs Bernie Sanders, but even the guy's founder admitted he doesn't even know Bernie Sanders and he just wants to see him in office. At the time of the article the guy had only raised $2000.
So yeah Bernie Sanders 2016. -

Donald TrumpThe reality is that very little gets done in Washington these days, so one shouldn't expect sweeping reforms from any nominee. And I don't think any of these candidates care about Black people.....even Ben Carson, so that point is mute.
But when it comes to two areas where i think the president can have an impact(Economics/Immigration), I'd say Trump is the best choice. I like Trump's 1-5-10-15 income tax proposal, and I love that he wants to shut down illegals. The Dems have been slowly replacing Black influence with Latino influence, I have no clue why so many are co-signing this BS, it's crazy. People need to open their eyes, Jorge Ramos's skin complexion is much closer to Hillary's than yours or mine. I'm in CA and have seen firsthand how they hand stuff over, and excluded Black voices once that's done. -
Donald Trump
Everybody is making a big deal about how Trump says he's going to deport the illegal immigrants.
But I don't see anything wrong with deporting people who are here illegally.
In fact, I don't understand the opposing viewpoint. -

Hillary is so phony. Her body language looks like somebody told her how to act in front of a camera.
So you would vote for a virulent racist, sexist , spiteful, petty and vindictive ? because he's sincere about being a virulent racist, sexist , spiteful, petty and vindictive ? ?
And what makes him more "sincere" than someone like Bernie Sanders who has been pretty consistent in what he says and does his whole career in politics? -

So is that all he said on that topic? Or are you just very poorly informed?
Also is that the single most important issue in your life since it's the only one you brought up? -
Bernie SandersI would vote for bernie sanders but I live in New York State ,Hillary Clinton is winning this state pretty easily sooooo yeah.

And Bernie is sincerely fragile. Socialism is the worse type of economy for Black people.

Basically what Sneak just said. Not only is that not the only topic he holds a questionable position with, it alone is enough reason to want nothing to do with him.
He's not just trying to deport all illegals (which raises issues on it's own) he also wishes to challenge birthright citizenship granted by the 14th amendment. That then open's a pandora's box of the government deciding whose citizenship is valid and whose isn't.
It's understandable that you don't understand the opposing viewpoint when you don't quite have a full grasp of the viewpoint in which you are supporting.
? was sincere about what he was saying and had the body language to match. Don't be amongst the naive individuals allowing that to be the driving force behind their support of a candidate. -
lol yall ? srill votin??!
yall still believe in the legal system too??
or Santa Claus?? Jesus even!? lol -

Oh you're the one that said that same stupid ? in the other thread but couldn't actually rationalize it.
Mexicans are bad for black people. Socialism is bad for black people. But a racist billionaire scumbag is good for black people.
No offense but you come off dumb as ? . -

The wealth gap is greater in socialist countries. The majority controls all, and the minorities get the short end of the stick. In America most of our rich are self-made. Black America alone has $1.1 trillion in economic power(would be #15 country in the world), we just squander it by not supporting our own businesses like Jews and Asians do. The ability to work ourselves up the ladder is the most important aspect of any economic system for Black people. Without it, do you think we would be allowed to move up? Tell me a socialist country, and then show me how Black people would benefit there. I would love to see it. White people will never give us ? . Look at public education, or any public serve, we ALWAYS get the short end of the stick, always.
Bernie Sanders is part of the minimum wage/welfare sect. We'll be Greece in a few years with him.
