Sanders: When You Are White…

Sanders needs to get out more, I see plenty of white poor people with our Church outreach.

Sanders: ‘When You Are White…You Don’t Know What It’s Like To Be Poor’

Democratic presidential candidate Sen. Bernie Sanders said Sunday night at the CNN debate in Michigan that, “when you are white … you don’t know what it’s like to be poor.”
Sanders was answering a question about racial blind spots when he made the claim.

“When you are white, you don’t know what it’s like to be living in a ghetto, you don’t know what it’s like to be poor, you don’t know what it’s like to be hassled when you are walking down a street or dragged out of a car,” Sanders argues.

“We must be firm in making it clear that we will end institutional racism and reform a broken criminal justice system.”

That's another example of Democrats contradicting their own statements. Regularly, Democrats say more white people are on welfare programs that any other race. To receive welfare, one has to meet conditions that would be considered signs of being poor. Now, one of those that would be President says something different.

Try talking about the food stamp topic with a lefty and one of the first things they'll say is more white people are on food stamps than any other group. Apparently, that's not true based on what Bernie said. Maybe there argument is now that the white people on food stamps aren't poor.

The sad part is that his supporters won't care. They aren't supporting him for any other reason than he promotes "free (fill in the blank)". How many Hillary supporters said they would still vote for her even if she's indicted.

 

[TNHarley]

So he thinks only blacks live in the ghetto and are poor? Wow, how fuckin racist.
Now I see why the left doesn't like old white guys

Seems both Bernie and Hillary are using the term "institutionalized (sometimes systematic) racism". Sounds to me as if both are trying to get the 95% black vote by claiming the only reason problems exist in the black community is because of white people mistreating them. I wonder how they would explain the over 70% illegitimate birth rate being the fault of white people.

And if a repub said it that would be hailed as a sure sign of how out of touch with reality he was

Poor Bernie. He really has no idea how to deal with minorities. He means well, but....
It's true white people don't have to worry about prejudice based on their skin color, but lots of white people know what it's like to be hopelessly poor. It's not about foodstamps; it's about not being able to keep a roof over your head, not being able to keep the water running or the electric on or pay the $2 per bag to take your trash to the dump. It's about not being able to afford a bottle of shampoo and not being able to put enough gas in the car to get to a doctor's appointment. It's about picking up empty cans and bottles on the side of the road in order to buy a second hand pair of boots for your kids from Goodwill. It happens to white people, too.
Foodstamps my ass.

Bernie is working so hard for the black vote he got lost at sea for a moment. He needs to come out with a stunning revelation that his great great grandpappy was a negro slave, or something.

Oh, you get prejudice as a white guy too, believe me. Maybe it's different for a gal but I've been harassed due to my skin color. The fact is many blacks ARE racists.

I cant get over this. If I was black, I would be offended as hell.
His political theater didn't play out as intended, I don't think..

Why is your church giving handouts to the poor? Haven't you heard? That just traps them in poverty.

 

[SassyIrishLass]

Vermont's poverty rate is 12.3%....does Sanders think they are all non whites? The man is a senile old boob

Anyone that's a socialist doesn't even mean well.

$2/bag to take trash to the dump? Where?
