Bernie Sanders believes white people don't understand what it's like to be poor
Blasting News ^ | March 7, 2016 | Mark R. Whittington

The best that can be said about Sunday night’s debate between Hillary Clinton and Bernie Sanders is that it was more decorous than the Republican one the previous Thursday. Nothing about anatomy came up. However, things said during the debate were actually more frightening. An example occurred when Bernie Sanders, the venerable socialist from Vermont, said, "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.”

That “blasting news” site is just offensive, blasting ads the second you click on it.

The term is “projection” and it is a prominent feature of the mental illness that is liberalism.

Really?

There are plenty of poor whites who would disagree.

The major difference between white poor and black or minority poor is that the Democrats teach all of them that they are poor because the rich take everything, but they additionally teach minorities that they can’t better themselves because of racism.

Once you are inculcated with poverty culture, it is incredibly difficult to break free of it. For minorities, it is that much harder. People like Bernie Sanders only exacerbate the problem.

I wonder what it’s like to live in la-la land all your life.

You're right Bernie. I didn't live in a ghetto. I heated the shack I lived in with wood (scrap lumber) through one of the worst North Dakota winters in the last 50 years. I didn't have running water, and to make coffee in the morning I had to chip the ice out of the bucket and thaw it on the stove first. I used an outhouse. I cooked the deer I ate over an open fire. There was no welfare for me, and 'food stamps' was the nickname for a cheap pawnshop rifle.

Tell me all about 'poor', Bernie. I just don't get it.

Poor whites don't drive new Escalades.

Effing Communist Putz.

if you refuse to finish high school, refuse to get married before you have children, refuse to get and hold a full time job and refuse to live a law-abiding life, you will know what it’s like to be poor.

That is so abysmally stupid when, in actual numbers, there are many times more poor whites than blacks. But such ignorance is only to be expected from Bernie.

That’s right; he was told he was lagging with the unassimilated minorities, and he is working to shore up some support.

If he peels enough blacks from Hillary, she may have a real problem in November (since she’ll win the nomination regardless). So far the Dems’ response is, “Trump is a racist!”...

Stereotypes are essential to libs/DIMS/socialists. Otherwise, they’d have to think.

The Adblock Plus works?

I see it's free, but free usually comes at a price?

I use Google Chrome. -Thanks-

One can only wonder on what income, before suckering his way into the Senate, did this Marxist loafer live on? Sanders has always been a worthless bum and a dyed-in-the-wool Stalinist.

He and the socialist lesbian, Hillary are the way to complete destruction of this declining nation. They have much in common. Both have lived on political chicanery but Hillary (and her brain-dead ‘spouse’) have been highly successful in accumulating piles of money and dead bodies.

What a sad commentary on the ability of the American people to understand just what the hell has been going on here since 1912 and the calamitous results elections can have.
