Well he’s old...

He doesn’t have the brain cells he used to have, and his views are those from childhood.

Just ask the muslim in chief about views on childhood, he’ll tell you how it is to be black...(ahem, half black) how people picked on him, ohhhh for sad....NOT!!!!

It was the Democrat party that was founded on racist principles.

Bernie should put his money where his mouth is and go lynch himself.

BS knows this is BS ... but this is what communists do. They think (correctly, it seems) that the populace is so undeducated, so unwise that they’ll believe anything he says ... all of his lies (which also makes him a revered member of the socialist Democrat Party!)

The scary thing is NOT that Sanders is out there trying to run for President under the banner of Socialism.

The scary thing IS the fact that people are supporting him - especially the useless Millenials.

Don’t trust anyone under thirty. The emo-hipsters WILL turn you in, because tolerance.

America was indeed founded on offensive [to him and those of his worldview] principles. Christian principles.

Seems the Dems have a very short memory when it comes to racism ,,, especially in the 1950s ,,, and then there’s Robt. Byrd of the KKK and many southern democrat governors who outwardly fought against civil rights in the 50s .

Now Hillary is all of a sudden sympathetic to women who claim sexual abuse ,,, you remember her claim ot the bimbo eruptions , dragging a dollar through a trailer park and that great rightwing conspiracy thing . Amazing !!!!

“Four score and seven years ago, our forefathers set foot upon this continent to pursue life, liberty, happiness, religious freedom, and to harass the hell out of the darkies.”

Funny I don’t remember that one.

The seeds of the Abolitionist Movement were sown in America.

What is never mentioned is that the end of slavery on the planet began with white Christians. Not the Muslims, not the Africans, and not the Asians which all practiced slavery well into the 20th century - and some still today. The education on this issue is very faulty.

In Africa, in the 1990’s, over a half million Tutsis were massacred by the Hutus, based on the narrowness of their noses. (But they aren’t racist.)

Sanders perpetuates myths that support his leftist ideology, and the educational establishment follows suit.

The first African slaves arrived in the 1600s and when the nation was created, slaves counted only as 3/5s of a white.

The first political parties were Federalists and Republican-Democrats. The modern Dem party came in 1828.

Slavery has nothing to do with political parties. Its an economic issue and then thru time it becomes cultural.

Slaves were most needed to grow tobacco and cotton for export. Most slaves were sent to the Caribbean to grow sugar cane for export

The narrative of the left is that all countries should have been perfect from the beginning. As if there were any perfect countries 240 years ago.

I'm sure what passed for countries in Africa at the time were all perfect. I'm sure none of the tribal chieftains committed acts of war and killed or enslaved other people.

Sanders is why I hate leftists....or at least one reason out of many.

Is it also true the first slave owner was in fact a black man ? Were Blacks also involved in the early slave trade business ?
