Gee, Bernie, we have been “investing in low income communities” since the 60’s.
Where YOU been? Maybe living in all white Vermont you might have missed it.
Enough. Just like most blacks have NO link to slavery: neither do most white folk.
You are just stealing money: again.
Sanders must be about 100 years older than previously stated, if he is now apologizing for his part in slavery.
We have been investing in low income communities for over 50 years.
A colossal waste of money.
We are demolishing stripped and abandoned apartment complexes we built in the 1960’s and 1970’s for low income people.
It is hysterical that the Dems are running two wealthy,old, white fossils—one a criminal and one a communist—and claiming they are for the little people.
Pass the popcorn, please.
He’s going to apologize for their abortions?
I didn’t realize Bernie was old enough to have owned slaves.
Bernie, you can't buy good will and good behavior. Though it appears Bernie is trying to buy this election with wild promises of everything to everyone. Several different analysts have researched it and said it is mathematically a practical impossibility to fund all of Bernie's promises. (here's just one look at it: http://thefreethoughtproject.com/it-cost-national-debt-bernie-sanders-uphold-promies/) And yet we are going to hear even more great things promised in the coming weeks and months - all with absolutely no hope of them ever actually coming to be. None.
Seems I read 388,000 slaves were recorded as being sold to the US. I am wondering how many AAs have actually researched to see if they are directly related to one of them.
#Berned out.
Apologies by someone who didn’t commit the act is useless.
Hey Bernie where have you been? Have you heard about Detroit and all the other cities run under liberal and black management? We’ve been there and done that for decades ‘low income communities’
How many slaves did Bernie own?
We have already tried investing in low income communities. Well sort of.......the inner cities become uninhabitable, so the gubmint builds and surrounds the city with Section Eight housing.......then when those areas become uninhabitable they build in the suburbs. Like in my area of Ohio, once a beautiful little farming community close to Columbus, that was really thriving.....suddenly after being a part of the SHARING-OF-THE-THUGGERY program, the great little suburb receives STARDOM and becomes the featured community of SIXTY MINUTES......”HEROIN IN THE HEARTLAND.”

No descendant of slaves would even be alive today if it were not for slavery. The genealogical chain would have never ever come together and produced him. If black Americans value their lives they would find descendants of slave owners and thank them.
“By mid-May he’ll be for cutting million dollar checks for blacks.”
When Bernie starts writing Checks for Blacks I’d like him to remember the Irish and Their Plight during the Famine imposed on them by the British.
When they arrived in the USA they were conscripted and Died either for the North or the South. The Irish at that time were abused by all.
I despise the reporters and activists who keep bringing this subject up over and over and over. What does slavery have to do with the current black situation?
There is slavery now. It is not ok the way illegals are treated, far worse than black slaves at the time, who are trapped without benefit of laws, in living conditions and working conditions far inferior to most black slaves in the 1700s. They owe everything to their coyotes and their employers can also dock pay for housing, etc, making them virtual slaves. They have as much recourse for help as the slaves from Africa.
There are illegals, some underaged, stolen from their families in Central America and used as prostitutes here, literally kept under lock and key and brought around to the fields for the men to use.
Isn’t it racist to imply that poor people are black?
It was the natives in Africa that captured other natives then sold them worldwide.
We've been doing that since 1965, Bernie.
