Bernie Sanders Rally In Greenville Friday

Sanders pledged to fight the for-profit prison industry and to restore portions of the Voting Rights Act struck down by the Supreme Court. Bernie Sanders is the candidate that is most likely to support their cause, so why show such contempt for him and his supporters?

Nonetheless, his 1st stop in Greenville was probably the greatest attended presidential marketing crusade events within the Upstate this election cycle, Democrat or Republican. Bernie Sanders “The American people are sick and exhausted of establishment economics”.

He noted the June shooting that killed nine at a historic black church in nearby Charleston, as well as a spate of police violence against blacks. The white officer has since been fired and charged with murder.

But if you ask his supporters, they say the difference between Sanders and other candidates, is his sincerity and that he doesn’t have a SuperPac.

The senator called for police officers to build closer relationships with the community. “But what we must also make clear is that when a police officer, like any other public official, breaks a law, that officer must be held accountable”. Twice this summer, he has had speeches interrupted by protesters affiliated with the Black Lives Matter movement.

Sanders’ stance on civil rights has gotten noticeably more prominent since he was confronted by Black Lives Matter activists at a campaign rally in Seattle. She confirmed Friday that he will meet black leaders in private meetings while in South Carolina.

It is morally repugnant and a national tragedy that we have privatized prisons all over America. Barack Obama after he won the caucuses in overwhelmingly white Iowa.
