Democratic Presidential Candidate Bernie Sanders visits Charleston
Sanders and his aides have acknowledged that he must increase his support among African-Americans, here and nationally, if he hopes to turn his surprising momentum into a serious challenge against Clinton. Just before the Seattle disruption, the Sanders campaign announced that they had hired Symone Sanders, a young Black woman who has been a supporter of #BlackLivesMatter and a longtime criminal justice advocate, to act as the campaign’s national press secretary.
More than 3,000 people came together in South Carolina for Bernie Sander’s campaign rally at the Convention center.
If I had the exact answer as to why Trump and Sanders are popular, I’d likely be a millionaire.
This candidate loves America and American people of all color, gender, religion and social class more than they love a political party.
The opinion was sought by the South Carolina Sheriff’s Association after some schools in the state have hired private security guards instead of paying for law enforcement officers. In June 2016, California will hold its primary elections where voters will offer their choice for presidential candidates to compete in the November 2016 general election.
The senator from Vermont has seen his campaign for the presidency on the upswing as of late with recent polls in early primary states showing him to be extremely competitive against Clinton. As a result, they are glad that Mr Sanders has not launched explicit attacks on Mrs Clinton and her own armies of wealthy donors.
Sanders added that South Carolina would create “tens of thousands” of decent-paying jobs.
But the famously socialist Sanders also knew the key to winning his three-way race for Congress was persuading Vermont Democrats that his hard-earned independence wouldn’t cripple him once elected. Sanders will introduce the bill when the Senate returns to session in September. “Hel-looooo, South Carolina!” she sang out, before giving a brief rundown of Sanders’s platform, including his calls for tackling economic inequality, reducing the prison population and making college education affordable for everyone.
Most respondents (65 percent), however, believe Clinton ultimately will be the Democratic presidential candidate.
It was, as the senator said, an agenda seemingly tailor-made for black voters – and numerous African Americans who attended said they liked what they heard.
Later in his speech on Saturday, Sanders contrasted himself with Sens.
Bump noted that supporters at the LA rally-which he rounded up to 28,000-are only a tiny fraction of the 2.5 million of LA residents who voted for Obama in 2012, and therefore do not show us how many people will vote for Sanders in 2016. It’s what I am saying. “But he’s willing to talk about it because that’s what he thinks is right, and I think that’s wonderful”.
And he says the kind of socialism he advocates is the democratic socialism seen in Scandinavia and other countries in Europe. The biggest gap we found was in the medium that reaches the most voters: broadcast network TV.
