No. You’re pointing out groups that didn’t show up for Hillary in the general as evidence Bernie wasn’t a problem in the primary.
suburbanites?

Fair point.
If the DNC wants to do this right, they should broadcast the draws like the NBA lottery. The need to suck all the attention possible from the debates. One of the big problems in 2016 was that the DNC didn't want attention to the debates and the RNC took it and held on to the media narratives.
I feel like a Beto/Kamala ticket has the potential to be a Dem powerhouse. There aren’t a lot of boxes that combo leaves unchecked.
Why in that order?
Because people are (stupidly) afraid that nominating a woman of color will flip “moderate” Dem votes to Trump, so make the less experienced white dude the presidential candidate and try to use the woman of color to placate actual Democrats.

Yeah, that’s pretty damn offensive. Kamala Harris is a much better and more accomplished politician than Beto O’Rourke.
And Pence was better and more accomplished than Trump.
And Biden was better and more accomplished than Obama.
People are saying Beto/Harris because they think Beto is more likely to win the primary.
And that’s probably because he’s better than most Democrats at communicating his values as expressed in this article.

I understand what you’re saying and largely agree with it. It’s just a shame that anybody thinks benching Kamala Harris in favor of Beto O’Rourke is a good idea. It’s like Manning playing Grant O’Brien over John Collins level bad, Ph.
