Those dismissive takes are really unfortunate. She has been busting ass for years working to actually make things better for people in Georgia. But hey, she had a state-wide office stolen by voter suppression and naked riggage, so she should know her place…

Just infuriating to read that the Dems have ~zero Latino outreach because they’re too busy worrying about courting the diner patrons of Fentylburg, Ohio. This shit is absolute political malpractice.

The Bernie events I’ve been to have probably been majority Hispanic, even last cycle when HRCstans said it was only white bros.

Non-Hispanic white people are a minority in Texas, Hispanic populations have doubled in OH and PA over the past 20 years. You’d have to be completely stupid to not be courting these voters right now but of course the Dems aren’t going to do that because they’re the most incompetent political organization in human history.

I don’t really see Hispanic people being ignored, and I’m not sure how they are to be courted other than campaigning in Hispanic majority areas which does happen. The Hispanic population is super not-monolithic even on immigration, let alone anything else.
When x% of Hispanics vote Trump it’ll be because they are anti-abortion or anti-immigration, or law and order military worshipping real man coal rolling patriots not based on outreach.
Man, just read the article
Even after the deadline was extended, nine out of 15 candidates didn’t submit answers, including former Vice President Joe Biden.
When the League of United Latin American Citizens, the country’s oldest Hispanic civil rights group, invited Pete Buttigieg to events in Milwaukee and Des Moines, the South Bend, Ind., mayor declined.
When the National Association of Latino Elected and Appointed Officials held a summit this summer, Biden and Sen. Cory Booker, D-N.J., did not attend. Both also passed on a second chance in the fall.
Imagine Hillary or any other candidate blowing off the NAACP like that. They can’t even be assed to have some subordinate email boilerplate answers to a questionnaire. Meanwhile every single candidate is going to make sure they get seen attending the Iowa state fair.

I mean, over half of them literally couldn’t even be bothered to mail it in! Even after they got extra time! JFC Dems deserve to lose to reality TV clowns, they’re just that bad.

Florida is tricky. Lots of residual anti-Castro guys are going to be suspicious of Bernie’s brand of socialism. But there’s no excuse for them to not be pushing for Latino voters in the Sun Belt and Texas (and OH/PA!) This demographic shift thing everyone talks about doesn’t happen if Dems don’t put work in.
Half of the candidates speaking Spanish in the first debate really went over well 
What’s a lot of absurd? What sort of gibberish is this?
cliffs are that mayor pete himself (or someone really close to him like a highschool friend) created and has been editing his own wikipedia article, along with all sorts of other obscure articles (like one about indiana politicians) so that they’d reference him
Methinks the multilingual Mayor doth protest too much.

The campaign director is full of shit. That kind of behavior is suuuuper standard for the crazy ambitious… and her boss doesn’t have any other personality traits that haven’t been sanded down to nothing by his absolutely insane outlier level ambition.
Like if you got a billion people together and multiplied half their talent by their ambition level Pete would be in the top 3 people probably. He’s not THAT talented.
