Bernie Sanders Slams Trump For Being Racist, So Trump Responds With THIS Democratic candidates Hillary Clinton and Bernie Sanders tackled the issues of race at a CNN town hall meeting, just days before the South Carolina Democratic primarywhich has a significant number of African-American voters. We have been dealing in the last seven years with an unprecedented level of obstructionism against President Obama, Sanders told the audience. This comes after Clinton accused Sanders of not being sufficiently supportive of the President. Clinton also chimed in the conversation, claiming that there are racial barriers that we need to be honest about. She then went on to ask a group of African-American women in the audience who had supposedly lost their children to police action and random gun violence to stand and be recognized. We have serious challenges and I think it is important for people, and particularly for white people, to be honest about those, Clinton told the audience. Otherwise, we are never going to be the nation we should be, we are never going to overcome our legacy. Lets just take a moment to acknowledge the irony of Hillary Clinton talking about honesty. Clearly, she was attempting to reach African-American voters. Meanwhile, she was busy side-stepping questions about her numerous contributors on Wall Street. We have spent a lot of time talking with voters in the last week about the barriers they felt did impede their getting ahead, Clinton argued. In a similar vein, Bernie spoke of the wonderful people he has met on the trail. If I ever let those people down, it would be a terrible, terrible thing, Bernie concluded. What do you think? Would both of these candidates be a disaster for our country, despite what they say?
