@KHiveQueenB @MSNBC I think he over-estimates himself and his ability. For the mayor of a town of 100,000 who has never held statewide or federal office to assert himself as the best candidate for president is hubris. Despite his attendance at Oxford and Iraq War experience, he has a very parochial
@KHiveQueenB @MSNBC worldview. I also think if he were half as smart as he thinks he is, he would have down outreach to Black and Latino people in South Bend before launching. I think if he had the rectitude he pretends he has, he would have spent more of money he raised for Democratic candidates
@KHiveQueenB @MSNBC on Democratic candidates and not on amplifying his reputation and his "brand." People donated to elect 2018 Democratic candidates, not to burnish his reputation for a national candidacy.
@KHiveQueenB @MSNBC If he were as smart as he thinks he is, he would know that there is no equivalence between being gay and being Black. There is oppression against both groups, but they operate differently.
@KHiveQueenB @MSNBC It also appalls me that someone who had such a privileged education still buys into the respectability politics idiocy. Sorry, I don't care if he learned to read Norwegian to read a book. Perhaps he should have read a different book.
@KHiveQueenB @MSNBC One book he could have read, since it's old, is "The Culture of Make Believe" by Derrick Jensen
