CBC Chair @KarenBassTweets said @BernieSanders did not ask for her endorsement & Biden did. She said: "Sen. Sanders called one time. We didn’t have a conversation. He was inviting me to meet with him. But it was at the last minute, I wasn't able to do it, and I never heard back."
.@KarenBassTweets said the coronavirus crisis illustrates why @JoeBiden would be a better president than Trump. “More than anything to me, his knowledge of international leaders, and his overall presence and standing is just exactly what we need right now,” she said of Biden.
.@GKButterfield, former CBC chair: I am not sure @BernieSanders has "ability to connect w/ the soul of African Americans who reside in the south."
He wants Bernie to end campaign soon. “It's like different stages of death. You have to work through different stages of defeat."
