koan,

How can the progressives be the minority when Bernie and Warren keep getting so many votes?
First of all, there has been only 1 state that has voted. Second, in the primaries and especially the caucuses, the most motivated are the ones going out there. With the caucus, it is not just going to place a vote. You have to actually do something else and be there which a lot of people don't have time to do. This plays right into the hands of the people with the most rabid supporters, which, up to now, has been Sanders. Let us see how all this holds up in other states. And Sanders numbers may be padded by Republicans crossing lines to vote for him in order to get the candidate that they perceive will be easier to beat in November.

The more the African Americans learn about Bloomberg's stop and frisk and Bidens 1994 crime bill the more they will move to Bernie. The Black kids already like Bernie and Warren.
Just looking at the bill through 2020 eyes, it may not look good. But there were epidemics of crime in the inner cities that were gotten under control with the crime bills that got passed. The bills worked but outlasted their usefulness. Now, I am unaware of African Americans being for Sanders and Warren in big numbers. My take has been that they have been for Biden in a big way.
