They are also individuals and do not necessarily vote as a group. It appears you can\u2019t comprehend.<\/p>\n<p class=\"STND-STND BodyText\">African-Americans have a mind of their own and possibly are able to see that Bernie Sanders\u2019 socialist policies will destroy America. You say that you have never experienced Bernie tell a lie. The problem is Bernie has never told the truth. Although he has numerous times been directly asked how his proposed social programs will be paid, he has never given a comprehensive or straight answer. Socialism kills incentive.<\/p>\n<p class=\"STND-STND BodyText\">Before the current virus crises, the economy was booming and all races and women were enjoying the highest employment in the history of our country. Bernie and you want to change that? Your last line of your letter is telling. You wish the baby boomers to die off faster.
