There is no leftist among the Democrats. Neither one is in sync with the
true political leanings of black America. When all is said and done,
whether Sanders was at a particular march with King or didn’t meet John
Lewis or is or isn’t liked by Ta-Nehisi Coates is immaterial. The whole
effort is immaterial and it is time for black people to do serious soul
searching and reject the entire phony project. Or we can sit and wait
for Al Sharpton to make his move when he thinks he sees the next
president.
