My particular thought is that Southern Blacks aren't ready for radical change.
Many of them prefer to stay on the plantation.

Why do you think that matters? Hispanics will outnumber black voters in 2020 and, even so, still a minority vote.
Yes. It's called a property tax bill with 55% designated to the school system.
It's not free if you're paying money to the school.
The everyone chips in claim is false.
Who doesn't pitch in?
There is a large electorate of Black voters in the South. They are conservative and religious, like their White counterparts.
People that don't own property subject to property taxes.
You mean like, Renters?
Because, the Landlord collects enough rent to pay the Property Tax for that piece of Property. It's part of the Expense write-off. (you know, like if the Landlord pays the Water Bill, he writes that off as an Expense)

Where did I say renters?
In the case of renters, those renting aren't paying the taxes unless you can show me a bill a renter gets where they are billed in their name.
Larger, yes, but not dominant. African-American voter turnout is about the same as Euro-Americans and, as you pointed out, there is a higher density of African-Americans in the South, but even in Mississippi which has a very high density population of African-Americans, they only number about a third of all Mississippians. Other states are mostly less. An important demographic, but women are more important and underrated while, IMO, the African-American vote is overrated.

The Landlord gets the Bill. And the Landlord pays the Bill. The Money for the Bill is part of the Rent.
(If you don't mean Renters who do you mean)
Whites in the South tend to Vote Republican.
Blacks in the South tend to Vote Democrat.
So, in a Democratic Primary, Blacks have a large influence and will Vote for a more conservative candidate. I can completely understand why Bernie skipped Mississippi and concentrated on Michigan.
So Michael Moore speaks for you? Not surprising.
Hey it’s as good a spin as any
Any original thoughts?
I've said what I meant. That's when you claimed I meant renters.
So you admit the renters don't get a tax notice. Good. You're starting to get it.
Why wouldn't blacks in the South vote Bernie? Race pimp and fake Reverend Jesse Jackson endorsed him.
