CBS Democratic Debate: Live Coverage

This is an interesting op-ed-style Washington Post essay by professor Kali Nicole Gross of UT-Austin, who argues “Black women are Obama’s most loyal voters — and his most ignored constituency.” The subhead is “Obama has treated issues affecting black men as synonymous with those affecting the entire black community.” So there’s always the question of whether black voting patterns, which are overwhelmingly Democratic, are detrimental in some way. I leave you to read/think.

Also on Trump, Harry: Donald Trump is the only Republican presidential candidate mentioned by any of the debaters tonight. O’Malley, of course, described him as an “immigrant-bashing carnival barker,” and Clinton said, “I don’t think taxpayers should be paying to send Donald Trump’s kids to college.”
