[QUOTE="Frank Underwood, post: 173438, member: 35"] If it wasn't for the media's relentless spin that Bernie's agenda "doesn't connect with minorities," and that he can't beat Trump because he's a "radical socialist," he'd probably be leading right now. According to the polls, his policies have certainly become mainstream. But like Hillary, Biden's being framed as the pragmatic alternative willing to "work across the aisle." And by that, I mean willing to push through the GOP's agenda. Of course, he's co-opted the term "progressive," even hilariously referring to himself as "the most progressive candidate." I'm sure that's sufficient for a number of voters who are unwilling to research the candidates' backgrounds. However, now that Biden's role in crafting the 1994 crime bill and his work with segregationists has received mainstream attention, I could see Kamala Harris being next in line. She certainly checks off all the boxes the establishment cares about. A woman of color who was "tough on crime" and is willing to work with big money donors, yet knows how to give mealy-mouthed lip service to the populist progressive agenda. [/QUOTE]
