    Should black women be intimidated by men into not supporting a black candidate?

    Should black women be shamed by media outlets for talking to another media outlet?

    That’s the policy of Kartik Krishnaiyer. White men and women can say what they want but a black women like Leslie Wimes cannot.

    The state caucuses have collected questions for the candidates and over 100 individuals submitted a maximum of three. Caucus leaders also submitted questions. We hope to interview all five candidates next week and make the interviews available via podcast. There are recurring themes. I hope whoever wins will start listening to the concerns of grassroots Democrats and not the consultant class.

    Until Kartik Krishnaiyer publicly apologized to Leslie Wimes for slander he doesn’t deserve to be part of the conversation.

    I am inspired by Kartik Krishnaiyer attack on Leslie Wimes.

    Our party must eliminate all the nasty black women and replace them with white men.

    We should reimpose a poll tax.

    We should require all party members be white males.

    Kartik is a racist who is slandering a good progressive and a decent publication. He should apologize.

    Think again! I’ll take Kos any day over SSN.

      Who funds this site or Kos?

      SSN isn’t conservative just because you and Kos say so!

      They give progressives a fair shake unlike these sites that shame blacks into submission.

    Do we want to follow the path that got us to where we are? Then we will continue to stay way out in left field lost in the tall weeds. Or do we look at the messages that voters respond to and model our message to what the voter sees as the needs of the community, state and nation?
