      Detroit is 80% black and only 10% white, the smallest percentage of any big city in the U.S. But photos and video of the crowd at Bernie Sanders' rally today in Detroit show an audience that appears to be largely white. Hard to find any African-Americans in attendance at rally.

      but the broader demographics of metro detroit are 70% white and 23% black

      The rally wasn’t held in metro Detroit. It was held in the city.

      Which is 20 minutes in every direction from the Metro on the variety of highways the area has to offer. You're not wrong in any way, Bernie's supporters are *really* white. And Detroit is not NYC, the metro counts.

      Yup. I don’t get this knock. Just because the rally was held in Detroit doesn’t mean that people can't drive into the city to attend.

      If they're from SF or NYC or Seattle or any other transit-centric city, it's just not an option to them. /Also, I've seen people play both sides of that before. Use the city when they feel like it and the metro when they feel like that instead.

      Detroit isn't a transit-centric city. There's little mass transit here to think of, and the auto is king.

          The student body of the high school where it took place is 99% non-white. Non-white folk didn’t need to take transit to see Bernie. They just weren’t moved to do so. (Or, his campaign didn’t canvas them.) They WILL vote, however. Do you see how this is a problem for Bernie?

          They won’t. They never will. There are only reasons, not excuses, for the Bernie Cult

          And, the same thing happened last weekend when Bernie held his overwhelmingly white rally in front of the majority minority Queensbridge housing projects. Is that what “progressivism” looks like? https://www.google.com/amp/s/patch.com/new-york/astoria-long-island-city/amp/28362681/queensbridge-residents-say-they-didnt-know-sanders-rally …

          That was my point. It doesn't take 2 hours to go 9 miles like it does in places with transit.
