        .@BenHowe @mattklewis @GlennThrush Thad might be a sell out, but broadening your base to appeal to Blacks is good politics.

        @Keethers not in a primary. The whole point is to have your party select your candidate. NOT broaden the base. @mattklewis @GlennThrush

        ,@mattklewis You'd win back the White House in short order, that's what would happen. The Black vote is "gettable", in my opinion.
