      This new national poll is deeply revealing. Biden is up on Bernie 33%-25%, but it's what's inside that is interesting. Voters ages 18-29 support Bernie over Biden an astounding 41% to 11%. Voters ages 30-49 support Bernie over Biden by 3%.https://emersonpolling.reportablenews.com/pr/may-national-poll-biden-back-in-the-lead-for-the-democratic-nomination …

      Too bad there isn't a Millennial primary. But there is a South Carolina primary and a whole bunch of other southern states where Bernie needs to make inroads with black voters to win. Otherwise, this is an interesting piece of data that is, at the end of the day, useless.

      Here's the strange thing. Hillary won the South against Bernie then lost every one of those states to Trump. All of them.

      You're talking about the regular season vs. the playoffs. You don't make it to the playoffs based on your record against teams in your own conference, you gotta win the league. Hillary won. End of sentence. If you can't win the south, you can't win the primary. End of sentence.

      I am saying that it is a dangerous proposition for candidates to win the nomination time after time because they sweep the South - then get their asses handed to them in the South in the general - where they lose the electoral college.

          This is why it is so wrong for Dem nom to be deteined by routinely GOP states--we get the middling candidate as a result.

          65% of African Americans live in the South and black people make up the base of the Democratic Party (ask Doug Jones). If you want to represent the party in total, you need to win black folks to win the primary. If you can't win the south, you can't win the general election.

          This is a really good point. Though I don’t see what we can do with it, barring restricting the influence of southern states, but that will probably just make them MORE hostile in the general, and won’t be good for national cohesion

          Dem voters in the south are outnumbered in the general, but they deserve to have their voices heard. The primary allows them to. Im not sure what your point is? Their votes don't matter?
