I was saying to my wife yesterday that Bloomberg is probably Boomer racist. It's that old fashion racism that isn't racism in your mind because you don't use racist slurs. My grandpa tossed racist slurs around casually, and his kids made real progress by not doing the same. However, racism is not simply a choice, it is an understanding that changes your thinking. I don't think that all of my grandfather's kids have succeeded in that understanding. I suspect that Bloomberg is racist in that manner. There's also some evidence to suggest that he is a misogynist too.

I also hope that he performs poorly.

TBH Sanders not releasing his full medical records is BS. He promised to do so, and he had a heart attack. It's quite possible he has CHF. Everyone would demand the same of an opposition candidate.
