I think u r muddling things....
The reason Clinton won the south was because of the overwhelming support she received from black voters...The numbers r there...U can Google 'em yourself...
So the problem is, by Bernie saying that the race is distorted because Clinton scored big wins in the South (which in itself is just wrong and not politically intelligent to say...) he's giving ammo to his critics who say he's dismissing the people who voted for Clinton...Mainly blacks who tipped those primaries her way....
Someone on his team needs to tell him to fall back on this.....Like, right now...
