John Lewis Got Biden!

Biden got the endorsement of John Lewis.

A huge endorsement for former vice president Joe Biden. The Democratic frontrunner has secured the endorsement of Rep. John Lewis (D-GA), the longtime lawmaker and civil rights activist.

Lewis is the 38th member of the Congressional Black Caucus to officially back the former vice president's campaign for the Democratic nomination.

"It is my belief that we need Joe Biden now more than ever before. He will be a great president. He will lead our country to a better place. He will inspire another generation to stand up, to speak up and to speak out. Be brave, to be hold. That's why I'm committed to support him."

In announcing his support, Lewis paired his endorsement with a public recommendation that BIden pick a woman of color as his running mate.

"I think [former] Vice President Biden should look around. It would be good to have a woman of color," Lewis said on a conference call to tout his endorsement with reporters when asked about the subject.

Before the coronavirus had sideline the campaign, Lewis was urging Blacks to vote. He had helped register new voters. Lewis has Stage IV cancer in his pn

Lewis, 80, is in poor health, pledged to travel the country to drive up support for Biden, particularly among Black voters. He describes Biden as "a friend, a dear friend. He is a man of courage, a man with a great conscience, a man of faith."

Ailing from cancer, Lewis made the endorsement on Tuesday.

The endorsement from Lewis is huge for Biden and a big blow to the remanments of Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-VT).

Sanders' insufferable supporters are attacking Lewis for endorsing Biden over him.

And they wonder why Sanders isn't winning this nomination fight?

Well it's obvious!

I only assume the Bernie Bros will push the narrative that Sanders marched with Martin Luther King, Jr. in Selma. No he did not. The photo that is circulating around the social media is fake.

Sanders skipped the 55th anniversary of the Bloody Sunday March. It proved to be a blow to his outreach to the Black voters of the South.

Biden has pulled a strong support among Black voters. Now that Michael Bloomberg dropped out, the former vice president managed to wrangle up the Black support overwhelmingly over Sanders.

Biden called Lewis, "one of my heroes," praising the courage and sacrifice in the fight for civil rights, especially as a part of the Bloody Sunday marches in Selma, Alabama. The Bloody Sunday march happened in 1965 where civil rights leaders were attacked by the law as they crossed the Edmund Pettus Bridge. The march across the bridge was a stand against the racism of the South. The Selma to Montgomery march was dangerous.

Biden has strengthen his lead in the delegate count. Despite Wisconsin moving forward with their primary, Biden still looks favorable to beat Sanders.

Sanders won Wisconsin in 2016.

Sanders has not conceded the race.
