I can shed some light on this as I live about an hour away from Brussels. Over the past few years we've had a rapidly growing problem of racism towards middle eastern ethnicities. Especially amongst the older generation it has become a serious problem. They face a lot of hatred and discrimination so they tend to stick together. That's why we have entire neighborhoods full of middle eastern citizens and you can usually see them walking around 10-20 deep.
Their reputation is also severely stained by the actions of a few bad apples. A lot of people write them off as criminals, thugs, ...
Crime is a large problem amongst the younger middle eastern generation but people tend to judge all of them based off the actions of a few.
It's a vicious circle, some bad apples commit a lot of crimes, racists stereotype the entire middle eastern population as thugs, criminals, ... which then results in more hatred and discrimination towards all of them, which in turn results in more crime.
When you're immediately stereotyped as a criminal because of your ethnicity and have to deal with all this hatred and discrimination, it's no surprise that ISIS can recruit these vulnerable young men.
That's one of the root problems of radicalization in Belgium, the fact they're being treated as scum by ignorant racists.

Ask about the nuclear option, talks about being a counter puncher using examples of Rubio and Bush. Asked again, starts talking about the crowd?
Is he scared or does he not want to say he would use it? Like saying he'd nuke Syria or Pakistan or wherever wouldn't be anymore crazier than anything he's said in the past. Nukes are the line Trump won't cross now?

Counterpuncher? Is he essentially saying he's reactive, not proactive?

Trump doesn't offer a substantive answer for anything, really. The full transcript is astonishing.

True but I couldn't think of a better word.
Misdirecting? Ah he said bomb out and send troops to fight Isis not nukes, my mistake. Based on what you wrote it sounds like he's playing the field: sounds tough for the masses but with an exit strategy when the pressure is on to be held accountable. Classic Donnie T.

Still baffles me that Bernie lacks Black American support while Hillary is thriving on it.

Not to me.
Hillary has spent decades trying to be in good favor with the black community
Bernie started last summer
But in all seriousness, it has been discussed plenty of times. There are even good articles out there about it.
It shouldn't be surprising. Bernie has no real angle to attack Hillary on with the black community, and his current message doesn't land as well with black Americans as they do with white. People wanna act like it is frivolous reason, like black people just don't know any better, but that is not the case.

Most of it is from the black women. Same women who supported Obama support her and the whole "women supporting women" thing

From th mouths of older black women themselves they don't believe that Bernie can actually win the election. They are scared for a future with Trump at the helm so Hillary is the only viable option to eliminate that threat.

Bill was the cool dude that we loved (not trying to sound ignorant)
but that's bout where it stops for me. Maybe I should read up on them a bit more, but Bernie was there physically 'fighting' for equal rights when it was highly unacceptable.
I guess knowing some of that stuff means more to me than others.
