Leah Wright Rigueur: ‘The Base of the Democratic Party Is Black Women’

RUSH EXCERPT:

WRIGHT RIGUEUR: “But I think it’s also important to actually listen to what these people are saying. And what they’re saying is that it doesn’t necessarily have to be a black woman. It has to be somebody who listens to black women’s issues. So, if there are candidates out there who happen to be black, who happen to be black women, but they’re not — they don’t have our best interests in mind, then perhaps we should be looking in a different direction. And this is what the campaign is looking at right now, this is what voters are paying attention to, but most certainly this is what the base of the Democratic Party, black women, are really interested and committed to right now.”
