The latest Michigan primary poll shows former Vice President Joe Biden with a 24-point lead over Democratic Socialist Bernie Sanders with less than a day until the polls open.
Attempting to reclaim its previous frontrunner status, the Sanders campaign hired civil rights activist Phillip Agnew to make inroads with minority groups, particularly African Americans, who heavily favor Biden.
i’ve joined the campaign as a senior advisor; accepting the challenges & contradictions
to my friends & comrades: thank you for the love & accountability.
this is a people’s position on a people’s campaign.
We will leave no one behind. That is our promise.@BernieSanders pic.twitter.com/QyyApLSPLN

Unfortunately, for Sanders, Agnew has a long history of spewing hateful, anti-American rhetoric on social media.
