hello Ruprecht,
its true that both Iowa and New Hampshire are primarily white enclaves, though if memory serves me correct, the non-white vote in New Hampshire was roughly 50/50 between Mr. Sanders and Mrs. Clinton.
it is true that the youth vote (i don't know if i'd call folks between 30 and 40 "young"...they're basically middle aged) went to Mr. Sanders, but i think its relevant that most demographics were overwhelmingly in favor of Mrs. Clinton just this past summer.
she has had much more money that Mr. Sanders, along with a robust infrastructure, along with immense name recognition. when i look at actual policy though, i'm unclear why black voters would skew so resoundingly in her favor.
to say that black voters are "low information voters" would be racist - so i don't want to make that claim. the only other reason i can find for such fervent support among black americans for Mrs. Clinton is they've done an in depth analysis of her proposals, and find her pragmatic, limited approach more reasonable that Mr. Sanders...
...but to me, that also sounds ludicrous (which makes me sound racist, once more).
