For those questioning Bernie's chops with the young African-American demographic... a great conversation that all too often is Killer Mike interviewing himself.

Last month, Killer Mike stood behind a podium inside Atlanta's Fox Theater, in front of a crowd of more than 5,000 people. He smiled and adjusted the microphone, turned and waved to the audience behind him, and then he got serious.

"But after spending five hours tonight, after spending five hours with someone who has spent the last 50 years radically fighting for your rights and mine, I can tell you that am very proud tonight to announce the next president of the United States, Sen. Bernie Sanders."
Part of the afternoon Sanders spent with the Run the Jewels rapper was well-documented: The pair ate a meal together at Atlanta's Busy Bee Cafe; according to the pool report, the senator had fried chicken, yams, rice and gravy. The other part — a wide-ranging conversation that took place over several hours at Mike's barbershop, the SWAG Shop (https://www.instagram.com/swagshop_atl/) — wasn't revealed until now.
