The pair analyzed Hillary Clinton and Bernie Sanders‘ race in the Democratic primary using Richards’ Black Approval Rating Scale, which measures each candidate’s standing in the black community. According to his calculations, Richards gives Clinton a 7.2 because her husband, Bill Clinton, could “walk into the B.E.T.

Sanders got a slightly lower score because “he seems like the kind of person who still calls Muhammad Ali ‘Cassius.'”
