There’s a reason why she flamed out during the primaries.
How do Black women see Kamala Harris? There’s a lot that ‘raises eyebrows,’ one expert says.

When 2024 comes and Republicans have somebody as bad as Trump, will you say the same thing? What about 2028, 2032, 2036?
When will we hold Democrats accountable instead of accepting bread crumbs because of the boogie man Republicans?
How did other VP's do? Folk acting like she's running for Prez.
This makes absolutely no sense.
@Mephistopheles thinks it’ll be Tom Cotton.
Her point was that even though he wasn't AA, there was an effort on his part to at least "get" the culture. He read books, listened to music, moved to the Southside of Chicago and did community organizing and married an ADOS woman. So even though people would question his white mom, they could look at his wife and other things he's done and goThe point about Obama makes no sense. He’s not AA either, his father is Kenyan. The difference is his wife is AA.At least make a sensible argument.
Kamala isn't AA, married a white guy, lived in Canada for some time and became a prosecutor with a record of favoring police. There's nothing that would make people go, she gets us

Good to see you don't care about the election. You post so much about it it's obvious you have no passion about the outcome

It does make sense. Democrats don't bother with blacks because they know we'll automatically vote for them. We let racist Republicans scare us and Democrats take advantage of that.
2020 it's anybody but Trump. 2024 it's anybody but Republican racist #1000. 2028 it's anybody but Republican racist #1001. 2040 it's anybody but Republican racist #1015.
So your suggestion is vote for Trump, then. You talking about 2024 as if that matters. Only thing that matters now is getting Trump OUT!

Obama did what exactly for the black community? When Trayvon was murdered he said “he could’ve been his son”Her point was that even though he wasn't AA, there was an effort on his part to at least "get" the culture.

they’re the same neoliberals.
The point had absolutely nothing to do with what they did while after being elected, but how they made efforts to connect to the AA community before Pres/VP run and how the voting bloc viewed them.Obama did what exactly for the black community? When Trayvon was murdered he said “he could’ve been his son”
People looked at Michelle, Sasha and Malia and saw their sisters, aunts, little cousins and nieces.
If Barry and Becky Obama lived in Glencoe and had 75% white kids, we would've have perceived him a lot differently.

Just so you guys know... this is our current VP
We do a GREAT job of demonizing certain people, but we gotta also look at the alternative (and actually the incumbent).
Don’t like Kamala...cool. Don’t like Biden... cool. But don’t forget to be extremely critical of those in office.
And those of you “on the fence” or influential, don’t get caught up in reading articles with particular slants. Kamala’s record is horrible, she has a LOT of atonement she needs to do. But don’t let that wash over you without finding abhorrent policies and rhetoric from her opposition
Sometimes to get the most favorable deal, you have to be willing to walk away. It’s like negotiating at a car dealership.

If it's Tom Cotton, and he sounds racist, Democrats will shove another mediocre candidate in our face.
Where did I say vote for Trump?
Getting Trump out matters now. Soon it'll be getting Tom Cotton out. Then getting the next racist Republican out. When will we hold Democrats liable for pushing half assed candidates? They had Bernie Sanders twice, who would've been better for black folks by far, but this is what we stuck with.

That's what I'm saying....how will it be getting Tom Cotton out?
