It's hard to imagine that any mainstream Democratic candidate will have a Black agenda. More so, the main thing Black politicians when it comes to country wide elections is that they run away from Black people. Obama did the same thing. They don't want to be pigeon holded into being a "Black candidate." I've said it before and I'll say it again. No mainstream politician will have a program specifically for Black people. It is an immediate non-starter. If that's what you're looking for, you might as well keep on looking. The best you're going to get is prison reform, drug reform, medicare for all and more policies to battle economic inequality. If you want Black only policies, you really need to start a movement for that yourself. Politicians are in the business of getting elected. They didn't work this hard to place their political career on the line for policies that have no chance of passing. That's why all the conversations on this site about presidential politicians focuses on you guys don't want and who's not good enough. I've said it before and I'll say it again. Show me a candidate that you are for who has a realistic chance of winning.

I guess we'll see. But needless to say I'm skeptical. The problem with ADOS is the same problem that ended the Civil Rights movement. At it's core there really is no hope. The biggest challenge that ADOS faces isn't White Supremacy, it's the apathy of Black people who haven't genuinely hoped and believed in change since MLK was assassinated. You find a way to make black people genuinely hope and you'll get everything you want and more. What an individual politician commits or doesn't commit to is less important than creating a movement and gradually shifting the public discourse. It's silly to debate Kamala Harris. Debate about how to inspire Black people.
