Being from California and working in the same building as this moron, I'll say that if she ever became president through some miracle, people need to leave the country.
She's not concerned with anything other than trying to improve her image. She has "look at me" syndrome.

There are plenty of posts where you said Biden was totally mentally fit and competent.
No there are not. I have always said that Biden was too old and that the Dems should run someone younger.
My point in this thread is that the Dems CAN NOT pass over a black woman if Biden steps down. And Harris has never been a popular candidate on the national level.
The "Kamala Problem" has been as obvious as Ol' Joe's incompetence for four years.
It is only a recent revelation to those who are surprised every time they crank the handle of a jack-in-the-box.
Actually (as I see it), the problem is that if Biden does somehow win, we'll most likely end up with Kamilla anyway. I have real doubts about him being able to finish another term which leaves you know who walking into the Oval Office.

I know you are right. The Dems, between back room deals and identity politics, painted themselves into a corner. Some one here said, "They made their bed, now they must lie in it."
If I remember correctly, both Biden and Harris were headed for the scrap heap, early on in 2020. James Clyburn changed all of that.

I have said all along that the Dems already have plans to replace Biden because he might not even make it through the election. Not saying he will drop dead, but in his condition he could decline rapidly.

I don't believe we have any disagreement on this.

Every single Republican and conservative I know hopes against hope that Biden and Harris will be the ticket come November. Just as every single Democrat I know hopes it will be anyone but Biden and Harris.
I can honestly state that I don't actually know a single Democrat admittedly supporting the Biden Harris ticket. But I suspect there's a whole lot of Democrats who are Anti-Trumpers. Me, I'm better described as an Anti-Biden/Harris voter.
The problem the Dem leadership has is how to drop Harris from the ticket. Replacing her with a Gov. Newsome will result in some unpleasant allegations/accusations.

They can't drop a black woman for white man.
Does it makes sense? Not really, but that is just the way it is.
If Biden steps down, he will no longer be able to pardon anyone and Hunter's next trial doesn't even start until September.
What kind of Faustian bargain would Joe have to make with his successor to save his boy? I guarantee Kamala and Hunter each have a firm grip on Ol' Joe's shriveled cojones.

There are multiple laws defining who is eligible for benefits based on race. A Massachusetts court has held that for affirmative action purposes, at least, one can lawfully claim African-American status if one holds oneself out to be African American and others identify you as such. Malone v. Haley, 2 Mass. Civil Service Rep. 1014 (1990). https://reason.com/volokh/2...r-or-something-else/ What I asked was why YOU say she is not black. What definition do YOU use?

So according to your "reasoning" and a singular Massachusetts court case on *benefits* , you actually will believe that "the law" makes THIS woman "black"?
You Leftoids reallly are a special kind of stupid.
Oh, and as to what definition do I use? It's called REALITY, something you obviously aren't familiar with......
....and Kamala Harris is of MIXED RACE, (South Asian and Sub-Saharan African).
She can call herself a Blue Spotted Demopotamus for all I care, but the REALITY is something else.
By the way Fred, absent Obama (who is ALSO MIXED RACE), conferring his "racial blessing" on her, the Demorat party will drop her from the ticket faster than Biden can mumble an incoherent thought.

I really don't dwell on anyone's "mixed racial" heritage because it rarely, if ever, occurs to me except in discussions such as this one.
Additionally, I have never concerned myself with "racial purity" of people. That thought never occurs me on a day to day basis, however the fact that YOU mention it, and in the context and manner that you do, speaks volumes about your character, and it is decidedly ugly.
You and "sourmash" are clearly "cut from the same cloth".... of a KKK robe.

This is a huge point. These kinds of things never occur to me day to day, yet... it's all the left ever wants to talk about.

Why can't a mixed race person be black? What percentage of racial purity do you require for a person to claim to be "black"?
The reality of the issue is that black people that you call "mixed race" still get treated like black people. They know and understand what it means to be black in America. That is what connects black people. And that is why people like you fail so miserably at understanding racial issues.
call a few of the loans that rump got the trump tower falls at that point his empire crumbles to dust
as always FOLLOW THE MONEY WHY DID SO MANY YOUNG GIRLS GET SO MUCH FROM THE RUMP was epstein not killing himself an OFFICIAL ACT ? THE MONEY KNOWS WHY our magat here donot have a clue

Like all Leftist racists, you are preoccupied with skin color and pre-judge people by it.
The fact that you so blithely make racist statements like that speaks even more about you, and yes, it's even uglier.
Leftists gotta Leftist
actually I am a very extreme leftest who was a goldwater fan in 64 but grew up never have been a demo officially or a commie despite your delusions so unlike you I actually know what the center and left of center thinks not the crazy stuff you fear as there is dam few extreme left people in the USA the demo party is see to be CENTER SLIGHTLY RIGHT BY THE WORLD ONLY RWNJ'S like you think they are too far left I was 18 in 68 by then the wounded vets at the local VA hospital a former and current lux resort hotel with a 100 meter x 50 pool worlds bigest at one point and why we went there a buddy mom was the head volunteer wounded troops were not war fans or goldwater supporters more active anti-war and civil rights marchers [ones who could walk] wheelchairs rolled
the same world sees the danger of the rump and the RWNJ'S he supports and who support him now they see the hitler quotes and praise for what it is white chripto-christian fascist BS a nixon rerun supported by the same claim to be moral majority who are not a majority or moral and are the direct spiritual descendants of the white southern con's who you forget were con before any thing else they are who your side was just a bit ago the white citizens klan and john birchers all the old con's who your side lies about while trying to tie them to the demo's of today just one of far too many things the rightwing lies about while never ever questioning any rump lie THAT IS A CULT Gop was a party now it is a CULT

My opinion is the same as the courts have applied. It is not "racist" at all. It is just the only way to address the problem of racism. If someone is victimized by the color of their skin then they are a victim of "racism".
Why won't you answer my questions about how YOU define the race of a person?
How "pure" does a black person have to be to claim he is black?
How "pure" does a white person have to be to claim to be white?
And what percentage of the population do you consider "mixed race"?
