| While I don’t agree with Trump or any Republicans for that matter about anything, it’s fair to ask why the Democratics can't offer actual "Foundational Black Americans" as candidates instead of elite children of foreign-born academics. |
She lived in the Bay Area for a while. Read up on her young years there, and how she was influenced by the Black populace there. She went to an African American church in Oakland, for example. She more than likely was surrounded by "ebonics" when she was younger. |
For the same reason Rs only offer up rich white people. |
What Church did she and her white Jewish husband marry in? |
Were Obama's parents "foreign born academics"? His father was foreign born, but he wasn't an "academic", afaik. |
Why does that matter? A PP questioned Harris' history and how nothing in her past would make her speak like a "sista" from GA. Where she got married is irrelevant to that. |
|
Ridiculous. I lived in the Bay Area when Harris was DA and AG, and we all knew she was half black, and she spoke about being both. |
| ^ and I didn't vote for her then but I will in Nov because Trump is so much more worse. |
| Wow... |
There are plenty of "foundational black Americans" in the leadership ranks of the democratic party and elective office. Start with the House leadership and then look at members of the House and various mayors, and state assembly/council/senate leaders. This isn't hard. |

When one is bi-racial/bi-cultural, it doesn't mean, in this case, haaving curried collard greens for dinner. Sheesh. I guess the GOP is just discovering that race is a construct.
