Have you spoken to Yingluck lately?

Well lets see.  Her father was born in Jamaica not the USA and not in Africa.  Her mother was born in India.  Though born in the USA Kamala's mother took her to be raised in Quebec, Canada at age 7 where she was raised.  She is married to a white man.  Yep, Joe sure fit the bill of getting an African American down for the struggle.  Wouldn't it be nice if politicians selected people the way the sports teams do.  Whoever is best makes the team and color was irrelevant.

Meet Kevin Cooper, a black man framed for murder whom the "I'm so black" Attorney General refused a chance to get evidence admitted that could clear his name.

 

"This is the story of a broken justice system. It appears that an innocent man was framed by sheriff’s deputies and is on death row in part because of dishonest cops, sensational media coverage and flawed political leaders — including Democrats like Brown and Kamala Harris, the state attorney general before becoming a U.S. senator, who refused to allow newly available DNA testing for a black man convicted of hacking to death a beautiful white family and young neighbor.

And again something with hardly any Harris involvement at all.

Just give up your search, so far you have found nothing at all, despite all your efforts.

i am more afraid of Trump loosing than of him winning. he may summon his grass roots militia out onto the streets.  

Some very repetitive troll posts and replies have been removed.

Doesn't matter how many times you repeat the same untrue propaganda, it still remains untrue.

Further instances will be removed without notice.

Nore misleading info, you omitted later action by Harris.

 

“As a firm believer in DNA testing, I hope the governor and the state will allow for such testing in the case of Kevin Cooper,” Harris said in a Twitter posting. The senator, also a former San Francisco district attorney, said her “career as a prosecutor was marked by fierce opposition to the death penalty while still upholding the law and a commitment to fixing a broken criminal justice system.”

Norman Hile, a lawyer for Cooper, said he was “excited” by Harris’ stance. “We should not execute somebody who might be innocent,” he said.

First female POTUS?  Why not Joe himself?  It would be the ultimate gift he could deliver to the woke community by becoming a woman....Guaranteed millions of votes and the greatest inauguration ever....

I'll try to keep you and those like you in mind as I cast my VOTE FOR BIDEN/HARRIS on November 3. Then, and hopefully, we'll restore the soul of the nation. Next up, I want President Biden to appoint Sally Yates as Attorney General. That should send the orange mop afire.

Mitt Romney Secretary of State

I would have preferred Susan Rice, but Harris is a bruiser, and I think thats going to be required for this fight. Trump will start slinging mud thick and fast.

 

She's a smart woman, although she's going to have to navigate some of her dodgier decisions as California AG. Her position on the San Onofre nuclear plant fiasco was one reason I didn't vote for her in the primary.

 

But she'll fight, and I'm pretty sure in a Pence-Harris slapdown, he doesn't stand a chance

Awwww, I just love how "woke" you trump supporters got once Harris was announced. We are seeing a proper epiphany!

What's next I wonder, will you chose BLM as a fixed postscript to your posts?

Does Biden need to convince those suburban women not to vote for Trump?

I guess right wing racist women will continue to vote for Trump.

And anybody else would vote for almost anybody except Trump.

Get outside your bubble every now and then. You may notice usa politics is a lot like groundhog day. This moment isn't that different from past political crisis.

Biden’s campaign has lacked the excitement until today announcement of his running mate. Harris’s appointment has excite the black voters and will bring in their votes that was missing in 2016.

She will also energized the women and moderate votes.

Even without Harris, the polls point to a decisive Biden victory. Harris will guarantee that win and take back Congress from the GOP.

Finally a potential vice-president with proven skills and competence is presented, ready to follow-up old & sick Biden at that time...

I think was the GOP are struggling with is how do you attack sleepy Joe?

 

Clinton was pretty much despised by a large section of the electorate, and as for Tim Kane, nobody ever heard of him before.

 

Biden and Harris are a bit of an issue of how to attack them.

 

People like Joe. They may not agree with all his views, but unlike Hillary he's likable, so it's hard to demonize him like they could with Clinton.

 

Harris is a bit more of a pitbull. Yeah they can go after some of her more questionable actions as CA AG. But that gal will give as good as she gets.

 

Soon the press will go into 'Gaff Mania'. But if 2016 taught us anything, if 'grab a pussy' gaff doesn't do anything, we are way past any gaff making a difference

Kamala Harris was so keen to play the "I'm sooooo black" card that she lied about smoking pot and listening to Tupac and Snoop Dog while in College. Turns out she's so old neither Tupac nor Snoop Dog released albums until after she graduated. Lol. 

However, if you actually read that article or watch the video of the exchange, it's relatively clear that she never actually says she listened to Tupac and Snoop Dogg while in college. She talks about getting high in college. Then there are overlapping questions from two different interviewers: the first asks who does she listen to (present tense). Before she can answer, the second one asks who she listened to when she was high. Looking at the first questioner, she says Tupac and Snoop Dogg.

 

Anyway, even if she had got mixed up a bit about what music she was listening to over thirty years ago when high, would it really matter that much?

No. You can hire whomever you want. Affirmative action applies to govt agencies and corporations who choose that option.

You act as if it was all flowery poems and lovely beautiful letters from your side. I have admitted many things I don't like about Trump and the whole god damn tihs show in general. Either side you vote for you are getting bent over the barrel. Depending on what you do for a living and how you handle it is the difference as subtle as if they use lube.

 

The left has spewed more vulgarities and hatred Trump than pretty much anybody else in the history of the internet. I get that it is going to get much uglier. Do not even attempt to say your side has had any amount of decorum or diplomacy since Trump was elected.

 

At least now with Kamala there is a head above the bunker to target. Let's see how well she fares dodging bullets meant for Biden.

 

Again I agree with you but you are leaving out just how much responsibility he owns in all of this. He brings out the worst of himself almost daily. Don't forget the facts
