Who will Biden choose as running mate?

[Belz...]

TODAY WAS A GOOD DAY!


MY LADY ENDED UP BEING THE PICK!


i'm sort of excited....

She might even end up President.

Reading stuff like this, I can't decide whether to laugh or cry.

So, what ancestry do they think Jamaicans are?

IDK, here's some from the comments section on my local news' FB feed:

Her dad is Jamaican and her mother is India, but she identifies as African American. Shoot I identify as .... but it does not make it so. Fake news again. Can not trust the media people.

one minute she is black, the next East Indian, the next Native American

so what is she ? Asian , or black, everyone is so confused. Her mom is Indian, her dad Jamaican of mixed heritage.
Why is race so important vs qualifications?

Kamala Harris swore into congress as an “Indian-American”, now plays the “I’m a black a woman” card much like Elizabeth Warren.

Pretty sure she said she was indian-american a while back. Do libs get to flip flop what race they are? Seems like they do that alot to get what they want.

How is she Black but Indian?

I thought she was Indian ???

huh? She’s clearly a Black women. And who says “ Indian” anymore.

Neither one of her parents were American citizens until 5 years after she was born. That would exempt her from running as vice president...or so I thought..

'The individual must have been born in the United States or born to a parent who is a citizen of the United States; The individual must be 35 years of age or older; The individual must have been a resident ADVERTISEMENT in the United States'

Dems did this intentionally. When Biden slips Kamala won't be eligible for president. So that leaves nasty PELOSI to run the country

Mixed race heritage seems to make a lot of heads explode.

I guess it depends on how clearly swing voters are thinking, on the Dem side. They didn't like her for the nomination itself. If the logic here is that she'll be the president anyway, they might as well stay home. On the other hand, if the logic is that Biden is too old to be president, and they nominated him anyway, then they're clearly not thinking clearly anyway, are they?

Here is the contents of a tweet from the Trump campaign

These people are truly awful. Name calling. "Political living will". It's embarrassing.

I just hope it doesn't work.

We can stop at "Not long ago, Kamala Harris called Joe Biden a racist". She literally said the opposite. You may as well attack Warren for her love of Wall Street Banking.

 

[Orphia Nay]

So much for that thought.

Yep. Happy to be wrong there.

I voted for who I thought he'll pick, not who I'd want him to pick.

Looks like I should have thought more charitably towards Biden.

Statistically speaking, I don't think it matters much at all.

I mean if Biden dies while in office, assuming he's elected.


Besides, didn't she run out of money?

Anyone who nominated Biden on the assumption that he would die in office, and they were actually nominating his VP sight unseen, is an idiot. In my opinion.

I said she was the safe, smart choice. But think about how tone-deaf it is for Team Biden to be letting out how dismayed they were the flaws they found. They're implying that there would have been men who would have sailed through without any problems.

It does reflect how far we've come that a half-Black, half-Indian woman is the safe and sensible pick.

ETA: My bad, I saw the headline and opening sentences of the WAPO piece and thought it was reporting. Actually it's a lame attempt at humor.

Actually, Alexandra Petri is a humorist of rare skills. Top tier. A female Cain.

Why?

If you told me I could continue with the current administration or pick a name out of hat, I'd take the latter choice. I'm not saying we couldn't do worse than Trump but I'm sure we would be scraping the barrel to find such a cretin.

God Almighty, these people are stupid. No wonder they're Trumpers.

And yet, that is about American as one can get. Wonder what they would say about me? I'm Irish, English, Norwegian and Swedish. I guess they don't know you can be more than one thing.

She's going to kill him for the money?

ETA: The Idiot in Chief just mispronounced Kamala "Ka MAH la". He also used "Pocahontas" and "Sleepy Joe" in the same answer. What a putz.

I actually didn’t realise until today that it was pronounced with the stress on the first syllable, but I had only seen it written down. Is Trump pronouncing it that way to troll, or because he doesn’t follow the news?

Coincidentally, wrestler James Kamala Harris (pronounced a la Trump, and we know he likes the McMahon family) died this week. Contracted Covid, which went badly with his diabetes.

Trump knows how it's pronounced. He has to. She's a freaking senator who was a presidential candidate and questioned Kavanaugh.

 

[Norman Alexander]

Don't worry. God will be speaking through him.

Out which end?

 

[Stacyhs]

Out which end?

Is there a difference?

No he doesn't. Trump knows nothing that isn't about him.

 

[Norman Alexander]

Is there a difference?

Not in the Trump administration.

Mea culpa. Mea maxima culpa.
