I would suggest she has a lot more substance than Trump ever will. She would walk all over him, as she doesn't have the baggage that Hillary has.

We arent talking about other races. We are talking about a black women who is black who was treated as black.

you are purposefully ignoring my argument, or maybe you genuinely dont understand. who knows.

2. You should pay attention. She ignores her policy because she can't win on that. She can't win defending the MIC and global financial institutions, she focuses on Identity.

If she's going to do that rather than her horrible record, then she should be called out on her deceit.
If she cant win, why are you here ?

1. She is not black

2. Ok, you are not reading my posts.

I actually believe she will win as the media will be pushing her. I said she can't win on policy, so she'll focus on identity, like she has so far.

Look at her announcement speech. Zero policy ideas, no plans to fight wall street.

Just platitudes.

You dont get to define what is black. it is that simple. Your entire argument against her hinges on that.

Lol.

No it does not, she is horrible either way.

And people like yourself and CNN will push her as an African American who understands the struggle of black people first hand even though that is a filthy lie.

She’s black. You do not have to be descendants of slaves to be black in America. Hell, most of the black people I know do not refer to themselves as African American. Mostly, that’s a term non-blacks call black people.

Stop trying to discredit Kamala. You sound silly.
