So how has Affirmative Action been in effect for decades? It purposely and definitively discriminates against Whites, and only Whites.

Maybe it’s not technically, race based ... but why is Kamala outright saying it is?

She wouldn’t be trying to buy votes ... would she?

Kamala Harris proposes $100 billion plan for black homeownership

Kamala Harris proposes $100 billion plan for black homeownership
Politico By David Siders,Politico 4 hours ago


Harris said her program would “put homeownership within the reach” of millions of families.
Kamala Harris, calling on the nation to “deal with the racial wealth gap,” on Saturday proposed a $100 billion federal program to help black people buy homes.

The California senator said the plan, which would provide down payment and closing cost assistance of up to $25,000 to people renting or living in historically red-lined communities, would help some 4 million home-buyers....
Hmmm.. sounds like an idiotic plan. But on the slim chance she wins and implements this plan I’m in. I was born a white male but would certainly think about coming out as black. Even a black female if that gets me more benefits from Harris. I’m from California, I think that would be doable.

Where does Harris say it’s a race-based program?

Oh I dunno ... about every time she’s described her program.

Kamala's plan is to give people down payment assistance, not an entire mortgage.
Yup..those Black families making $100K-$125K a year just can't afford that down payment.

It’s not.

Just because a program helps black people doesn’t mean it’s not also beneficial to whites.
Nonsense. She said it was. The quote is posted above and was said to a Black Audience.

Why doesn't she tell them to stay in school and EARN it themselves?


Plus, if iit is for blacks ONLY it is discrimination which I though she was against.


Hypocrite to the core!
