It’s astonishing how much you want people who are half black to reject and even hate being half black. And you folks can’t hide your anger over it either. Lol
I AIN'T WHITE.

I'm a Brownie, Latino, Puerto Rican, born and raised in NYC. In the ghetto and hoods of the Bronx and Brooklyn. Grew up mostly around Blacks when in the hood.

So yeah, I have skin in the game. Right? RIGHT!?

You’ve only got skin in OUR game if you’re black. Being “Brown” and having a few beers with black folks doesn’t give you skin in the same game. You’re not black, so you may as well be white or whatever. I don’t care.

Now if you’re claiming Afro Latino status, that’s different. But you were careful not to say that, which means that you are a white Hispanic/Latino.

So you’re still an outsider as if you’re Norwegian or Irish. Lol

She surely could’ve attended college right in California. Why would she go all the way across the country to Howard if she really doesn’t identify with being black? Why was she the president of the Black Law Students Association at UC-Davis if she didn’t identify with being black?

And again, why be part of the Divine 9 if she doesn’t wanna be black?

Moreover, why do you folks get so butthurt when biracial blacks identify more with their African American side? What’s that all about?

Pretty sure every career politician is a pathological liar. It's a way of life for them.

My friend I'll have to pass on voting straight democratic ticket. LOL There just aren't that many I would vote for, for any reason. Biden is one that will never get my vote, just like Trump won't.

You are definitely a conservative, just not a Trumpie.

Unfortunately, you are alone in the desert. There are others, but they are few in number. The GOP has turned into the 'C' word.

That's it, that's all. There's nothing worth a pretty penny that anyone can say with great enthusiasm as to why they are voting for either of these people. And its EVIDENT that there's no support.

-Kamala got squashed in the first presidential debates by dang near everyone. Tulsi Gabbard slaughtered her, yet Kamala Harris still gets the vice--or lets be honest--presidential gig.

-It goes without saying that Biden is dang near worthless. You can say the presidential debate was a dumpster fire and I would agree. However, Trump STILL wins. Biden had Chris Wallace on his side and at the end of the day, everyone was talking about Trump. Good or bad everyone was talking about Trump. Biden had absolutely NOTHING of substance to say during the debate. Of course he told Trump to "shut up!" but how is that a strong talking point? It's typical Sleep Joe, just being combative when he gets angry.

-Most of us know Kamala's dirty history and her failed history with the black demographic.

-The Biden-Harris AKA Kamala Harris rallies has been DEAD, DEAD, DEAD. Who's going to them? Who wants to go to them? In all my life seeing presidential rallies, NONE of have been as dead as the Biden AKA Kamala Harris rallies. You can say what you want about other presidential candidates in the past and whether you hate or love them. At least they drew crowds of some degree! The whole "COVID concerns" and "safety" excuses can be thrown out the window. Trump is having MASSIVE rallies, even after having the COVEED. You can say the Trump supporters have a death wish all they want but Trump has massive support and enthusiasm at his rallies.


-Besides that one farmer in North Dakota who mowed a big Biden-Harris sign, there's really nothing exciting about them. I drive, walk, run, bike around many cities, towns, hamlets and I see little to no Biden-Harris signs. If anything, I see more local politician enthusiasm, whether it be democratic or not.

-The few people I know who are voting for Kamala Harris don't even care about her/Biden. They can't even name anything they like about them.


Andrew Yang, Tulsi Gabbard, The most pure Native American chick Elizabeth Warren, Pete Buttiege, Corny Booker I mean Cory Booker, The most Mexican man in the world Beta O'Rourke, I mean Beto, I can see having much more enthusiasm and support behind them. I can see a lot of Cringe fest happening with most the aforementioned candidates but they'll at least have a strong enough following.

With all this being said, I don't see how Biden AKA Kamala Harris wins without voter fraud and/or something screwy happening at the elections. The polls are BS, the enthusiasm, excitement and support CLEARLY isn't there. No nobody wants to show up!!
This continued fixation on rallies is so odd to me.
Have you seen the lines of people waiting hours to cast their votes?

Why waste time at a rally when you can show real support by voting?

This.

But since people can’t get past the rallies:

“ Joe Biden offered a stark contrast to President Donald Trump during a visit to Broward County Tuesday, keeping his mask on as he courted seniors in Pembroke Pines and firing up supporters at a drive-in rally in Miramar that featured honking horns rather than cheers.”
