He looked at her gender and her skin color and that was enough for him. Quality was not a priority.

She has quality, accomplishments, and a well-developed intellect - along with forcefulness and the power of persuasion,
and the best attributes of a prosecutor who can win arguments, make the best cases for policy and legislation, and focus on persuasive details.

She was completely repudiated by her own party when she ran on her own. My memory is too strong to forget how much her own party and it’s constituents dislike her.
I can't believe Dems are so overcome with joy when a woman who has spent her career throwing Black men in jail (and is extremely proud of it) was elected VP. On one hand, Dems claim to be the party that cares about Blacks. On the other, they put a VP in office with a long history of oppressing Blacks and voted for a POTUS who was great friends with the notorious racist and KKK member, Sen. Robert Byrd. Serious question for Dems: Do you, or do you not, believe in racial equality? You say you do, but proceed to vote for exactly the opposite. Or perhaps, racism is OK as long as it helps a woman get ahead. Actions speak louder than words, so don't get all testy when someone accuses you of being a racist. If you voted for Biden/Harris, you are unequivocally a racist.
I dont think the GOP has a problem with a VP woman. Hell we had a Black PRESIDENT for 8 years. Im not really understanding why a female VP is such a big deal at this point. I think the dems are more excited that she's half black. Does no one care that she's also half Indian? Indians have rarely held positions in US politics

According to progressives, certain races matter more than others. We have come full circle when progressives carry the banner of racism.
