She’s already broken barriers, and now Kamala Harris could shatter several more after President Joe Biden abruptly ended his reelection bid and endorsed her.
Biden announced Sunday that he was stepping aside after a disastrous debate performance catalyzed fears that the 81-year-old was too frail for a second term.
Harris is the first woman, Black person or person of South Asian descent to serve as vice president. If she becomes the Democratic nominee and defeats Republican candidate Donald Trump in November, she would be the first woman to serve as president.
Biden said Sunday that choosing Harris as his running mate was “the best decision I’ve made” and endorsed her as his successor.
Ironically she’ll completely lose the black vote after enslaving them by imprisoning them over crimes like their children skipping school
Nothing would irk Trump more than getting beat by a black woman.
Man. What a sweet thought. He’d probably have an aneurism.
Man now I want to vote Harris badly now! Obama wife would be a great VP really rub in watch Maga heads explode.
And first Indian or non-white President as well. Don’t know why people have trouble saying that.

Bro…did you not know?
He doesn’t know everybody. Let’s let him figure this out on his own and see if his brain explodes.
I suppose you’re saying that since Obama’s mother was white that makes him part-white, but that’s not really how race works in the US. Maybe it should be that way, maybe it shouldn’t, but right now it doesn’t.
Sure it does. It also makes him half-black. It also makes Kamala Harris the first non-white President in US history.
I suggest you look up the history of race relations in the US and how we used to categorize whites and non-whites for legal purposes.

Its amazing how obsessed you guys are about race.
This guy is a Trump supporter very thinly veiled as a leftist. Just thought folks on here might want to know. Scroll down just a bit and you’ll see the comment where they think that only Democrats are racist and the right treats everyone the same.
Leftists are absolute losers, I am not a leftist, and I am not a trump supporter, but I would vote for him over Kamala. Try again.
A lot of us feel really bad about how we treat non-white races…
Granted, a lot of us feel really good about it too…
Either way, it weighs on us.
Why dont you just treat everyone the same?
The American mind cant comprehend that sentence.
I think its actually the left is the only group that has an issue with this.
Here it is folks. The left is the only group that has an issue with treating everyone the same. That means that the right has no issues on that front according to this lemmy.ml user.
I would suggest blocking them completely as I have done. Their misdirection was fairly well done until the comment above so it’s best not to let them trap you in the future.
Then why have you not blocked me? If I said I was a black woman would it be racist and sexist to block me?
That’s only been legally possible in the US in the last 60 years.
The scars are still visible.
Okay, but why dont we treat everyone the same?
As individuals many of us do. We baked a lot of racism and bigotry into laws and government agencies, and it still has an effect, and has not been thoroughly scrubbed. This is what folks are talking about when they discuss systemic racism.
There is systemic race issues but now it has flopped the other way. People that are white are being intentionally not hired due to their race. How is this any better?
I would understand if you guys advocated for people being preferentially hired due to coming from a hard home, but now its just based on race or other factors that dont define how hard their life is.

Oh this old chestnut. If you are either this uninformed or this disingenuous, it’s not going to be enjoyable for either of us to continue this discussion. Someone else can do that work with you.
