He could very well still lose and it’s irresponsible to pretend he’s got it in the bag. The same thing happened in 2016 with everyone assuming Tr*mp would lose. I mean come on. People need to vote, and be able to. This election is going to be one of the biggest clusterf*cks ever. Stop assuming things. uhhh, not really... you should look up Alan Lichtman's keys to the White House and how predictions are made. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Spoiler Actually, I do think that being a woman of color positions you to be an inherently better leader. Can you imagine how much more qualified Kamala had to be than her white peers to reach her level of success? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I love to know. The way you’ve already tried this and I’m still here... can you come up with something else.gif And literally what are you on about? John McCain was the 2008 Republican nominee after Bush. Obama really did come out of nowhere and slayed with his Warren-esque campaign in 2008. By your logic, Al Gore or **** Cheney would have been president in 2008... Point being, I don’t get the confidence at all but anyway... What? You aren’t “we”. Correct. Bush was Republican and served for eight years. Obama was not running after being VP, like Harris will be doing. Gore was selected as the nominee...and did win (but then the SC stepped in) The VP is usually the choice for the next nominee, unless they don’t run. (Like Biden did not in 2016 and Cheney did not) To completely start over four years for now, would more than likely be a handoff to the GOP. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
auburn 1,072 Posted August 11, 2020 Share Posted August 11, 2020 Harris and Biden vs Trump and Pence. US politics is a complete joke. Dems will overlook all of Harris' sh*t and vote for her and Biden because she's a black woman! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
REALITY 80,166 Posted August 11, 2020 Share Posted August 11, 2020 This infighting has to stop. I'm sorry, it just does, and I'm so ****ing tired of seeing dozen page threads with [majority] Dems fighting each other over who the best candidate is, who the worst candidate is, how candidate 'x' is a piece of ****, how candidate 'y' is godsend, etc., etc., etc. I would have loved nothing more than to have a different presidential nominee and a different VP candidate, but this is who we got right now and we, as Democrats, need to come together to make sure Trump gets out of the White House. I'm not a fan of Joe Biden, I'm not a fan of Kamala Harris, but it is imperative that we vote for them in November. Trump has destroyed this country in 3 and a half years and it will only get worse if he gets re-elected. I'm not saying that you shouldn't criticize someone's record, I'm not saying that you shouldn't have the right to not feel okay with a particular candidate, because you 100% have the right to feel that way. That said, the political spectrum is just that: a spectrum. The majority of people here and the majority of people in this thread are left leaning. Now, if I had it my way, I would push the Democratic Party to be much, much more progressive, but our enemy shouldn't be other people in the party who are also left leaning, but with more moderate values. People like my parents hate the idea of Kamala Harris being VP just for the simple fact that she's a person of color. If you cannot recognize that we should fight people like them instead of having our own discussions about our varying left-leaning ideologies, then that is a very privileged mindset, to be frank. Some of y'all don't recognize how lucky y'all are to have discussions about which woman of color candidate you'd like to see be VP instead of having to have discussions with your parents or other people in your life about how having a WOC VP candidate is just as valid as having a white male for VP.

Say it with your whole mouth that you're mad at Black People. Biden was 4th place among White young Progressives like yourself and he was first among the Black primary voters. So unless you want to spout some racist sh*t, then sit down and eat your cake. im so f**king tired of non black people telling people that we voted for biden and then try to use that as a "gotcha". you're using black people as a meatshield to foward your agenda. i and the majority of young black voters did not vote for biden in the primaries. you are disgusting and are not helping black people in any way shape or form.

No one said anything about that first bit so I don't know where you got the idea that the left doesn't condemn racists, and it is absolutely not a "privileged" position to be a leftist when the entire political system is actively working against us and our ideology. We have student loan debt that we'll never get rid of. We don't have healthcare. People asking for more from our representatives are not "privileged" and it's wild to claim that.
