Twelve years after Obama, the concept of a multi-racial candidate still short-circuits white supremacist wingnut brains.

She should have ran as a Jamaican. That would have been impressive.

The only people who care are people who care about race. You know...liberals.

Hmmm.

Q: What do you mean by an "invasion" in the suburbs if VP Joe Biden is elected?

President Trump: "They're going to destroy suburbia. And 30 percent of the people in suburbia are minorities. They say 35 percent, but I like to cut it lower."

And what does this have to do with Harris?

Did the point of my comment sail over your head?

Trump isn't a liberal. Trump is openly campaigning on limiting an "invasion" of minorities in the suburbs. Trump the racist cares about race.

she has never been an african american on either side of her family.

So she does not have black ancestry and is not a citizen of this country?

Why are you talking about Trump? This thread is about Harris.

So the OP is a Liberal?

Sent from my Honor 8X

No. I think he's just pointing out the hypocrisy of the liberals.

Did you even read the OP?

Why are you guys so concerned about minorities living in the suburbs?

yawn...

Even when your deflection is shown to you and the entire forum, you continue.

Have you no shame?

You are dismissed. (see my sig)

I agree race is a pretty ill-defined concept.

The more you try to narrow it down, the fuzzier the lines get.

people're weird

and here we are, we have "races"
in the US we dropped the one-drop rule
we never replaced it with any "official" rule I know of


Is there some reason why Harris is disqualified from calling herself black?

You guys think minorities living in the burbs is an "invasion" and you're asking if I have no shame?

I'm going to fantasy land but wouldn't it be fun if there were an instant DNA detector on your phone. When people you meet start talking about "Those people", you could hold up your phone and point out: "Ah..what's these bars regarding some of your ancestors who lived in (Insert "Those people" here)..
