Kamala Harris, it is.**

What an idiotic tweet. Indians are lining up to own her as our own, while she has chosen to be identified as an African American with Christian values, nothing wrong with that, but Indians are idiotic enough to claim her ancestry. 
 

 

She may claim to represent African Americans, but in no way does she really represent them.  Her ancestors were not enslaved by American slaveholders, her childhood was spent in the relative comfort of an upper middle-class home and she grew up unlike most African American kids.  Now, that alone is not disqualifying, but it is laughable for her to try and claim to represent them.  FWIW, I felt the same thing about Obama - the son of a Kenyan elite and a middle-class white mother, the only thing he shared with AAs is his looks.   

 

Does she really represent Indian-Americans?  Who knows?  The TamBrahms are all excited, that's all I know :-).  Of course, they probably spent their whole lives criticizing her mom for marrying a Black guy and Kamala herself for having live-in relationships with other politicians.  But, now that she has accomplished this, she is one of us!  

 

My first choice was Tammy Duckworth, but she was born in Thailand, so wouldn't be eligible to be President if ya know ... 

 

It would also have been apt to pick a Southern Black woman like Keisha Lance-Bottoms or Stacey Abrams who know what it is like to be Black in America.  But he went for name-recognition and fund-raising prowess. 

 

Biden-Harris' most important qualification:  Not Trump.

American Indians should do their due diligence, just don't go by someone with an Indian name. Many Indian origin senators both in Europe, US have turned out to extremely pro-Pakistan....

On a broader note, one should not be voting for someone based simply on whether they share one's ethnicity, religion or skin color.

This single-handedly destroyed her President dreams. Yet, dems still went with her for VP...

Nah, Dems went with her because Biden has health issues. He is borderline senile, any more gaffes, he will lose.  They think he might give up the post citing health issues in the first term. Then, it is all TamBram, Thank you, M’aam!

Yes, the Dems choice of VP was always be the unofficial president, yet why Kamala? Her own partymember, Tulsi literally made her polling numbers drop from the highest to single-digit numbers with that 2 mins of debate
