I may have forgotten some of what is claimed she did but not all. I agree that Warren would be about the same and Amy maybe too. Mostly my point is that there are reasons to dislike Harris. Are people disliking her for other reasons...in many cases sure. I liked Tulsi before she went full CPAC. And do you actually believe that it's why the 65% or so people who disapprove of her do so? Or do you believe (as I do) there might be another reason? This is the crux of our disagreement. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My disagreement is that she is in any way likable. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've had this conversation with Rup as well, there are many reasons to legitimately not like Harris. I was really hoping that they would find a more palatable VP because I do think it's going to be a big part of the election. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The team is being sued by a native group wanting the name and logo to stay. Just like when Edmonton Eskimos changed their name. It tends to be woke white folks who claim it’s racist and push to get the changes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well, accept the reality and pick someone stronger. It sucks but do what ever it takes to keep Dementia Don out of the Oval Office. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe some righties care about her race but those folks were never voting for her anyway. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As usual, his words are crazy and all around fucked, but at the end of the day it wasn’t the ‘Indians’ calling for the name change. It was the far left. Same as the Eskimos, which to this day Inuit folks are still saying change the name back to Eskimos. Shouldnt the people in that specific group be the ones to decide if it’s racist, not some bored white folks? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, we've had this debate before and I still maintain that you two are some of the few who actually dislike her for a legitimate reason. My point has always been that the majority of people who dislike her, do so for other reasons.....reasons that, IMHO, they wouldn't have the guts to say in mixed company. We'll probably remain at odds on this, because you aren't going to convince me otherwise, by posting a Tulsi Gabbard video. As far as finding a ,ore "palatable" running mate for Biden, I put that in the "Be careful what you wish for" category. Two areas of the electorate that the Democrats rely on are women and minorities. Do you really believe that kicking someone who is both off the ticket will be the magic bullet that propels Biden to victory? Once again, I disagree.

Lol IMO, the Cleveland logo is racist as shit and didn’t have the same meaning and history as the Eskimos or Redskins. But my point is, I’m not a native person, so my opinion on it doesn’t mean shit. I refer to the people of that race to make that decision. Even though I am 1/4 black(I don’t know where from) I don’t even really speak to that, as I’m white as fuck. I’ve seen a lot more native folks oppose these name changes, and a lot of white folks say it’s awful. https://www.washingtonpost.com/local/new-poll-finds-9-in-10-native-americans-arent-offended-by-redskins-name/2016/05/18/3ea11cfa-161a-11e6-924d-838753295f9a_story.html 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
