I listened to most of the 2020 primary debates. Kamala Harris challenged Joe Biden more than any other candidate. She was prepared, she was intelligent, she was fierce. She didn't relent on Biden, it was fascinating to hear. I remember during one debate, thinking to myself, when Biden wins the nomination, he will pick Kamala Harris as his VP. He picked her for all the right reasons, and she also happened to be a woman of color.

I'm also not looking for Kamala Harris to get pushed off a glass cliff, which I think some of the bad-faith Dems are trying to do. And I hate that legitimate calls for diversity are easy to then spin into the DEI shibboleth.

Again Republicans appropriate either Black American vernacular or things intended to give us a seat at the table and turn it into weapons against us. And liberals buy right into it. What a way to run a railroad.

Oh yeah still pissed about the people measuring Kamala Harris and Stacey Abrams' relative Blackness to put them in conflict, and then when it's time for Stacey Abrams to get the nod for Georgia governor all this support evaporates and they support the unreconstructed Brian Kemp. That will ALWAYS piss me off. She should be governor right now. There was some ugly bad faith with the ADOS bullshit and they even tried to invoke Stacey Abrams in that way.
