    It would be weird for Democratic women of color to come out against a Democratic woman of color.

      While true, it should not mean they automatically support her. That’s tokenism. However, of shes got the credentials, which KH has, they would be foolish not to support her.

          They could support another candidate, however, that would show disunity. Better to band together with an acceptable candidate, at this point.

          By all accounts, she is acceptable and she was made VP knowing Biden was old and planned to step down.

          However, they should also do so knowing the establishment of the Democratic party are out if touch and have no problem pushing their own agenda even when its clear that its a bad plan. A la Biden first time, pushing out Sanders, Clinton, dumping biden second time. All against supposed principles.

      America is so racist. It’s strange.

      I would think her policy and strength as a person would be the factors worth considering.

      Please to see some of you are just thinking about casting though.

        Ah, you must be one of those people who agree with the Supreme Court that believes we’re in a post-racial society!

        No racism or sexism problems in Amerika! /s

          Depends which society you are referring to. I’m Irish I love in Ireland. And although I make no claims that Ireland is post racial… it’s sure af less racial alliance round than America.

          I lived there too. Firs time I ever heard the n word being used with full unabashed sincerity. At the age of… 25 odd.
