Why not Stacey Abrams? Why does it always have to be someone mixed with something? I’m definitely not voting for Biden and would rather have trump win than have Kampala as vice!

That’s fine, you get to decide who you vote for just as Biden got to decide his VP pick. If it had been Stacey, someone else who’d be asking, “why not Kamala” or “why not xxxx”. No one person will ever be able to completely please everyone. That’s just how it goes.

So. With all the reasonable qualms one could have with Kamala and her record, yours is she’s not Black enough? HU grad, AKA, identifying as a Black woman, KAMALA? That’s who’s not Black enough for you? Ok. Please consider deleting.

Also, you do realize that VP has very little formal power as compared to POTUS? Meaning, she *could* impact some policy, but it’s not very likely. So maybe just say you don’t like Black people so we can all go home.

Clearly, if you don’t vote for Biden, you aint black.

As a mixed person, I am deeply offended by this post. Am I not black enough for you? What should I be? I am being mistreated/maltreated and marginalized by my own people which is worst. It’s already hard to live my life as a black person, my co - blacks have to judge me too???? Come On - Don’t be like that...

You , vote who you want 🤦🏾‍♀️...

Stacey Abraham cannot win in GA. If you were Biden, why would choose her? This isn’t a game. Please take the WINS, he didn’t even have to select a woman nor a black woman or a mix woman according to you.

You’re old enough to make your own decisions but don’t be out here influencing everyone to think like you do. If I may ask, so you would rather have the whole black race burn in hell at the hands of Trump just because the chosen vice is mixed? So if she is mixed she is not black enough and she can’t relate to issues Black people experience???

Fam you literally started your post by stating OP “shouldn’t be influencing people”. Why? Are you so afraid of the free exchange of ideas?

Yep. Black indeed. Descendants of slaves were shipped to America and as a result, often raped by American colonist and Native Americans. A lot of black people have a lighter complexion than that of West Africans due to this happening at some point in their lineage.

Plus, she chose to attend an HBCU and join a black sorority lol. why on earth would she go to Howard over an Ivy League school if she’s “anti black” as you claim.

Vote against Trump OP. That’s it.

AOC said something really helpful to me, she said we are not voting for a perfect candidate here, we are voting for leadership we can hold accountable. Trump does not take accountability for anything, and we are very much in trouble if we allow him another 4 years. I hate that that’s the way it is, but alas... Follow settleforbiden on insta, it’s really helping me come to terms with everything.

Also, don’t start a “she’s not black enough” debate it’s just ...mad irrelevant wtf 🤣

like

Agree with this. She wasn’t my first choice and neither was Biden for that matter but regardless of where they fell on my list, they are way above Trump. He will without doubt be even more brazen than he’s been when he’s not worried about re-election. I’m more confident a Biden ticket will come with a competent team and accountability.

The reality is that we are all mixed with something so I simply don’t care how much melanin is in her skin. Did you Have the same concerns with Obama? We destroy ourselves with this type of rhetoric. Maybe Biden/Harris isn’t the best duo for you, but if you are comfortable with the current leadership in the White House, then, by all means, vote your conscience as we all live the consequences of your vote.

I've got no problems with anyone's beliefs on who to or not to vote for if they're based ideology, past performance, policy, etc.

However, if it's because someone is or isn't a female, or black, or mixed, or those type of characteristics, then I think that makes us just as bad as those that have made this society as bad as it can be.

That's without even getting to the trump/Pence ticket. Personally, I don't even have as much of a problem with that vp. I think he and his beliefs are foolish and I think his silence is complicit, but trump is just not a good human. Racist, sexist and pretty much every other ist that's out there. Not smart and tearing is apart. Imho, I can't think of one solid reason to vote for him. Enlighten me if you have one.
