Kamal Harris running for POTUS will motivate and bring out the Republican and Conservative voters such as never been seen. She’ll get her arse hammered.

“She is not African American.”

According to today’s identity politics, which seems to have aligned with the slave-era “one-drop” theory, she is.

Ex-Lovers Kamala Harris and Willie Brown

http://thepeoplesrepublicofcalifornia.blogspot.com/2015/02/ex-lovers-kamala-harris-and-willie-brown.html

Meet The Ex-Lovers

Harris met Brown in 1994 when he was speaker of the state Assembly. She was 29, he was 60. (From The San Francisco Weekly News in 2003) - Willie Brown, Harris' spurned ex-lover and unsolicited political backer.>{? Hallinan and Fazio aren't attacking Harris' platform (which they both profess to generally share) or professionalism (each admits that Harris is a competent prosecutor). Rather, they are knifing her with innuendo, saying her ties to the outgoing mayor would cause her, as district attorney, to look the other way should her former beau or his political minions ever be credibly accused of committing crimes in office.

The charge that she is Brown's puppet -- that she's guilty by association with a mayor who has not been found guilty of anything -- infuriates Harris. Though in third place in recent polls, she's a political comer. She's hauling in campaign cash like there's no tomorrow.

If she can just get out from under this damn Willie Brown thing.

Harris routinely tries to distance herself from her ex-squeeze, whom she hates even talking about. The mere mention of their former liaison makes her shoulders tense, her hands clench, and her eyes narrow. "I refuse," she says vehemently, "to design my campaign around criticizing Willie Brown for the sake of appearing to be independent when I have no doubt that I am independent of him -- and that he would probably right now express some fright about the fact that he cannot control me.

"His career is over; I will be alive and kicking for the next 40 years. I do not owe him a thing."

She acknowledges that Brown is an "albatross hanging around my neck" and fears that voters who dislike him will ignore her candidacy -- even as she dismisses such an act as irrational. "Would it make sense if you are a Martian coming to Earth that the litmus test for public office is where a candidate is in their relationship to Willie Brown?" Harris asks. "Willie Brown is not going to be around. He's gone -- hello people, move on. If there is corruption, it will be prosecuted. It's a no-brainer, but let's please move on."

She also knows there's not much she can do about it, except to keep saying that the affair is ancient history and that she is a good candidate with good ideas. But as Harris well understands, the more she tries to explain away the Willie factor, the bigger a factor he becomes.

Put this crazy woman against Trump. Or Elizabeth Warren (Chief $hitting Bull)

I remember how Freepers LOVED the idea of Obama winning the dem primary back in 2008. I remember warning them....

Kamala Harris would WIN the presidency, mark my words. The Dems might have to nominate black candidates from here on out to have any chance at winning.

Can we pass a law that no lawyers can ever be president?

That's the problem with our system of government today. People keep electing lawyers. All they do is create new laws. It's high time for that crap to stop.

I think this is a larger reason why people came out and voted for Trump. We need more 'outsiders' in DC. Now.

I was going to say that myself - new and different? You’re kidding! Nothing new and different there - more of the same - except we’d have to hear it from a “female.” I can’t think of anything worse. She’s a loud mouth, rude black.

This article appears after one a week or so ago that said she absolutely WOULD NOT be running.

Identity politics - get 2 for 1.

Yeah, being a woman worked so well for Hillary Clinton.

What’s the message?

So what? No one cared about it with Obama.

The Democrats are betting identity politics will win them more votes than ideas.

We’ll see how that fares in 2018.

She used her position as CA District Attorney to defend Planned Parenthood against the videos made of them selling human body parts...she worked for the abortionists and baby parts’ sellers instead of the people and the law...

That may get you elected to the Senate in California but it doesn’t translate well in a Presidential bid...

“Oh oh Hillary. Looks like you’re going to lose the nomination to another black candidate. This will be a major catfight in 2020 between these two angry and bitter people.”

Hillary has already gone down that path. Nope. The Clinton tried and true method of treating those who get in their way will have to be applied to Ms. Harris. She may some day be found dead in Ft. Marcy Park by a bizarre “suicide accident” with a bullet hole in the back of her head and a piece of exercise equipment crushing her throat.

Were her parents US citizens when she was born?

Good question. Her father was but her mother emigrated from India. Her bio doesn't say when but she attended college in Berkeley in the 60s. Kamala was born in 1964. Was Momsy an illegal alien at that time? Unknown.

Just what we need another hate-filled African leader who tries to look and act as a hateful liberal white woman. Put that together with a low IQ and we have another mayor of Detroit set to loot the country and attack white people and western civilization.

Yeah, Rush’s ‘operation chaos’. Hillary was way more beatable than Obama.

“Kamala Harris would WIN the presidency, mark my words.”

I’m not sure minorities turn out for a woman as much as a man, at least male minorities. But for sure she would do better than Clinton with minorities. Some of those states that flipped were very very close.

She has been officially designated as “Black” due to a Jamaican father. That gives her official victim status, giving her privileges that you and I will never have.
