Anyone who was minimally informed and had an IQ over 85 would have known better than to have ANY expectations of Kamala Harris.

They say there’s a sucker born every minute. She was right on time.

Nah. He is like the criminal who is sorry he got caught. Not sorry that he committed the crime. All criminals in jail or prison are sorry. Sorry they got caught. He hasn’t learned a thing. He will vote for the next Democrat he gets a chance. He is looking for a free ride.

Most black Americans are of mixed race

We live in a society that is often fixated and focused on the superficial. While this is not an issue of race, this issue does appear to afflict young people far worse than more seasoned citizens.

These kids are reacting as they have been conditioned by culture (what is cool), media (what is messaged), and academia (what is woke).

If you simply looked at qualifications on a piece of paper with no pictures or other input she is the least impressive figure in American history to occupy her position. Obama is on that list also. It has nothing to do with “race” and everything to do with real world experience.

They were selected and elected by the entities above regardless of merit and we all live with the consequences.

“Along with 90 percent of black voters, I pulled the lever for Joe Biden in 2020, partly because Harris was on the ticket, and I had high hopes for our first black, female vice president.”

90% of black voters are idiots. No nice way to say it.

"Why did the author, or any of the other individuals in this article, have high hopes for Ms. Harris?"

He obviously is from an even shallower end of the gene pool than Kamalamadingdong.

Can this guy name for me one single solitary thing a black democrat politician EVER did for black people? Can he name for me one thing Obama did for black people? So WHY the hell is he voting for them?

If I were black I would be pretty damn ticked off that the democrap party did everything they could to destroy Donald Trump while Donald Trump was doing more for the black community in 4 years than any democrats in office since this country was founded.

I went and looked at his Instagram. That may be dad and grandpa proudly in their military unfiforms. Looks like he might be a real
Family man, not just a baby daddy. Entrepreneur. Cleans up well and looks sharp. It looks like he may be following the traditional track tot he American dream. Yet he chooses to be stupid. Unfortunately the post article doesn’t have a comments section or there might have been hope
Commenters could have helped him wise up

Why young black people like me are feeling let down by Kamala Harris NY Post ... Dennis Richmond, Jr.

I’m a 26-year-old black New Yorker and I believe in supporting what’s right. That’s why I can’t be silent about Vice President Kamala Harris anymore. Along with 90 percent of black voters, I pulled the lever for Joe Biden in 2020, partly because Harris was on the ticket, and I had high hopes for our first black, female vice president.

Hey sexist, racist voter, you deserve exactly what you got by basing your vote for the senile Sleepy Joe/Laughing Kamala solely on gender and race. You're yet another misguided, miseducated, naive voter who mindlessly believes whatever the far-left socialist/communist Democrat Party Cabal politicians deceitfully tell you. Remember, your vote impacts not only your future, but also the future of the entire U.S. That explains why the whole world is laughing at the U.S. for "electing" the senile Sleepy Joe & Laughing Kamala. All the other countries wonder: How could the U.S. possibly elect a twice-failed Democrat Presidential Primary candidate (1988 & 2008) who can't even string together a few comprehensible English words on his own without a teleprompter.

Your first mistake, son, is defining yourself by the color of your skin.

Yup, unless we can get people to drop the hyphens in their names and become just Americans, the country is screwed.

The left has been successful for years of creating victim groups like him and many others.

“Why young black people like me are feeling let down by Kamala Harris”

I cannot help but wonder if maybe, it is because you actually expected competence in an Affirmative Action hire.

“Hey Dennis, I didn’t know you were a weak minded, stupid, liability to society”

Dennis, no one on this board knows you so don’t fret over that post.

I’m more of a conservative but my four very intelligent children voted for Biden/Harris only because of their hatred of Trump. They scarcely paid attention to the issues.

I try to look objectively at issues and that’s my advice to everyone.

Right off the bat you assume BECAUSE SHE IS BLACK, that she would represent YOU, a Black man.

Ya know what THAT is? RACISM!

” Along with 90 percent of black voters, I pulled the lever for Joe Biden in 2020, partly because Harris was on the ticket”

“first black, female vice president.”

What difference does it make that she is HALF Black?

Sir, you are a RACIST! I hope this is a SHOCK to you to hear the TRUTH.

Turn those statements around and change Black to White.

You would be OUTRAGED at who would say such a thing. Racist, right? Why isn’t it racist when you say it about Blacks?

You, and many like you, as YOU say, voted for Kamala BECAUSE SHE IS BLACK.

What about her qualifications, intellect, character, morals, positions (other than “heels up” position)?

Sorry, I couldn’t help myself.

I NEVER vote for anyone BECAUSE THEY ARE WHITE! It NEVER enters my mind.

I’d vote for Denzel Washington in a heartbeat. Not because he is a famous movie star, but because of THE CONTENT OF HIS CHARACTER!

I’d vote for Candace Owens in a heartbeat. Not because she is famous, but because of THE CONTENT OF HER CHARACTER!

Become race BLIND. Instead of the FIRST thing that enters your mind (race) it should be LAST, if at all.
