Black Lives Matter (BLM) urged the Democratic National Committee (DNC) to organize a nationwide virtual primary on Tuesday after Vice President Kamala Harris reportedly secured enough delegates for the Democratic presidential nomination.
Harris claimed early Tuesday morning that she had obtained enough support from DNC delegates to be voted the party’s presidential nominee, following President Joe Biden stepping down from the race and endorsing Harris. BLM, which exploded in prominence following the death of George Floyd in 2020, said in a statement that while President Joe Biden wasn’t their top choice as a candidate, they cannot overlook the concerning actions taken by the Democratic Party in not holding a new primary election after the president dropped out of the race.
“We call for the Rules Committee to create a process that allows for public participation in the nomination process, not just a nomination by party delegates,” BLM’s statement reads. “The current political landscape is unprecedented, with President Biden stepping aside in a manner never seen before. This moment calls for decisive action to protect the integrity of our democracy and the voices of Black voters.”
Harris stated on Sunday her intention to “earn and secure” the Democratic presidential nomination following Biden’s announcement that he will not seek re-election as the party’s nominee.
“Now, Democratic Party elites and billionaire donors are attempting to manipulate Black voters by anointing Kamala Harris and an unknown vice president as the new Democratic ticket without a primary vote by the public,” BLM continued. “This blatant disregard for democratic principles is unacceptable. While the potential outcome of a Harris presidency may be historic, the process to achieve it must align with true democratic values. We have no idea where Kamala Harris stands on the issues, now that she has assumed Joe Biden’s place, and we have no idea of the record of her potential vice president because we don’t even know who it is yet.”
In a Sunday letter from Biden following his dropout announcement, the president explained that “it is in the interests of my party and the nation for me to step aside and concentrate fully on fulfilling my responsibilities as President.” Biden faced numerous calls from prominent Democrats, including many in Congress, to drop out of the race prior to his decision.
“This is not an attack on Kamala Harris or Black women, and right now we aren’t questioning Kamala’s qualifications or capabilities,” Shalomyah Browers, a BLM leader, said in the statement. “This is about the nominating process.”
>>“And what kind of man would want to play 2nd fiddle to The Cackler?..................”
>>A man pretending to be a woman?
I think you’ve just found the Rat dream team... Harris/Levine 2024.
What kind of man would be a Democrat in 2024?
The BLM is thickly infused with communist ideology. If they had more than a room temperature IQ, the members would figure that out.
Nay …this fake org is run by crooks who will blackmail the rats for $$$$$$….give us more money or we burn down car dealerships in the name of Kackling hyena!
If Kamala Harris took an “ANCESTRY DNA TEST” her ancestral origins would almost certainly be shown to be about 50% India. The great bulk of the other half would be European countries. Only a VERY MINOR PORTION would be SUB-SAHARAN AFRICAN. Since she is only microscopically “African”, I understand why Black Lives Matter would NOT WANT TO SEE AN UNCONTESTED CORONATION BE HELD FOR HER.
They’re nothing but criminals I agree.
We aren’t questioning Kamala’s qualifications or capabilities.
The BLM just flashed their YOU OWN US card to the DNC another carrot on a stick ensues.
” we aren’t questioning Kamala’s qualifications or capabilities,”
Which is exactly what they should be questioning!
Everything’s a popularity contest with these groups of misfits.
Yes, 50% (dot) Indian via her mother.
Her father is Jamaican black, arguably Afro-Jamaican, but not Afro-American.
But I think what really frosts American blacks, including BLM types, is that only a few generations back on her father's side is an Irish-Jamaican SLAVE OWNER who had OVER 1000 SLAVES. You know that's gonna come out at some point.
Father: Donald J. Harris Wikipedia
According to Harris, the construction of the local Anglican Church was founded by Irish-born Hamilton Brown, whom Harris believes—in accordance with statements made by his grandmother—is his ancestor.Ancestor: Hamilton Brown Wikipedia
(1776–1843) was a Scots-Irish plantation owner, slave owner and politician... Brown was a prolific slave owner in the context of Jamaican society and was associated with a large number of claims, twenty-five in total, he owned 1,120 slaves most of them on sugar plantations in Saint Ann Parish...
Bahahahaha they want to rip off more people for mansions
Scamala Harris is not black. She is Jamaican/Indian.
Bahahaha they already took over and annonted the leg spreader who locks up black people for smoking weed.
Good question. She married one, so there’s that.
Harris is exactly the kind of descendant of slave holders who should be paying reparations to American blacks.
Not one of my ancestors owned any slaves.
