Democrats are using identity politics again to test the waters for a ballot replacement for Joe Biden instead of finding a candidate with bona fide qualifications -- and integrity.
Michelle Obama is being touted a possible candidate who could beat Donald Trump.
She was recently publicized as an executive producer of a Netflix fiction movie, along with husband Barack.
There was not much of the old Obama hopey-changey messaging in her anti-white Netflix endeavor, however, which left identity politics as her selling point with voters.
Per the academic definition, identity politics is a Marxist tactic of assigning utmost societal importance to a candidate’s empowerment of a collective, victimized group such as women, or minorities.
Anyone opposing the victim-candidate is immediately labeled as suppressing the entire representative group. For example, people who opposed presidential candidate, Hillary Clinton were labeled as anti-women or misogynists, just as those who criticized Barack Obama in 2008 and 2012 were called racist.
Identity politics has pulverized Dr. Martin Luther King’s Jr.’s dream of Americans judging others by the “content of their character instead of the color of their skin” in choosing a candidate.
Meanwhile, collectivism is a fundamental element of totalitarian ideology.
As a result, political candidate selection that should embrace American individualism and Dr. King’s character-content theory is now surpassed by identity politics.
But individualism and integrity as candidate-qualifiers have not worked out well for Democrats.

But, Clinton’s integrity was defined by such moments as being caught on tape nervously laughing about winning a case for a 41-year old rapist of a 12 year-old girl, and her soulless, exasperated, “What difference, does it make?” remark

She’s too lazy and stupid to even campaign, and mansion living has only exacerbated those traits.
And...if she needed 26 slaves as FLOTUS, she’d have to build an entire city of slaves to minister to her presidential needs.
Queen Mooch is to be worshipped just for being who she is. A queen does not court the smelly peons for her status.
Hillary’s campaign was so bad she couldn’t dell p***y on a troop ship.
Bill Clinton
She (he?) is a product of the privileged class. She is just as annoying as Hillary, and that is a total take-down.
Big Mike doesn’t want the job. He is lazier than obarqy.
Gruesome Newsome will be the candidate.
Kamala will get the Bernie Sanders treatment, a couple of nice beach houses and off they go.
Hillary will be left out in the cold again.
