Kamala Harris’s team is concerned that Democrats will install a white candidate ahead of her to replace Joe Biden, arguing that it would be “offensive” to black voters to overlook her should the president stand aside.
Mr Biden is facing calls to step back from the race over concerns about his age, after a disastrous television debate performance against Donald Trump on Thursday.
The Biden campaign, which is a joint ticket between the US president and Ms Harris, has dismissed calls for him to step aside for a younger candidate.
However, allies of Ms Harris are frustrated that she has largely been excluded from the list of possible replacements, arguing that it would be “offensive” to overlook a black woman for the job.
Gavin Newsom and Gretchen Whitmer, the Democratic governors of California and Michigan, have so far been at the centre of speculation about a replacement nominee.
“The fact that people keep coming back to this is so offensive to so many of us,” an ally of Ms Harris told Politico.
“They still don’t get that the message you’re saying to people, to this Democratic Party, is, we prefer a white person.”
Another source added: “If they think they are going to get through South Carolina bashing an effective and qualified black woman vice president — their instincts are as bad as I thought they were.”
Ms Harris’s team has pointed out that her race may allow her to appeal to black voters – a core demographic for the Democrats that has begun to shift away from Mr Biden in recent months.
Data from the Pew Research centre shows 77 per cent of black voters say they are leaning towards voting for Mr Biden in November, down from 93 per cent that supported him in 2020.
Democrats love their “firsts.” Biden is their first chomo president.
Slave holder Heels Up is not really White [or adjacent skin color]?
Stop it.
That is so gross.
Why do you think he will win? Do you know anything about him?
Hairass hasn’t said how it went down
The “word salad” queen is a terrible communicator
She and Joe both sound like they had Fetterman as a speech therapist.
“effective and qualified black woman”
Wrong on all 3 counts.
She’s not effective.
She’s not qualified.
And she ain’t black.
I’ll also add a 4th.
She’s not eligable.
“Otherwise you risk destroying the system completely and forever.”
Maybe that’s what they want.
Maybe then the whole country can be like Chicago ,if they pick a Black candidate and then kill Trump. Lock and Load!
Maybe replace her with a natural born citizen?
The Deep State will Spiro Agnew her. Either that or a Hillary induced accident.
Either way, the Dem’s are looking for a way to remove Kamala.
Wigggers live under Jim Crow 2.0
They get a 2-for-1 if the dems put Newsom at the top of the ticket. Her REAL concern about a “white man” replacing Biden is that Gavin gets the top spot on the ticket. Because if he replaces Biden, not only does she not get to be the presidential nominee, she also can’t be the vice-presidential nominee, because Newsom and Harris are from the same state.
Well she’s definitely a #2, but then so is Xao Bi Den and every other Democrat politician I’ve ever heard of.
I predict that they will offer Harris governor of California. She is guaranteed to win.
Then, the party leaders can select the team that they want without having to answer to rank and file Democrats.
That's been the communist plan for a long, long time.
Right. Which is a vote against Gavin Newsome. Seriously, do you think Newsome is going to take marching orders from Obama?
if they cant have it they will use the scorched earth scenario
” an effective and qualified black woman vice president”
I think I see the problem here.
Not only does she think she’s qualified (she’s not), she also thinks she’s effective (she’s not).
Kamala is an AA hire, a checkmark on the list of aggrieved. An obnoxious, low IQ dolt.
When the dust settles, she’ll be lucky to land a token job as a clerk in a slip-and-fall shop.
It’s past time for Kamala to invoke the 25th Amendment.
