Black voters feel excitement, hope and a lot of worry as Harris takes center stage in campaign

ATLANTA -- Black voters expressed a mix of hope and worry Monday over Joe Biden’s exit from the presidential race and the prospect of Vice President Kamala Harris becoming the Democratic nominee.

A key Democratic constituency, Black voters helped power Biden to victory in the 2020 primaries and ultimately to the White House, and they were among his most steadfast supporters, even as calls for him to quit grew. But as much pride as some Black Americans feel about the possibility of Harris, who is of Black and Indian descent, becoming president, the upending of the race has some voters feeling scared.

“What they need to be ashamed of is being so ignorant as to believe that just because she has dark skin they are connected with he “one of them”.

That’s what I was trying to say, but you said it better.

It’s ironic that neither Harris or Obama are authentic American blacks descended from slaves, but that mulatto skin is enough for American blacks to swoon over them.

Well, then, she’s a good representative of the simpletons who were interviewed for this article. ABC must have mixed up a full five gallon jug of the Kool Aid to get the answers these imbeciles gave

Trump just needs a few percent more than GOP candidates usually receive from black voters. He doesn’t need a majority.

All Demorat voters should be majorly pi**ed off with the Demorat leadership playing bait and switch....and they have no say in it. They’re stuck with Kamala.

I was off today from work and I’ve been looking at Twitter pretty much all day which like it or not is a good gauge for which way the wind is blowing when it comes to politics. Elon did a tremendous job, not once have I been censored or banned, and I get pretty hardcore with people.

Sad to say though a LOT of blacks are defending and supporting Kamala. Seems nothing was learned by the Obama scam. I told one black woman “You know she’s not going to do anything for you, don’t you, not for you or anybody” and wow, she lit into me like a banshee “You racist mofo, you white supremacist” etc etc.

Expect a lot more of this in the coming months.

For Democrats, the top two political slots, Presidency and VP, are going the way of TV commercials requiring that black folk always be the dominant color on them even though they are only 13% of the population. Time to stop babying them. Why aren’t latinos in the identity politics party raising hell?

“If I were black, I’d be so ashamed of that cackling, vacuous, airhead dunce that I’d hide my head in shame.”

The tribal impulse is extremely powerful with this group and it’s constantly encouraged by the divisive Marxist media.

Are we not allowed to think that their desired constituency will recognize this "skin-color-racist plantation call" for what it is?

Why? She’s brighter than a majority of that group. Ain’t saying much, but she is.

Male Blacks over 30 won't be impressed with her.

Black women are a completely lost cause. They are the most hate-filled, racist, indoctrinated idiots I've ever come across (I work at a university).

The Shamuquas will be 100% behind her, but the Dems already have those voters. Whether it was Harris or Biden at the top of the ticket makes no difference with those votes.

Someone better give Harris some black lessons.
Harris needs to name drop a few rap “artist”
Maybe pretend to hang out with big Mike..long enough to take some photos of them together appearing to be having a nice time.
