Title: A dream ticket’: Black lawmakers pitch Biden-Harris to beat Trump
Post by: Wingnut on May 12, 2019, 08:08:51 pm
"Hands" Biden and "Round Heels" Harris in 2020.  Can you feel it?

The Congressional Black Caucus may have found an answer to its Joe Biden dilemma: Vice President Kamala Harris.

Some black lawmakers are agonizing over whether to back Biden or two members of the close-knit caucus — Sens. Harris and Cory Booker — who are also vying for the White House, according to interviews with a dozen CBC members.

But with the former vice president jumping out to a huge, if early, lead in the polls, several CBC members are warming to the idea of a Biden-Harris ticket to take on President Donald Trump.

“That would be a dream ticket for me, a dream ticket!” said Rep. Lacy Clay (D-Mo.). “If she is not the nominee, that would be a dream ticket for this

Unless something changes, this is a Biden-Bernie contest. the next two in most polls are Harris and Buttgigger, sometimes Warren or O'Rourke.

Particularly because she's a woman, brown, not bad looking, and from CA, Harris is as near a Dem poster child as you can pick. Unless she completely gaffes out, I can see her being on the short list.

Dream ticket, huh?
Biden has big problems.  While they beat up on DTJr.,  "Hunter Biden actually has real deals. The Ukrainian energy company Burisma actually transferred $3.1 million to an account over 14 months that he drew money from. There was a deal there. The deal with the Chinese, same thing. he flies over on Air Force Two with his father – ten days after they return, his firm has a $1.5 billion private equity deal with the Chinese government.”

Neither Biden nor Harris will win male black American votes.

Neither Biden nor Harris will win male black American votes.

But, on the other hand, this will lock in the female black American votes.   :smokin:

Low IQ Joe Biden has had no notable accomplishments in his 50 years in government, including his eight years as Obama’s vice president—where he used his position to have a Ukrainian prosecutor fired for investigating his son for corruption in exchange for releasing $5 billion in loan guarantees to the Ukrainian government. Putting all this aside, identity politics (in this case, affirmative action for unqualified politicians) will be the death of this nation. Identity politics are as anti-American and anti constitution as it gets.

I pray for the day that identity politics gets dead and buried.
