OT... After the 2'nd night it looks like Kamala Harris has the smarts AND grits to successfully challenge Trump. It's way early but... Harris looks pretty much on top of her game.
...especially since Kamala's story was pure BS. I grew up in San Jose, 30 miles south of Berkeley. Busing? Segregation? What a crock. Her hardships were PURE fantasy.
Did EVERY school in Berkeley HAVE to have the exact same racial makeup? Is THAT what integration meant? No wonder Biden opposed the RADICAL bussing model that Berkeley had adopted (racial parity in every school). Even Berkeley dropped it, eventually.

ReplyDeleteIndeed. It was a well-planned and flawlessly executed ambush and poor old Joe didn't even know what hit him.

Deletebtw - Is that Julian Assange in the middle?
DeleteInstead of attending a High School that was 10% Black, Kamala went to one that was 40% black. What a hardship!
DeleteSo, Harris is, just like other politicians that are well known then.
