It’s not a slow focus, pointing out how she is now pandering to black folk because she is in trouble poll wise isn’t a bad strategy.

Trump’s policies did more for the black community than anything ever done before by any Democrat.

Trump can hit her on this while still doing everything else.

Cooking with Kamala Harris Our First Indian VP

Crazy how biracial people blow yalls minds.

What blows our minds is how you people are unable to understand the point. She grew up 100% connected to her Socialist Indian side, and not her quarter Jamaican black side. She has no familial connection to the American black culture, no matter where she went to school. Nor does Obama. Yet you lefties will say the likes of Clarence Thomas "ain't black" but latch on to non-familial American blacks like Harris and Obama.

In that video, Kaling says " You are Indian" "And I don't know that everybody knows that".

This is such a stupid attack line that's not going to work.

There's not a single 'American Black culture' or experience, Black people are individuals and not a monolith.

I don’t understand the intended take-away from this.

Are bi-racial people supposed to pick a single aspect of their upbringing and stick with it? Or are they free to be open about being bi-racial while attempting to connect with people in both cultures?

I’m not a fan of racial identity politics, so I need some of you racial identity enthusiasts to help me see whatever significance of this issue I’m overlooking.

Are we going to expect JD Vance’s kids to pick a side too?

They think its a gotcha. Which it may be, but only within the MAGA population. No one else cares and its a stupid thing to harp on for Trump or his campaign.

All they are doing is handing the media soundbites.

ok dude. Tell that to all the people who create commercials/ads for "Black History Month" in Feb.

To add...those ads arent focusing on Jamaican/Caribbean or Nigerian/etc history.

Didnt ever hear you guys calling Obama white even though he was half white and half black.

Kamala isn’t half black so your Obama example is apples to curry.

It's her latching onto it when convenient to benefit her. It's a character flaw.

It's trying to get blacks that only vote based on race, to question that she's not black like them. This isn't going to hurt Trump, other than with weak conservatives that get scared of touching these kind of topics, as the people that will get upset aren't voting for him anyway. He'll grab some, wont lose any, and that's a plus. And there is still plenty of time
