Her background in law enforcement — she had served as a prosecutor and California state attorney general — had been seen as a vulnerability early in the race for the party\u0027s nomination

“She was trying to play the middle a little bit and trying to be all things to all people,” said Joel Payne, a Democratic strategist who worked for Hillary Clinton’s 2016 presidential campaign.

Now, Payne said, “There is a little more of a defined voice. There’s more clarity to her public persona.” The family had moved to Montreal when Kamala Harris was 12; in her memoir she seemed ambivalent at best about moving north.

Black woman or Asian-American? Or do you mean Black Asian-American woman? Anyway, who cares how many intersectional adjectives she has? What are her policies? What is her record? Do these things matter anymore or do we just care about the intersectional adjective dujour?

Wow. Canadians whine about America. Then go yippie when they can find some insignificant attachment to America . Pathetic and silly humans in Canada.

Descendant of Northern Irish Dude living in Jamaica slave lord too.

Is she part Chinese? Very important if you want to be VP. What else is she? I heard Indian, Black, not Black by some, Asian? Some say a little white, latino any latino?.all very important stuff. Oh any native American? What else we got?

Wow, she graduated high school in Montreal. Who cares?

Isn’t Trudeau also a Montreal high school alum? If so the bar is not very high...would keep this a secret...

I am incredibly unsurprised.

Talk about all the evidence she suppressed to jail innocent people

Why are Canadians obsessed with pointing out Canadian connections to things? It's really sad and pathetic

His ticket to the White House. Good choice.

Hey National Post...maybe you can post this info about her highly corrupt practices and methods.

the nightmare team has arrived ... I hope when people vote in november they realize they are voting this awful woman as president ... poor canada if this thing wins

She is a vile creature.

Maybe Montreal is where she learned the skills that made her Willie Brown's favourite.

I imagine she experienced some racism in Canada 1981?

MrsNYYoung

Helping Biden make female ear whispering great again

She’s not even black

Not African American. 0%

DIVERSITY

Fix your title you idiots. 'Who we t to high school in Montreal before getting her university degree at...' there you misrepresentation of media

KamalaHarris if you do win, please protect the constitution and the rights and freedoms of not only the people of the United States, but also the people of the world.These are dark times but we can not let the darkness define us. Greed and ignorance are the enemies of freedom.

And her mother worked at The Jewish General Hospital for years!

So, what? Do we hold Montreal's education system accountable when she betrays the voters? Get pertinent, will you NP?

The first Shoulder-Length Hair too

How does she reconcile teaming up with someone she believes sexually assaulted women? She very clearly stated she believed the women accusing Biden of sexually assaulting them.

She is not black ,she was sworn in as an red dot Indian ,

Enjoy your 3 months fame girl. You’re nobody but a puppet. Mike pence will be our vp till 24

Kamala Harris is directly descended from one of the largest slaveowners in Jamaica, Hamilton Brown—there is a even a town named after him, Brown Town. So doesn’t it follow she’s a beneficiary, not a victim, of slavery?

Kamala Harris’s mom is Asian Indian. Her dad Donald Harris is by his own account descended from one of the largest slave planters in Jamaica. In what sense then can she claim the African American experience of being descended from slaves and subject to segregation and Jim Crow?

She supports mob justice over evidence. Poor choice.

She is more than a high school graduate ...wow..what a misleading headline...you couldn't say 'has a canadian connection'🤦🏻‍♀️

A black Asian canadian ... maybe Native American cross dresser ? Wtf!

Well, she's not Black. So there's that!!

Extra Extra...Cop joins defund the police party... You can't make this stuff up. All the Democratic Party needs is a crowd chanting Jerry Jerry Jerry.

Does the National Post no longer employ people who can write?

Kamala Harris is the black Nazi. Ask brown and black youth who she incarcerated without any sense a measure. A total prostitute to white supremacy. Of course she's going to prostitute herself to the white supremacist Joe Biden.

Yuck

DAMN CHY-NAH !!

She IS NOT BLACK.

How many nationalities is she claiming Asian Black Jamaican Indian American Honestly I have no idea.

The only Asian I see in her is the Chinese money we pay her

She’s not black.

Who better to represent African Americans than an Indian from Canada?

And nothing about LeslynLewis ?.. Hit the road

Calm down people her ounce of fame will disappear in the darkness after the election.

Where was she born?

A woman who supports Islamic tyrannical regime IN Iran, what a shame!

Umm 🤔

Well thank god the Yanks got Kamala Harris and the Canadians got Leslyn Lewis. In the trade war of great politicians of Jamaican heritage, we finally scored a victory of our Southern Neighbors....

One thing important to note is that most people described as Black are in fact bi or multi racial.

So begins the 1000 articles on how she went to McGill 🤮. Do you honestly have no better people to write something original or are we going to get them same 3 articles, while you people slap each other on the back telling yourself you did good work 🤔

Trump wins 49 states and California is the only state that went for huh?

Kamala’s campaign team - Let’s make sure we put in Montreal there. And “Black”, “Women”, “Asian”.

Kamala Harris joins Art Ross, Norma Shearer, Leonard Cohen, Mila Mulroney, Stockwell Day (!), constanzebear, and me as noteworthy former Westmount High School students. History will probably remember Cohen, and perhaps Ross on account of his eponymous trophy.

'Black woman Asian american' 1. Sounds weird 2. Race obsession is disturbing

Competence and integrity should be the priority. You promoting gender I could care less

Is that where she learned the tricks she used on Willie Brown?

HEY BUDDY...SHE AINT BLACK ...COME ON MAN!!!...

Garbage headline She is far more than a high school graduate. A better opening could have been Canadian educated American lawyer and politician KH.

This headline is hilariously ridiculous.

1% Black 🤷‍♂️

Happy for her but she will take that party to the far left...

Well here's the old age problem and you can see everyone tweeting about it,Kamala is mot black,also Obama isn't black he's bi racial,so is meghan markle,ppl saying mixed folks dont represent can't talk on black issues then Trevor Noah really needs to cancel his show thedailyshow

Can we just call her a very qualified person to be Bidens running mate rather than ////

Canadian American Black Indian Jamaican Asian Woman ✅

They got chased away

Oops all escaped the great cold and took away the great Montreal energy with them, as their skin was shivering and they were soo depressed here!! Are they not ashame?

Montreal education? Did she take same ethics class as trudeau?

CC: JJ_McCullough 👆

So your basically saying Mr Trump will win again 👍

Kamala Harris makes History as first “African-American” politician who is not African of heritage. Her mother is Indian and her father from Jamaica.

First black woman asian American? WTF?
