Sen. Amy Klobuchar removed herself from consideration to be Joe Biden's running mate, saying he should instead choose a woman of color

"This is a historic moment, and America must seize on this moment. And I truly believe as, I actually told the vice president last night when I called him, that I think this is a moment to put a woman of color on that ticket," Klobuchar, a Minnesota Democrat, told MSNBC's Lawrence O'Donnell.View 2020 presidential election polling"And there are so many incredibly qualified women, but if you want to heal this nation right now, my party ...

The resurgence of questions about her criminal justice record -- along with what many saw as her inability to address long-running accusations of racism inside the Minneapolis police force and her failure to bring charges against multiple officers involved in shootings during her time as a top prosecutor -- had led some inside the Democratic Party to outright say they would question Biden's judgment and commitment to Black voters if he picked Klobuchar as his running mate.

It's time for a woman of color is time for a woman just to be in the house to see if they can make better decisions than he's men's what's testosterone

Of what use do you think it's going to be for coloured people? Obama was there as president, he ended up causing problems all over Africa. It was when Gaddafi was killed by Obama that several countries are today engulfed in crisis beginning from Libya which is completely destroye

Racist

DO NOT pick a VP candidate who is better qualified than Klobuchar to be Biden's running mate. Just pick a Woman of color. 'Believing that a particular race is superior to another' is, by definition, being a racist.

This is a great move! I am happy to hear amyklobuchar is doing what is in the best interest of winning America back from Trump and his crooked Administration! She is a very intelligent lady and will definitely be supported in the next election.

She had no chance. Black folks really don't have much choice to vote for someone they like and believe in. It's always these damn lawyers who cannot lead for s***. JosephBiden and Democrats take black votes for granted. Teach a man how to fish rather than just giving them fish.

How about choose the best person for the job? Why does sex or color have to be a factor?

Bummer... thought we could get dumb and dumber

That is ridiculous. We want the best qualified person.

What a cowardly move to suggest that she is not qualify enough because she is not black. This country has become a punchline.

amyklobuchar you are a woman of color. Wear that white skin with pride and vote red. Trump 2020!!

Why all of a sudden do we have to change

amyklobuchar people shouldnt be appointed to a position just because of their colour? Then they would just be a novel appointment or window dressing. Oh wait I forget liberals are bending backwards to screw themselves!!

she would have made an awesome VP! can’t wait to see what else she done in the senate though!

It should never be about sex, race or religion in selecting a person for a position for an office. It should ALWAYS be about the most qualified person.

I would prefer a person who’s the best qualified. If you’re stuck on skin color you’re setting this country back further.

Amy, I'm very sad you that you will not be VP, as you would be such a compliment to the team. You're the best, thank you for being such a great example & leader! Hope to see you in a key position in the new White House.

It should be the most qualified candidate. Period.

Michelle Obama!!!

Thanks, Amy. I couldn't agree more. This is the moment to have a woman of color in a high position, far more qualified than the present day idiot of a potus.

Yeah ... after Jim Clyburn said they should no longer consider her.

She knows a loser when she sees one. Sorry fuckos...Trump until 2024! Time to start acclimating yourself to that reality.

Too bad. I liked Amy. For some reason I imagine her as the kind of person you go out to eat at a Mexican restaurant with and she winds up having one too many margaritas and leads a conga line around the dining room while wearing a big sombrero. Sad. Amy was fun. I'lll miss her.

Hopefully color will not be her only qualification since Biden is an old man. But whatever it takes to get rid of Trump ...

Maybe he should pick someone with experience.

Just show your gunt Amy. color

OMG!!

She’s obviously a racist, why should a person of color or non color be a shoe in? How about the most qualified for the job, regardless of skin color?

Let's not tokenize like the black woman is unqualified. Exactly the kind of rhetoric and action we DON'T need right now. Aaarg

Bye bitch

white is a color

She simply told Democrats, 'we dont have a chance' she doesn't want to be associated with failure.

Still think she's great

She’s got skeletons in the closet.

Choose all you like but it’s not going to be Biden.

Why not the best person for the job?

So being a woman of color, Senator Elizabeth Warren is still eligible, right?

Thank you Amy! You're awesome.

Great move.

I’m glad she didn’t become VP, she kinda seems like a bull shitter

How about Ilhan Omar ?

Things may change. People who are at disadvantage or minority may get their due. She is not only trying to balance the gender imbalance here but also the ethnic imbalance. The moment I read the headline, my only thought was, yesss right thing. Change happens with open mind 🙏🏻

Continue to pander and the lawlessness will keep going.

Let’s face it, amyklobuchar is just saving herself the obvious decision hat there is no way she is being picked as a running mate for JoeBiden In fact, I wouldn’t be surprised if she was told so by Joe and his team

In my opinion, it seems like a lot of these decisions in and of themselves are a bit racist and don't translate at all to equality for all humans. I mean, that is the goal right?

I hope Joe Biden has a 'binder full of [colored] women' to choose from.

GentleHugo KamalaHarris this is soooo yours!!! 🙌🏿

How about choosing a woman of qualification!!! Regardless of color.

That’s not right. It should be who’s the best candidate & most qualified. Bad move :(

She is implying she had to step aside so a woman of color could be chosen. Amy didn’t think a woman of color could get the nod without her bowing out.

Gracious!

Her decision necessary, her suggestion not needed

What's next, a black president? Oh wait...

I wanted Amy for VP. Who will be the most qualified?

Her actions demonstrate why she should be considered for Vice President. This decision on her part takes courage, honesty and conscious thoughtfulness about the country as a whole.

She didn’t remove herself..she wasn’t an option

What's wrong with picking the best qualified person for the job? Why does it have to be a person of color?

Bernie Sanders has earned the right to be the vise presidental canidate but democrats disrespected him

Funny that with the libs the words ‘wise, experienced and qualified’ are never the first words in the consideration of a leader. Never.

He wasn't gonna pick you anyway

Somewhat sad about this I really like the senator. I understand her reasoning but she was impressive in the debates.

She would have been awesome though.

Good idea, sleepy joe should ask Michelle Obama to be his running mate !

Pander pander pander

That’s right, make it about race and gender not about the best candidate. Affirmative action at its finest. How could a person take a job like that knowing they weren’t the best candidate, they were chosen for votes.

How noble! For weeks speculation had you losing ground as your record as Henn Cty Attorney caught up your ambitions. Hopefully, your noticeable lack of appeal won’t stymie future service.

🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

The woman who refused to prosecute Chauvin when she had the power to? Who kept murderers on the streets? Lmao she had no chance of being VP what an empty gesture. *yawn*

Amy you didn’t have to do that you could’ve just pulled a Elizabeth Warren and said you were a minority.

When you have no chance of being picked this is a good way to drop out 🙄

Hypocrites!

Smart move, Amy.

What a Shame she would’ve been a good VP. Seems like it doesn’t matter who’s best for the job nowadays it’s just what the color of your skin is. If the best person is African-American then so be it select them but do not select someone just because of pressure.

That’s pretty low on the list of reasons she shouldn’t be the pick.

She was never considered. Moot point.

How sad for black people to be picked because they black not talented

Amy for attorney general?

I don't agree with this sentiments please, Biden should pick a qualified and capable person irrespective of color, gender, or religion.

Warren should be Biden's VP,we need to get country out of this mess,not make it about color,we need what will work for betterment of country &Biden administration, stay focus, a woman VP is a start,deal with one issue at a time,when u leap & don't look,u lose what's important.

Like she was going to get it after what happened in Minneapolis..... the preemptive stepdown? like saying I am skipping entering the nfl draft to allow more players of talent to be selected.

us too

Apparently never

racist

Ridiculous! Only choosing someone of color is the same as saying only choose someone white. Both are racist both aren’t fair. How about choose whoever is best fit for the job regardless of race ?!?! SICK OF THE RACIAL DIVIDE! I’m turning off my tv until Christmas.

How about the best person for the job

Biden should choose the best person for the job. We all want to be chosen on merit. I would never want to be appointed to a role as the token anything and potentially being disrespected and insulted based on that. They only got it because.. is not something to live with.

What we need is the RIGHT PERSON, for the job, regardless of RACE, or COLOR!!!!!! That's what's wrong with this country!!!!!

Because that will make racism go away LOL. Idiots

Shouldn't we want him to choose based on who is the best qualified? Choosing based on skin color is what everyone is protesting about, right?

Oh Amy. You were never considered. Self serving decision.

She doesn't want SMOKIN JOE TO SNIFF HER HAIR. LOL

She dont want SMOKIN JOE SNIFFIN HER HAIR. LOL

Sorry, but unless a woman “of colour” is better qualified for more reasons than skin tone, not a smart move in my opinion

Let me tell you. It benefitted only one type of person and black wasnt it. Please DNC open up the coffers and keep our blue streak alive

It's rather odd that it's gone from 'must be a woman' to now a 'woman of colour'. Isn't this a touch prescriptive and dare I say a tad racist? It should be the most qualified person for the second highest office in the country. That said I'd go with Harris or Warren...

Rotflmfao. She so stupid its hysterical

I beg of you DNC. Please stop ignoring Minnesota. We were trending red well before amy's rise to fame and george floyd going all the way back to philando castillo. Ared Minnesota will mean hundreds of thousands of lives are going to be in danger. I grew up in a red Minnesota and

She knew she had no chance because of what happened in her State and City. She handled it poorly...imagine her help running a country and oversight the world.

How about he choose the best candidate

This is completely out of control

Guess it really don't matter cause Biden won't get into office or if he does he will not last

Racism from the liberals but blm supports them. That's what's going to cause a war the liberals won't win

With Nancy P running the show the DNC has to go.

This is the best thing I've ever heard of her doing

Or she did not want to be on the Ticket with.....

I nominate my brown starfish to be VP, if that’s the only qualification there is.

And while the Democrats play 'I'm woker than you' Trump gets another four years.

Duh

Is that the reason? I appreciate the gesture but I am not sure it should work that way.

That's too bad,because she would have been great.But she is young,so hopefully we will see her in the future.

Sure

It was not a gesture of generosity. She failed to act on one of the cops that killed George Floyd. Her goose was already cooked.

CNN EXCLUSIVE Sen. Amy Klobuchar did not kiss Joes ass enough so she was removed from consideration to be Joe Biden's running mate, saying he should have been more love-e -dove-e instead of hanging around Nancy!

Bullshit. thats wat you call it . BULLshhiit. just like CNN

Get real. She did this because she knew that she was not in the running.

Why not the best possible candidate? Democrats have lost their minds.

The name is Pamela Harris

Uhm... I know Mrs. Obama shes a good strong woman and could do so much for our country and continue to send a positive message

Way to get yourself out of that nightmare

'Choose someone based on their skin color' - Democrats Somehow Republicans are the racists though

That's walking the higher ground Amy

Pander much?

We

Klobuchar: “Any questions?”

Seriously! What happen it should go to the best qualify candidate. No matter what color.

Ridiculous.....no one should be entitled because of the color of their skin whether it is white, black, brown, green, blue,this race agenda has to stop. We'll never get this country right with pigmentation.

Playing game. Obama had our votes TWO -2 times. Where us racists?

🤣 pander much!

Like she was ever a serious contender lol

Has anyone thought about picking people that are the most qualified for the job vs skin color?

She knew she was not in the running anyway, and I do not agree with her thinking she should dictate that a woman of color should be chosen. The VP should be chosen on merit & electability, race should not be a factor. It makes it sound like tokenism, that isn't progress.

Well racism...

Ya, sure you did. She knew she was done and just wanted to look good

In other words Joe told her she’s not getting the chance to be his VP. Joe’ s handlers decided on someone else. Like Kamala.

Biden and Harris are responsible for so many black incarcerations in their time in office. This is the most ridiculous virtue signaling I have ever seen. These people have screwed over the people they are begging to vote for them for decades. Imagine them two in charge of police

Identity politics at it's worse. I thought we wanted the best candidate no matter what color.

Because she knows they don’t have a snowballs chance in hell of winning, so why work so hard.

It shouldn’t make any difference what damned colour you are. If you can do the job and do it well you could be sky blue with yellow polka dots for all I care

Biden knows that he does not have the competence to be the president of the United States. As a result he will claim health issues, step down and hand the presidency over to the vice president.

So I guess she was told he's picking a women of color

It used to be the 'best qualified' candidate...now it has to be female and of color? Haven't we learned after 8 yrs. of Obama? All people wanted back then was a man of color in the White House...and that's all we got...plus racial division.

What a looser! She always describes herself how good and how great she is before answering or discussing anything, especially in committee hearings shown in TV, what a Hack!

That's being racist. Her skin has no color?

Oh please

Because an old white rich guy for president is a new thing. We need new blood either way. Getting tired of the same type of person in the white house.

amyklobuchar -she is a lady of grace. The racial tension of the times was against her, especially coming from MN. She was my 1st choice as Biden's VP & I'll have to settle for whoever he picks. A shame that race matters.

I think you were his best choice. Your experience goes well beyond dealing with protesters.

I dump you before you can dump me...

She is racist against her own self and white ppl 😅

No no, please don’t drop out

The next Democrat nominee in 2024 will need to be a black transgender midget who identifies as an Hispanic .

That’s too bad. She has a beautiful speaking voice.

For the good of the country shouldn’t Biden pick best qualified, regardless off color?

jwlmd2000 👍🏻👍🏻

Maybe it would be right to choose a person for such a position based on their abilities and not on the color of their skin.

Woman of color. Is white no longer a color?

Not that he will get elected but the candidate with the most experience whatever color he or she is. That’s just DUMB just to pick someone who is of color!

A real class act.

She is not black

Any jumped off a sinking ship and threw a woman of color on the boat instead? How racist is that?

Racist !!!

92d04307e4fd43e Makes alot of sense.

So basically what Democrats are saying that people are so shallow they need a certain type of gender and race to vote for ?gosh when I grew up that was called either biased or racism pick your choice

Is she from Hungary?

Good move, personality of a 2 x 4

You do remember that we had a black president for 8 years? Probably the most divisive president in the history of our country and the very reason the Left is stuck in perpetual childishness. Any time they don’t get their way, it’s a tantrum-pouting, screaming, turning blue.

Because the DNC sees this as the only way to make Biden appealing

You put the best person on that ticket

Now Biden should go. He’s a weak old man who will retire on the job and let wackos run the country.

So now Democrats are picking people based on skin color - ouch they're racist !

Biden, should pick whomever the best running may be, whether man or woman, of Color or Not. Do the right thing Joe, otherwise we are talking Quid Pro Quo...

fallow me plz thnx

I like her, but its not her time

ONE CHINESE FEMALE STUDENT IS RAPED BY WHITE SUPERAMISTS.....AND BURIED AFTER KNIFE THROAT SLAUGHTER......IN HOUSTON TEXAS....MATTER IS UNDER INVESTIGATION....CNN REPORTED...OVER NIGHT

Decisions based on a political agenda is not in the best interests of the people.

Biden is an old perv...any self loving woman would 😅🤷🏾‍♂️

Lol

So Elizabeth Warren?

Skin color should not be a factor in picking a Vice President.

The wrong white lady stepped aside 😒

Get Michelle Obama or whatever and whatever they try to do to compaign for Biden. it wont work.

No. Pick the best person to do the job. Bloody, hell. No brainer, anything else is populist, racist, sexist ist or genderist etc.

Someday America will have a female president (and VP). You know what I want her to look like? It doesn't matter. I just want her to be a good conservative. And I want her to be judged based on what she believes, not her sex or color. In fact, judge all people like this. election

Such a racist twit!!!! What evers good for the party and not the people!

MichelleObama JoeBiden2020

green women would have the best chance.

Thank you, dear!

👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼

She didn’t want to be a target for the whacky left to attack because she’s not black.

NO2Joe

Cause that's the 1st thing you should look for while picking a leader....

Smart move Amy!

I thought we are all supposed to be equal in america & color or race doesn't matter Isn't this in itself racist?

I really like amyklobuchar. She's a very thoughtful lady.

At this point, JoeBiden just needs to drop out and run a POTUS candidate that is a woman of color. Everyone knows that if Joe wins, he won’t hold the job for more than a year.

Please help in stopping the spread of KARENISM BEFORE ITS TOO LATE! Imagine a country full of the lady in this video

So the two white parties in the US are competing on who’s the least racist..? The US is fucked..!

Michael Obama🙄

Was dropped, more like it.

Translation: The vetting team found shit on her they couldn’t ignore.

The black lives matter shit has gone so crazy it is almost as if they’re mocking themselves or competing to see who can say the stupidest thing without losing votes.

She truly rose to the occasion. Women politicians in the United States seem to lead by example with their ethos compared to their male colleagues. If you were the greatest country in the world which you are not you’d already have a woman president and VP.

Yes that’s fine but is there one that’s qualifying

😂😂😂she afraid to support old man cause she know he gonna loose that the truth

Its the absolute LEAST she can do.

Maybe a nursemaid ?

Amy removed herself because even her leftis unhinged lil mind told her Biden has a snowballs chance in hell of winning the election.

She was in contention?

Because the Dems are racists.

Now that's admirable; true leader seeking the best for all.

I am so sí k of this shit now just pick the best person to do the job.

Virtue signaling at its best.

Smart move half her state is burnt down because of her sanctuary city policy

President 2024

I couldn’t care less about their skin color as long as they are capable and qualified to do the job. One ❤️beat away from the hot seat

Um, pretty sure she was removed a while ago.

She knew she wasn’t going to be chosen, because of how she ignored police complaints in MN.

1) She wasn't asked! 2) What makes her think she would have been? 3) Democrats can't risk losing ANY Senate Seat! 4) What the hell happened to just picking the best PERSON for the job? Why must this be about race OR gender? Isn't the assumption it must be, both racist & sexist?

Color has nothing to do with it - choose a qualified person who WILL take over , since he will not be able to finish due to his mental decline.

WOW. Can you see a repub doing that LOL.

Klobuchar removing herself from Bidens consideration is roughly like me removing myself from consideration as Mr Britney Spears. It wasn't ever going to happen in the first place.

So now choosing someone based on skin color isn’t racist? I’m confused.

That’s racist

How is there systematic racism in Atlanta when the entire system is run by black democrats? Actually that’s the case in almost ALL big cities.

No she removed herself because she knows she would be a liability to the ticket because she has the blood of George Floyd on her hands.

Safe to assume Warren then still under consideration?

Since she was the prosecuter that didn’t prosecute Floyd’s murderer a while back that’s probably a good idea

An interesting dynamic in Democrats party

I want KamalaHarris as VP, but it’s not like amyklobuchar really had a chance. This announcement by Amy is strange 🤷‍♀️

This is a scheme by the party to gain more votes from the blacks. I don't think this is good enough reason to step down if she is the best candidate for the position.

How about using somebody who's qualified

We do need her in the senate! Newson would appoint a dem if Kamala is chosen, a d Val seems good also.. So curious.

You will let Trump in WHY

If I was picking a running mate, I definitely wouldn't pick anyone based on his/her qualifications. I'd pick based on the colour of their skin. Thanks Amy for reminding us how to measure a person's worth.

The BEST VP candidate is who should be picked

It's like she's answering a question that nobody asked. The lady doth protest too much methinks.

She just doesn’t want him smelling her hair 🙏🏻😉🤮

If the world is wanting racism to go away then why are we still talking color for the future candidates? Remove the race questions on all federal and state forms if we truly don’t want races involved ☝️🙏🏻👍🏻and evening first names, so you don’t know what gender people are.

Michelle Obama would be perfect. Very qualified, intelligent, dignified, compassionate, caring, family oriented, ihas ntegrity, and someone who knows how to get the job done.

Stupid woman. It's the best person for the job

She don't want the AntifaDomesticTerrorists MobRule on her doorstep. That why! dbongino ScottAdamsSays RealCandaceO charliekirk11 BuckSexton WalkAwayFromDemocrats Trump2020

She had no chance.

😂😂😂😂😂😂

Honestly I think it's a racist comment.

Either Mayor Keisha Bottoms or Sen. Kamala Harris would be perfect choices.

It is a good decision, and I hope that Joe is listening... Kamala Harris for VP is the right choice!!

Tulsi Gabbard is their best choice. Anyone else would secure their loss in the election.

That starts us down a wrong path. Color doesn’t matter. Qualifications do.

More lies... she protected a racist cop but CNN treats her exit as honorable. Fake news

Stop spreading racism . No-one chooses his/her skin color. Therefore it is pertinently unjust, commonly deemed racist, to reward or punish individuals according to the tone of their skin, or any other physical characteristics.

LOL. When you know you don't stand a chance, but you really don't want Warren to be VP either... That's some Joan Crawford versus Betty Davis bullshit there...

He wasn’t picking her anyway 😂

She wasnt gonna get picked anyways. Theres controversy over her past handling of case involving george floyd’s killer.

Never happen

Sucking up for black votes 🤣🤣🤣

Amy what a grand gesture.Are u feeling guilty about something I wonder

I want to see a bill passed that would allow us to vote for our community police and the FOP .. can we put that rhetoric on an agenda for the next US Pres to make this a priority

She knows after George Floyd’s death and her failure to prosecute the crooked cop when she had the chance, her chance to be Biden’s VP is over.

Politicking at play

Hmm, sounds familiar (cough, cough, affirmative action 🙄)

TRANSLATION: While racial animosity is acute it should exploited. Put a token Black woman on the ticket so Blacks will vote for the white man they want in office. amyklobuchar is one bold racist.

I call the BULLSHIT card! Why are you always doing this. Find someone qualified...who cares what color they are! THIS IS RACIST to everyone. I am no better and neither are you! When are you all going to stop dividing us all.

Class act

I don’t care about qualifications(which is overrated in politics), we need someone that will get people out to vote in record numbers to oust Trump. That’s not Abrams or Kamela.

Not sure I agree with that decision. Biden should pick the most qualified person...REGARDLESS of color, gender, religion, or sexual orientation. If that happens to be a black woman, then great - so be it. But don't be exclusive in making ANY considerations.

Would've thought that was obvious.

What a Patriot.

Thats true leadership and patriotism! She would have been one hell of a VP and a true servant of the Ppl in the WH!

KAMALA FOR VICE PRESIDENT 2020

At this point I don't care what color or sex the president & VP are, just as long as they can do their fucking job.

CHOOSE TULSI GILBRAND!!!MOST COMPETENT FEMALE AVAILABLE!!!

She would have been better as the Democratic nominee, vs Joe Biden, at least she's not entering into dementia.

It's over

Is this about, what Biden said ' if you don't vote for me you're not Black'? That's idiotic...

Doesn't mean that the woman is capable to serve. It's not about color, it's accomplishments and dedication to her job. We put Hilary C as state secretary. She enriched herself and undermined the safety of this country and abroad. Benghazi? Deleted emails, etc

I was kinda an Amy is ok (a little more moderate than I prefer), but my estimation of her as a politician and a person just surged tremendously. Imagine if more people in DC actually made personal sacrifices for the greater good.

Yes

Something is wrong here.

Nice one Amy

Wasn’t she a prosecutor who had some issue with the police and didn’t follow up on it ? Pretty sure that disqualifies her right there. So best to get out in front and put the good democratic spin on it.

Ilhan omar 🤣

That's racist how about any colour but who is best for the job .we need to stop with covering everything with racist comments.

So now we are being sexist and racist instead of finding the best person fit for the job

Here’s Nancy Pelosi’s California a Democratic state!!! BLM doesn’t matter here!!

KamalaHarris

What a wise lady! If she didn’t remove herself, Biden would be removed by people!

All bullshit. They’ve been given their marching orders and they’re getting the public ready for Michael Obama to be the running mate.

MichelleObama next VP!

Rude. So she’s basically implying that the only way a black woman can get a good job is if a white woman gives her her own spot? Way to drive home the stereotype

When u refer to a set of people as people with colour, I don't get it. Does that make you colourless?

What a Lady✨💫❤️

A class act from Day 1!

She knew that with everything going on her record it wasn’t ready for that deep dive

Ohhhh Amy, that's not going to fly either! GoJoe2020 Is not JoJo Siwa.

ewarren?

So very sad to see Amy take her name out of contention for VP! She would have been an excellent person to hold that position. But, as she said, there are many things that will benefit from her expertise in the Senate going forward. Thank you, Sen Klobuscar, for all your work!

Never wanted her to be the VP pick so win win

what about a bi racial trans quadriplegic ?

It worked our real well with obama I'm sure people that are even worse sellouts now will totally do all the things obama didnt. Trump is also nowhere near a winner in this. Both are trash and the next vp is almost certainly going to be compete undiluted trash. The list is trash!.

And no one really cares!

Im neutral, but I never understood selecting someone solely on the basis of their demographics. In all aspects of life, the most qualified person should get the role, period.

I don’t think she was in serious contention. Less after being the prosecutor who was on duty when the Minneapolis cop was up on potential charges the last time and passing on to the next person. GOP would have ran that continually.

That's racists.

“Dear voters, I am sacrificing my brilliant God-given duty to govern you so that a lowlier lady of pigment can step up and prove how awesome I am to surrender my bright white birthright.” - Amy

So she condones discrimination. Now it's on record.

Make it a Biden-Obama running! Is a former president allowed to become VP? Have all the national and international laws that 45 has broken made that moot yet?

I heard she gave the cop that choked George Floyd a pass on a police brutality rap while she was in charge there. No idea if it’s true though.

😢

Goes to show there ARE people who think of others and not themselves in this ME ME world as Mr Trump does...Not worthy of President label

Ooorrrrr she just didn't wanna get sniffed/fondled whenever she shampooed her hair or used a new dryer sheet....

The most qualified contender is dropping out because her skin is too light. That’s why the Dem party is failing.

It takes selflessness and humbleness to know what this country needs to heal and restore itself. Klobuchar understands the times. Trump and the GOP enablers have literally reversed history. Commend her to be assertive enough to know when her time will come.

All she had to do was step aside. 🤷‍♂️

Moron, so the job should just go to someone of color because of what it going on in this country. I support BLM! I sure would think if Biden picks a person of color just for their color of their skin like you said that they don’t feel deserving. An honor to be asked!

Bc the man cannot win otherwise. He needs to buy votes bc in 40 years he has done nothing for the African American community. Now he is going to pander a VP candidate that’s both a woman and African American.

🇺🇸voglio tornare a casa vi prego ?

Seems to be on the nice side but she has the Karen cut for sure.

Haha as if she stood .1% chance

EVargasTV She wasn't going to be selected anyway!

Senator, you are a class act putting the party and country first. Thank you...hope to see you around, January?

You mean your states a mess

Oooooooooor.... I know he ain't picking me so I'm gonna fall back and see if I scoop up some clout on the way out.

She’s removes herself from consideration well knowing she wasn’t going to be pick anyway.

If people didn’t vote for certain candidates to be over a state and didn’t vote for them in the primary what makes anyone think they would vote for them for Vice President

❤️

Too obvious... Michelle Obama..

Color of skin should not be a factor. Content of her character.

“I have a dream that my four children will one day live in a nation where they will not be judged by the colour of their skin, but by the content of their character” - Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr.... Democrat hypocrites!

she can just hear the backlash saying Biden should've chosen a woman of color over her if she did happen to get picked. I also think she still has her eye on the presidency in the future, and this gives her some 'moral high ground' to cash in on later. this process is fucked.

This is a far too late and sloppy exit for someone who is partially responsible for the the current revolution that was aided by her bias as prosecutor. She was essentially fired implicitly and decided to resign anyway. How truly tone deaf can one become? amyklobuchar

You are Black Amy but fine. ▶️.

BlackLivesMatter

Objectively reviewing your case record would be action, Amy. You can't sacrifice something you never really had just because you got official word today of your rejection for it.

Huhm... Could this have something to do with it?

Amy you Coward!

The Sad part which no one once to say is America is not ready for a woman in command. It’s sad but it’s true. Grandpa needs to pick someone who he really wants. He should not be boxed in to picking a woman of color. Let uncle joe pick who he wants.

What's going on with Hillary Clinton?🤔

So, this instantly makes 75% of society ineligible for the job. I'm sure the left would also prefer an LGBTQ person which would change that number to 87.5% of excluded from the position of vice-president ... inclusion equality 🤔

Sounds like Amy Klobuchar just might be a racist. She removes herself from the competition so a woman of color can have a chance? As if the woman of color couldn't win so long as there's a white woman competing? These liberals are the dumbest bunch of people in US history!

Dems pacifying & insulting our intelligence for votes again🤦🏾‍♂️

Not saying a woman of color is not qualified to be Vice President but that should not be the only reason she gets pick I think it’s kind of a insult to think that would be the only reason to vote for Biden

If some how we end up being stuck with Biden over Trump, I would just prefer to have the person that would do the best job as VP. Don't care about skin color. But I see Trump winning again.

Say what? Amy Klobuchar actually did a good thing? I can't help be critical. I think the backlash Amy got for the Derek Chauvin case hurt her reputation. Also, Klobuchar has a poor race relations record in Minnesota didn't help either.

🤦‍♂️

That was dumb Amy. That was the closest you were ever going to be President. With Joe pushing 78, hey you never know, you could have had it handed to you. So now you want a nobody, just as long as she's black, to be next in line. This is why the Demarcates will lose. Stupid

NikkiHaley ?

AOC is yo time

Thank you amyklobuchar.

Huh, ?(in a Scooby Doo voice)

Since when do we pick people based on their color?! What happened to their Character? Like MLK said

If you don’t see this as her move to retain her seat, you’re blind. It’s all about popularity and she doesn’t cut it as a potential VP. Besides, she and Pence would have the most boring debate ever.

Good.

She can’t be his running mate. Good call.

Why everyone became so Hypocrite. The issue is that the women who is going to hired, won't be hired for her professional background and skills but only because she is black. THIS IS DISCRIMINATION!!

Because she knows her record as a prosecutor in Minnesota disqualifies her within the Democrat party lol. Amy Klobuchar is a hack whose just trying to save face 😂😂😂

KaciKCTV5 Wow! Racist much?!

It’s called positive discrimination - when there are two or more people equally good enough to do the job you choose the person of colour in order to begin to get a fair representation of society in a particular field!

Sorry to hear this. Sen Klobuchar has the knowledge, skills and abilities to do that job and to step-in as president if needed.

Oh for fucks sake.

Removed herself. That's comedy. She never had a chance

And she has that whole letting Officer Chauvin go to kill another day thing going on...

That’s racist

Does she want a medal?

After minneapolis,she never had a chance.

Such Bullshit happens too frequently in America. People should be chosen for their merit not for their ethnic popularity.

Just because? Orrrr?

The DNC paid her off ! Follow the $$$$.

Can we not just get someone qualified? This seems like pandering. That's our problem. We focus on image instead of qualification. That's why things are so messed up. We need qualified people regardless of sex, color etc. Just be fucking qualified!

TulsiGabbard

Elderly gentleman seeking a lesbian muslim person of color preferably in a wheelchair to be his vice president and to remind him where he is and what he was saying. Content of character not relevant nor is requirement for a US birth certificate. Most importantly must SMELL GOOD!

Translation: I don't want to remind black voters that I declined to prosecute Minneapolis police officer Derek Chauvin when I was Hennepin County's Top Prosecutor, so I am withdrawing from Biden VP contention. BLM amyklobuchar DonaldJTrumpJr TrumpWarRoom KellyannePolls

That’s racist!!!! Are saying a black women could never get picked!!!

It shouldn’t be that color it should be about the person and the qualifications she’s doing this for attention nothing more

Because, picking a political candidate based upon immutable characteristics instead of...I don’t know... AN ACTUAL SKILLSET? ...such a sensible thing. 🙄

She also know that Biden is a sinking ship.

How racist of her

Identity politics at it's best

I would be happy if he just choose someone with a brain...

I

Translation Liz the lier can kiss my azzz-lol

I think it's because people know she let the cop who killed George Floyd off the hook in a previous civilian death

It’s because she is the reason Derek Chauvin is still a cop and she knows Biden has no chance with her.

What about voting for the most qualified?

What a virtue signaling dweeb.

Better to be a Woke Selfless Hero than a Loser who wasn't picked to be VP. Her 'magnanimous' act of withdrawing from consideration should earn her a few points when she runs again for President in 2024.

Yep, super racist of her. 'I look to a day when people will not be judged by the color of their skin, but by the content of their character.' Martin Luther King, Jr.

🤣

Is that how we choose our leaders? Sex & Race? Oh pa-lease get these fools out of here.

The best person should be his choice !

Why?

She was never going to be picked anyway amyklobuchar

Wow now we select people based on race and gender, that was illegal a few months ago.

Honestly, I think she was only on the short list as a repayment for her endorsement of him at a critical juncture. My guess is she already knows who he has selected.

Liz Warren for VP. Harris for AG. Everyone else gets a Cabinet post. Change the world.

So. Much. Pandering. Blacks see through it

Seems racist

She had no chance. Also, she is a loser.

What about best candidate?

So stupid !

Biden-Harris 2020. Harris-Klobuchar 2024 and 2028. Maybe Pete after that. Thank you and goodnight.

good decision

We should all show of force to vote trump out. He will try to cheat and steal the votes just to stay in power.

White is a color, but if she's that dense be on your way.

👍🏻👏🏻

🤣 how conceded

She didn't want to be loser

That's too bad. I think she is brilliant!

Because thats how he can win right? Let's use a black person to get votes at a time when the media has racially divided the country. Then if you don't vote for Joe, you must be a racist, Or you just ain't black.

C.Rice would be the ultimate best!

BidenHarris2020

Say it however you want, we know it’s because of your record as Hennepin County DA.

Good

Really? CLOWNSHOW

Rep Barbara lee 🙏🏽

I don’t trust Harris at all take Warren 👌🏽👌🏽

Yeah, me too. I just removed any thought of running and winning as the next President of the United States in 2024 because I want to give a black woman a better chance at it.

She's really big for that. I am excited about November!
