Kamala Harris is poised to officially become the first Black woman and first woman of Indian descent on a major party’s White House ticket

Kamala Harris is slated to accept the vice-presidential nomination—officially becoming the first woman of color on a major party’s ticket—in a prime-time address that will offer a closer look at how Democrats will deploy the California senator as they make their case against President Trump this fall.

After a week of minimal public appearances since being tapped by former Vice President Joe Biden to serve as his running mate, Ms. Harris will have the opportunity Wednesday during the third night of the party’s virtual convention...

Yawn

Not part Jamaican?

What in the hell did she do to her face. My God thats horrible.

She is afroindian?

Make up your mind which hyphen is she?

Come a long way from “dating” Mayor Brown.

As a 'non American' I have a question, ' why is she a' black woman and woman of Indian decent' mad not a 'Indian woman and woman of African decent'? Or half black, half Indian?

The whole life she trying to prove black women and suddenly to grab Indian community votes she just became Indian. Onle fool can trust you. Biden is idiots and you are in the que to be his witch

She doesn’t appeal a bit to African-Americans. She’s a dud. Just say NO to basement Joe.

She is as Indian as Imran Khan.

Wow - now I demand an American of Italian descent on the next Presidential ticket! There has never been one. When is it our turn? 😩

Also the first woman descendant of slave owners, while we are at it

Indian as from India! Is she an American born citizen?

Is George Floyd the first Black man of African decent to be murdered by the police?

She's black?

Making seem like itsmall about her races...she has several

Yup, I’ve heard...she’s Asian, black, Latino. She’s everything to persuade America for the Dems next thing she will be Italian and trans

Also the first female decendant of a Slave Owner, head hunted by the Democrats for VP Candidacy, as a token reparation...yeah, I don't get it either.

Neither of which should ever be a factor in casting a vote for a candidate. Race and sex have zero to do with policy and ideology which is all that any voter should use to measure a candidacy. NEVER LISTEN TO WHAT A POLITICIAN SAYS. Just look at their track record.

If she is black then Y has she hindutva Indian name. Y all Bjp/rss regime mouthpiece media celebrating her nomination, but nothing like it in her father’s birthplace, if she is black what nationality is her mom? BLACKS COME FROM AFRICAN ANCESTRIES & not ASIAN. I rest my case!

Wow !!

Wow. I wonder if KamalaHarris would use the word black to describe her heritage..(there is no need to label people like that)

Slave owner

Terrible choice the left forced upon old Joe.

Is she black?

thankyounext

So what? Is it because she fits that criteria or does she have skills

This could be the lowest rated night of the bunch.

She's one of us; multicultural son's and daughter's of immigrants along the timeline of her/ our family history. She's one of US!

First lady to state she smoked weed too which her dad was pissed off.

So many crass “Willie Brown” comments. Now I have to google Kamala Harris and Willie Brown to understand the references.

She never said she is Indian, until she was a vice president candidate. She always speak anti India, anti Hindu. I as a NRI in USA will not vote for her. KamlaHarris changes color like Chameleon KamalHarrisisChameleon. VoteRed2020 VoteBidenHarris2020

Maybe USA is still racist because this perception didn’t change? We all descended from the same ancestors - when will journalists get that? And why is color a more important focus than deeds?

followed by being the President of the United States as soon as they oust Biden for being mentally incompetent.

Who gives a damn

Hopefully, America will never see another Con Man Trump again.

So what?

Black? 😂 😆 😝 hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha

She really isnt black.

And she got this unique position not because she was the smartest or most knowledgeable but rather by affirmative action. She won the lottery between black females...not best candidates. Amazing when we pick folks because of gender and race vs. best abilities.

If she was black, why is she seen in INDIAN cookery tv show channels. If she was black she would have Christian name. If she was black she would stand up against the injustices intolerance lynching little gang rapes girls murders n occupation of Kashmiri land. So plz sort it out.

I'm confused about the way she's being described. She's Indian & Jamaican... raised predominantly by her mother and Indian family while her father moved back to Jamaica. So why is she automatically labeled 'Black'? Why isn't she called Indian American with Jamaican ancestry?

'You ain't black'

Damn shame that these two incredible distinctions go to someone as awful as Kamala Harris.

If she is black then why has she got a hindutva Indian name and if she is black what nationality is her mom? BLACKS COME FROM AFRICAN ANCESTRIES & not ASIAN. I rest my case!

What about Shirley Chisholm? Wasn’t she the first black woman to run for president?

She’s not black.

Well, that's a bad mistake!

Kamala Harris For The People

💤

Long long overdue!

She light skinded.

We aren’t supposed to judge or hire someone of the basis of race or gender so why do Democrats chose their candidates based on exactly that?

It was they way she got there's that is very disturbing.

Senator Harris, my daughter is graduating from Law school pretty soon and is thinking about going into politics. Do you have any advice for her?

So what? Does that make her less incompetent or less of a hypocrite? I seem to recall that it is the content of one’s character rather than the color of one’s skin that matters. Her character was on full display during the kavanaugh hearings. It was unimpressive.

She was also poised to be the first woman in American history to literally fuck her way into a position of political power.

Why do all of you say that race doesn't matter and then only talk about race when anyone accomplishes anything?

The DemocraticParty is a form of Oppression that's marketed as a Benefit, just like EmployerSponsored HealthInsurance!

You mean the first “black” woman of Indian descent whose family owned 200 slaves?

That's all it takes, do the Labels thing, you're in.

She's not black she's mixed race. Your ignorance is breathtaking.

WTF! How is she black? She is NOT black!!!! I’m Indian, I’ve NEVER BEEN BLACK!!!! She ain’t a woman either!!

not much support for someone who never had to register for the draft

She’s is Indian & Jamaican ... She was sworn in Senate as Asian decent so WHAT IS SHE?!!

which one? Make up your mind.

SHE’S NOT NOT NOT BLACK. She has a hindutva name KAMALA. She eats drinks worships n appears INDIA. I have never heard or seen a black Hindu. Just couple of years ago Wikipedia didn’t had any information about her father, but now...all of a sudden she is black. I’m blown away wow.

Kamala harris’ descendant owned 200 slaves

The second woman on the ballet to lose

not black family slave owners wake up Jamaican

And that’s as far as it’ll go

'Black' woman?... Color unnecessary

Since when do we elect a VP before we elect a President idiots

Whoopie dang doo what is most important is her Character , is she Honest , Does she truly trust in God as that is our USA Moro that the Dems seem to have forgotten look it up. Is she truly for the American people or for her own gain? This is what truly matters Franklin_Graham

She IS NOT BLACK!!!!! Indian & Jamaican. She is not a Foundational Black American!! WhiteMedia FakeMedia

also, the first home-wrecking prostitute

Thank you for not calling her 'South Asian' and correctly using 'Indian descent' instead. 👏

Kamala Harris wasn't chosen on merit but because she's a female POC.

Yawn.

She is as black as Warren is native american. Please talk about the USPS situation.

Even DEMOCRATS hate her. She did worst than almost any other candidate in the primary. I think Mike Dukakis is more popular than Kamala Harris.

She's about as black as Pocahontas is Native American Indian.

Will she sided with India no matter what?

Progress is when the cop beating up a black man for a bag of weed is also black, and the blacker the cop is the more progressive we’ve become.

and I should care about that.... why?

It’s amazing she doesn’t support carmenbest but encourages defunding the police allowing these types of events to happen in Seattle & Portland

so what?

Who cares?

🤢🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮🤢🤮🤢🤮🚮

Joe Biden 1st Ukraine, Russian Irish White Democrat Presidential nominee.

NikkiHaley is wondering where her identity politics parade was when she achieved her positions.

I wish WSJ could just simply say she is poised to be the first WOMEN VP. I wish people would stop with the racial connotations.

Tokenism, not merit. When a party bars consideration of candidates from any gender or race, then that party is screamingly bigoted. NEVER be proud of discrimination.

hard hitting news here...

First of all, she is a radical left.

According to her own father, Kamala Harris' ancestors not only owned slaves, but traded them. Apparently that doesn't matter any more.

Biden leads, Trump follows! JoeBiden led on wearing Masks, he literally educated realDonaldTrump on the right thing to do! He also led on how to run the Convention; Trump was initially planning in-person convention in N Carolina, wow!then moved to Florida then cancelled, lol!
