More than 100 Black men have signed an open letter to presumptive Democratic presidential nominee Joe Biden urging him to pick a Black woman as his vice president, writing that 'failing to select a Black woman in 2020 means you will lose the election'

Washington More than 100 Black men on Monday signed an open letter to presumptive Democratic presidential nominee Joe Biden urging him to pick a Black woman as his vice president, writing that"failing to select a Black woman in 2020 means you will lose the election."

The letter represents a last-minute push by outside groups to pressure Biden to pick a Black woman as his running mate. Biden is expected to formally announce his choice this week, ahead of the Democratic National Convention, after months of speculation and the vetting of several candidates by his team. The signers of the letter include Black leaders across several industries.

It sound like blackmailing

Isn't that known as blackmail no pun intended!!!

Right!!!!! You all need to run with this on every television station!!!! Americanpeople need to know the truth!!! When a running mate for President gets a letter like that we deserve to know and have it plastered

If he likes, let him Rice as his running mate, he is bound to lose. 100 black men? This shows how unpopular this Democrats actually are.

Is Kamala black enough?

Wow 100 huh? That’s about as many people that actually had Covid 0.000004% of the population. It’s like the 15 doctors that think kids shouldn’t go to school! CNN’s numbers are a joke for anyone who can do basic math!

Wonder if he demands a black woman for a pilot when he flys or the most qualified pilot regardless of gender or skin color?

Yeah don’t look at the qualifications look at the color of their skin. MLK rolling in his grave. Hypocrite DNC is a racist organization

He's gonna loose anyways.

He SHOULD pick a female because America is not a homogeneous culture consisting of only white males. RepresentationMatters BidenHarris2020 BidenRice AnyoneButTrump2020

💯?

FUCKDEMOCRATS

Wouldn’t it be considered racist to vote for icky Joe Biden simply because his running mate is a black female? 🤔 I can’t keep up.

How is that NOT racist by picking someone ONLY for the color of their skin?

100 racist black men **

That gets you a survey question on Family Fued. Why do you think this is news?

I wonder why CNN does not cover a story about increased hate crimes that are happening across America? alllivesmatter childrenlivesmatter

Using gender and racial attributes as a basis for deciding to approve a job applicant is against federal law.

As a competition Trump has shooted rehearsal in White House

So, if he selects Tammy Duckworth, that's somehow a bad thing? I guess she's not a female POC, according to those racist clowns.

This is just to stupid to be true

Haha haha more than 100, I see longer queues at McDonald’s

Now black people sign the first order for Joe Biden What to do? black woman VP Or loose the black voters support? Joe Biden not yet President and he is all ready compromise. Black people Bernie supporters Extreme leftist Green deal High taxes What he can REALLY do?

JUST 🛑!

TheDemocrats Ironically, BLACK WOMEN HAVE BEEN N OFFICE +4 DECADES, YET BLM, ANTIFA, NAACP, & ALL RACISTS ACROSS AMERICA, HYPOCRITICALLY SAY BLACKS R STILL OPPRESSED! EXPLAIN THAT LIE! WE SEE THE CITIES THESE BLACK WOMEN ARE RUNNING TODAY AND THE MERE CHAOS W/IN THEM! LIE/DENY

if not selecting a person based on race will mean you lose; You know you're racist. I don't want a black president, woman president, etc etc. I just want a good president and I quite literally do not care about their gender or race or any word the democrats made to divide us

I’d like to see a woman in office. But I think picking a running mate based on character, values and policy would be more important than their skin color or gender. Also, Americans are voting for a president not a VP. JoeBiden

Why? Are they hoping to elect a Democrat that isn’t racist? Hmm

I believe black women also signed. And, I resent anyone using their vote as blackmail. They can just go through another 4 years with Massa as president. It will hurt them more than Biden!

He gonna lose anyways!!

why are you asking biden? ask democrat leaders who they want. they'll be running the country if he wins. IF.

Oh you guys are so full of crap. Especially when the majority of blacks are actually voting for Trump.

That’s racist! Speaking of racism, JoeBiden and his family are racists. His great grandfather was a Confederate and owned slaves. Wake Up, America!

He'll buckle and do it and then say he was going to do it all along.

Yeah like being black will do better than a brown, white or yellow ... it’s about integrity, a person with the will to help our country that’s sinking by the second.

Prejudice in reverse?

Back to the basement...

I agree diversity is important as hell BUT you shouldn’t be picking a VP based on their ethnicity!

Why didn’t they work harder to get a WOC on the ballot to be president? Where were their contributions? What rallies did they attend? Where was their voice?

Oh my , these people are so stupid! Fine, he'll lose, and you'll be 3/5 human again! Enjoy the plantation!

The ignorance is blatant.

100 people signing a petition doesnt really seem like news to me in an age where tens of thousands sign them to resurrect their cancelled shows

God forbid he chooses the best candidate available, regardless of color or gender…

😂😂😂😂🤣🤣🤣🤣✌🏾

Before you get all up in arms just remember this says, '100'. That's hardly representative or substantial.

Lolol liberals are the worst kind of humans - elect an Asian trans person or your a homophobic racist!!!

100 men speak for all black men? And all that matters is skin color? Doesn't sound healthy or rational. Maybe even racist.

This is a false choice. I am a black woman and I wont base my vote on the amount of melanin in the VP. The moment is too grave for anyone to be this shortsighted. GTFOH

So what!

Only 100 that hardly seems news worthy

Might aswel choose a crackhead from the black community it's the same thing. crackheadforVP BlackLivesMatter 😆😆😂

And there you go.....

He is gonna lose the election no matter who he picks.

No, he's going to pick McKnees Kamala. No worries tho, because he will NEVER BE President!

Your virtue signal is showing.

Don't forget they were celebrities. Shouldn't that be part of the headline?

This is not right. If 100 white men did the same what would you call it?

Leaders? Did you see the list?

Politics are no longer about the right candidate. Just the right color candidate.

How is that possible? If Biden loses, is anyone black?

So just to be clear, forcing a presidential nominee to pick a race and gender VP isn’t racist or sexiest? Got it. It’s not racist if it works in black people’s favor.

Condelza Rice would be an amazing pick.

Probably won't vote for Biden BECAUSE of the 'mandatory' mindset of who he MUST pick for VP. What a crock! And if Biden can't finish his term? OMG, a disaster!!!!

Poor Joe. Already being led by the nose and telling him what he needs to do. Imagine what it would be like if he actually was elected? No thanks!!

I am sorry, but Biden will not win the election.

But Biden thinks all black people think the same anyway

So pick somebody of color Instead of the most qualified got it

This is SO infuriating. You should be picked because you are the most qualified person to be for the ticket.

Bullshit! Pick the right person, any gender. Black politicians are just as much garbage as white ones.

Gender and race are most important in the hiring process

Whats the problem he said he is

Who cares. He does not know what day of the week it is

I’ll bet anybody biden losses this election. Where’s your money POS.

Usually vp pick doesn’t matter - whoever he picks Biden will still beat trump in a landslide

So if he doesn't pick a black woman he will lose? That is a racist comment for sure.

Only 100 not many

Should not pick based on color of skin or gender but on the qualifications only.

Yes than a Black General therefore a Black Judge the colour of skin is the new meritocratic system Communist Network News

A whole 100? Wow! That’s impressive. GTFOH

I would NOT pick Kamala.... that lady went hard on him in a effort to call him racist and that he has made too many stupid decisions .... now they are gonna be buds... sorry lady

Wow 100 people

Wow!! That is scary and very disturbing! It’s all about power and control!!!!

I am so sick of this crap that part of me literally wants to give a big FU to Americans and not even bother voting.

Why do the world like aged leaders

But he will not win...

As a black person, I hate this kind of nonsense. Do we really want to risk facing another 4 years with the most self-centered, self-serving, corrupt, divisive president in history, because of a figure head?!? Damn - When boy?!? When?!?

Our vp shld be picked not by gender or color but for their ability to do the job.

So they’d be good with trump again? I don’t like this threat.

Becase America still votes based on color...

And there we have it the black kkk.... Just different style of threatening Well Dems y'all made y'all's bed now sleep in it 😂😂😂😂😂

And where is the fat? No fat candidate? It is scandalous!

100men signed this letter out of some 30 million ppl and this makes CNN news? You gotta ask urself if CNN are really reaching for a story Bet I could quickly find 1000men to sign a letter saying Bidens VP should be whoever is best qualified regardless of race or cervical ability

The phrase, “One cannot see the forest for the trees”, comes to mind.

Why black people like threats? They not even 20% of the population

This “open letter” has a tone of intimidation that nuances schoolyard bullying. Why not just let Biden choose the right person for the position?

Who are these powerful men 😂

Zzzzzzzz

Election interference via bullying because they know his campaign is all about sucking up to blacks for their vote as they sit back smirking.

Makes perfect sense. Color dictates who is best fit for the job👊🏼,

Who cares who he picks as long as they are qualified to do what the job requires. Tired of people forcing who they think he should pick down everyone's throat. Let the man do what's best for his campaign.

Hi there, 100 men, you ain't black if you don't vote for him.

Congratulations on your 100 out of the entire population of the U.S. i guess. Want a participation trophy or something?

100 whole people?

Oohh wow, all hundred of them?

Joe 'Ukraine' Biden will loose anyway !

Lol!!!! Biden is a pandering idiot!!!! Make sure u do what they tell u to do.. oh BtW 48 some odd years in Government, you’ve never done shit! You’re not going to be PRESIDENT!! We love the current one your pres too! potus realdonaldtrump TRUMP2020🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸❤️❤️❤️❤️🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸

They are not wrong. No Kamala.

Haha no wonder you’ll keep losing. Pick people on merit and make sure it’s on merit. Imagine being picked for your colour and not your qualifications how insulting.

Everyone commenting here - mad at Black people excercising their constitutional and democratic rights really needs to think about why that bothers them, & if maybe they have more in common with the other side than they think.

wouldn’t it be cool if JoeBiden picked who Joe wanted to pick? Did South Carolina vote for him because they wanted a black womanVP? Did Kamala dropping out, Mayor Pete and Amy Klobuchar dropping our force him to pick a black vp? a lot happened... that said I want KamalaHarris!!

Now who are the racists

He’s already made that commitment. Now he’s trying to select the best Black Women for the job. It’s either Harris, or Rice unless Michelle Obama decides she wants the job.

This sounds like blackmail. We need to vote for Biden, no matter his VP, to get Trump out. If you’re voting for anyone other than Biden, just because his VP choice isn’t the one you want, you’re voting for Trump, and welcoming in the horror that we’ve lived for another 4 years.

Joe biden is the right candidate who have inclusive thinking. He will surely think.

Ideally it will be the best person for the job....but admittedly America doesn’t have the best track record on that front based on the current incumbent

Genuine question. I mean no disrespect. Are people in the black community really willing to hold it over...the country's head, if he doesn't pick a black female running mate? Are black voters really willing to take 4 more years of Trump? We will all be happy if he picks a black..

By writing, signing, and publicizing that letter they have deprived Biden and his running mate of perceived legitimacy. Any Black woman chosen will be viewed as a token. Any non-Black woman will cost Biden votes. That letter was an understandable, yet regrettable mistake.

Why Not Pick the most qualified for the Job and not because of race.

So does that mean Black people believe Joe Biden is not fit to be President on his own?

Is it 'cus I is black? It is.

Nothing like identity politics of the left, that’s all they know. Work on policy’s and the best person for the job. Pandering to identity politics is why so many are leaving the party

Didn't we have enough extortion during the past 3.5 years? While I do very well understand the urgency for an African-American VP, I still want VP Biden to be free from any pressure to make his decision. He will have to consider many more factors during the evaluation than colour

You rip what you saw. Democrat Party could had avoided being plagued by the radical left and fascist organisations like BLM. But now it's too late. Vote for Biden is vote for them. Liberals of USA, open your eyes.

Wait a minute. That's blackmail

Best thing to do is to amend the constitution to have multiple VPs, white M&f, black M&F, Hispanic M&f, LGBT M&f, so many combinations... Only character and competence should come into play...

Wow. Demands, huh? What about any woman? I hate this world.

Racists pick people for the colour of their skin.

CNN has no credibility

There are 21M black men in the USA (2018) and are these 100 men suppose to represent all black voters? So if Biden selects a black woman they take credit and if he doesn't they don't vote or vote for Trump? Empty threats piss me off, but I doubt this letter will have any effect

Black all the way. It's time.

ain’t that a crock a shit

This is just reverse racism from liberals

Ummmm? Threatening usually backfires........🤷‍♀️🤦‍♀️🛑🎪🛑

How about selecting the best person for the job?

Kind of ridiculous. A hundred black men out of millions.

Regardless of choice Americans will never vote for nursinghomebiden. Only cnn clones and pelosi stooges. That’s 30 votes.

He is going to lose anyway were trying to rid the world of pedophiles not invite them in

Joe doesn’t see color. He only see’s little people wearing Depends, riding on purple horseback with bow & arrows & spears, screaming; “Corn Pop Is A Bad Dude” “You Aint Black”, “C’mon Man” and “Ya Know, Th-Th-That Thing”

Another twist in the race Joe Biden shouldn't have made choosing a female running mate so open He should just make his choice already, now he is been threatened he will loose Who are these 100 black men? Let the gods answer for us

Trump best president ever ♥️

The US needs a person who can do the job period. Someone will have to cover for sleepy Joe. Someone who is strong enough to pull the US back together as a unit so that everyone’s needs are met. We can’t change the past but be can sure change the future. Who is most capable?

gotta be kamala

Joe, there are so many quality women on your list I don’t see how you can go wrong. but, me being a pink polka dot person of color,I would be very mad at you if you don’t pick a LBGQ, pink polka dot woman.

100 people. ?

Why not a Hispanic woman?

Reverse racism is still racism. Why are you still supporting this POS.

This must be why they allow black celebrities. To use. To co-opt anything that would help Black Americans and corrupt it. Making it seem as something was done for us when in actuality, it wasn’t.

Wow a whole 100!?

I like Rice. My dice 🎲 like Rice.

I talked to 101 black women today and they all said they are voting for Trump so it makes no difference what the 100 men think.

I dont care who he picks as long as SHE IS THE BEST QUALIFIED FOR THE JOB!

BreakingNews. JoeBiden will not listen to BlackLivesMatter. He is pleased to announce his running mate😎

Hasn't Biden already committed to picking a Black woman? Why threaten? We just need to work on getting the Crazy out of the White House.

Who cares if she’s qualified. “Content of (her) character, not the color of (her) skin.” Dr. King meant what he said...and y’all are pissing it away with this horseshit.

The prime qualification for VP in 2020 is a black vagina, ok.

TRUMP Mike pence is the best

Trump 2020

What if he picks Candace Owens?

They don't even pick black woman...

Why is the wants of 100 men considered to be NEWS?

He should never have promised that.

Oh no! All 100 of them?

This is insulting to woman’s and men’s in general !! All in the name of communism.. oops 😬 I meant democracy

Affirmative action at the highest level. Unless he can pull Michelle Obama away from her net neutrality Netflix fortune to run as VP, he stands no chance. Luckily he is unlikely to remember the race for very long!

Instead of picking the best person for the job huh?

Why not let some black women sign the letter. Sounds misogynistic. Feminism blm

Right. Demanding someone be a certain race and gender isn’t the *least* bit.... RACIST? It has to work both ways, guys

Oooof they ma-a-a-a-a-a-a-a-a-a-d in the comments

JoeBiden has competence, coldness, intelligence and Will be right thing. Believe it WhiteHouse needs a cleaning. And without a change in policy, the American citizen loses, it will be numbers over'100'. Although realDonaldTrump's political suicide is imminent.

Only 100 black men? I wish they can put such energy into creating value in the system.

You mean the ones that think alike. 🤔

So they would rather 4 more Trump years. Sounds like a Republican ploy.

Too bad all the black lady candidates are flawed

100? Such a tiny number, doesn't stand for anything.

Did Don Lemon start the letter campaign. If Joe doesnt pick a black woman then you going to call your black bros to do some more lootin and rampage, hit the foot locker again. He should pick the most qualified woman and maybe thats not black. Were over the BLM entitlement

blexit walkaway The parties never magically flip flopped in the 60s. Dems are still the racist party who view blacks as pawns to get them into power. Dems love black communities in ruins, that way they can pander to them and project all their problems unto republicans

So he should ...Profile? Thought profiling was a bad thing?

More than 10000 white women say Joe should go home and stay home...

Come on man. Whats your delusion today ?

Thought that we weren't suppose to fill positions by discriminating on gender and race... unless its by the very people that tells us that is is bad I guess. Hate whites, men and heterosexuals, everything goes.

So this means that if Trump chose a black woman for VP and Biden doesn't, they'll support the first?

For petes sake ... everyone is a racist

RACISTS!

There are more than a hundred other men just thinking, select a qualified candidate. If we lose, you reap what you sow.

I would love to see a woman. I would love to see a black woman. But, above all, I would love to see trump, his family and cabinet IN JAIL

Let’s make that 101. Joe pick a blackfemale as your VP

Black lives pressure 🤔🤷🏻‍♂️

Please subscribe my channel.

Are they all registered voters?

Several of the signators are CCN correspondents. BS.

Black mail?

Don’t pick the best candidate, pick based on their skin color. Gosh, that sure sounds racist to me... 🤔

He will lose anyway...

That’s just wrong

We all know it’s going to be Kamilla. No need to protest anything. Idiots.

A ploy to capture 2 demographics. Nothing more than that.

so .0003% of the black population.. stop the presses

Only 100 black men sounded off? What about the other 20 millions?

So? Try again in 2024 what’s the bi g deal? There’s more to life than winning What exactly can Dem do better? Bkack, men, white man, bkack women, white women? Why are color & gender an issue? In anything? Politic, business public servant QUALIFICATIONS,SKILLS are important

REPORT THAT THIS IS RACIST! FakeNews EnemyOfThePeople requiring a vp be a certain race/gender RACIST! DNC the party of racist hate and fear!

100? Is that an impressive number?

This could be it

100? only 100? 300,000 million people and 100

A black female vp would be great but saying the vp has to be one is kinda weird

JoeBiden do the right thing BLM

He needs to pick the most qualified person, whoever that may be.

More than 100? That’s hardly a number. Is that a typo?

He should pick the person that is right for his presidency. Someone who either compliments his strengths or who can balance his weaknesses. Should not matter if male/ female or any race or religion. He says will be a woman - so he just needs to pick the best for his needs

You mean 100 racist scum bad men. Do people realize how evil and destructive identity politics is? The Left and their obsession with race, class, gender will be what destroys this country.

what happened to picking the best person for the job lmao

nagro?

Well isn't that racist? Affirmative action in action.

Skin color isn't going to make any difference in the end.

So 100 people sign a letter and a candidate for the presidency is supposed to bow down to their command? Seems like a dangerous precedent to set.

Is this going to be a threat every election now?

Chosing a VP just because they are black is ridiculous

Black people tried to use the Freudian incident to influence the American presidential election. But a more powerful tool is to field their own candidates, rather than cling to whites.

It would be a setback if he doesn't select a woman of color however it wouldn't guarantee a defeat for him,a lot of people like me are just tired of Trump's antics right now and I'm willing to see beyond skin color along as Biden has confidence in the pick.

Threats really!

Haha so they are bribing him into picking who they want, not necessarily the most qualified. Seems like a legit way to pick you VP 😂😂😂

The last election wasnt about policies if that was the case, Hillary would be president. She had a website and receipts. Elizabeth Warren have that energy and will make Trump give us an answer about these NDA's. Ask Bloomberg. We need excitement and energy warrenforvp

How about you get the best qualified candidate smh 😒

This is ridiculous, he should pick a competent running mate. Male or Female, black or white should not be the focus. Our country is in desperate need for unifying leadership.

Sounds like blackmail

At this point I could care less if he picks a cocker spaniel. We need to beat trump

If color and gender represent the qualities of a good leader, I mean why else would he pick based on color and gender, we now he ain’t racist (i.e. judgment based on race), then why aint a Black Female running for office? He selection is counterintuitive to his reasons.

Threatening poor old Joe ..🙄

Modern racism is so ironic

Love this Ideaj president JoeBidenForPresident2020 joe

Michigan Gov. Whitmer for VP is most capable straight talking politician not gamer. Joe Biden needs capable VP to dig out America from mess Trump has created.

so... this person will get the job over someone else, based solely on the color of their skin. amazing logic. i can sense the end of racism is very near.

All I can do for this is 😂

One hundred? Lol.

Lol so they are blackmailing him

Really? Cause Trump is so good to the black community? Either this is fake or these are some really stupid people who would rather have a white supremacist as President (and Vice President) if Biden fails to choose a black woman. Guess that’s why it’s only around 100. Dumbasses.

For starters no one is pressing the issue of a black woman as VP. That isn't our objective at all, its reparations and other tangibles for Black Americans. Also I like many other black people knows many non-black women isn't going to go along with that either, just being Frank!

So according to Biden, that means all black men right? With notable exceptions of course.

RACIST

Yet many black men prefer to date white women.

Woooo more than a hundred?

Picking politicians by color. Ignore the racism! This isn’t racism, it’s just discrimination via skin color.

Firstly he’s already said he’s doing that. But this country, is literally dying and we can’t do 4 more years of trump. Vote for Biden or keep your mouth shut when trump finishes obliterating this country.

His cabinet will be diverse representing all of America,

Pick someone... anyone! I want to get on with saying how unqualified they are.😁

This election is strategic. If a Black woman increases turnout, I agree VP should be a Black woman. His choices are incredible. My fav is Val D who I have followed 2007 to now 1st Police Chief and now US Rep. I'm in a diff district or I would have voted for her.

Wait a minute...I thought making decisions based on skin color was racist and making decisions based on gender was sexist. Trying to keep up with Democrat and JoeBiden double standards is so confusing.

Blatant racism

What happens if Biden picks a black woman & still loses? Will the 100 black men apologize or start a revolution to get him elected? Now imagine if 100 white men wrote a similar letter wanting him to pick a white man, instead? Apparently black racism is cool these days. 😁😁

That’s just idiotic. NO ONE would choose to have trump re-elected because they don’t agree with the VP pick.

He’s always said that he would pick a black woman for the supreme court, but he wants someone that is similar to his views for vice president

100! Is that all the signatures it would take to get something done? Do you think we could find 100 people to sign a letter asking politicians to actually do something about child sex traffic? And how awesome if the media actually covered it!! stopchildtrafficing

Trump’s style-threats, to get what you want? Don’t adopt his tactics. “100 Black men” speaking for all Black voters? Please! Biden will pick who he thinks is best for the job and nothing less. Hope Biden wins no matter who is VP. No nose vs face? Have faith. NoFear Vote

Great!!! Let's combat racism and sexism by doing something that is both racist and sexist...right out of the Democrat libtard playbook.

Yeah pick the presidential candidate( cuase we know Joe not running nothing) based off skin color thats a great strategy.....Demorats

“More than 100 Black men...”. I don’t disagree with the sentiment, but is 100 people hardly a reason to write an article? Lol. There are over a 100 million people who will vote. 100 say he should pick a specific person as VP? Let’s write an article about it. Lol.

Based on qualifications or based on a status quo ?. We need people who know what they are doing not affirmative action

I agree. So much talent, difficult to make s choice.

He's losing the election anyway.

More than 100? Thats all it takes for CNN to cover a story? A group of friends getting together and complaining

Here’s an idea... How about anybody who is qualified for the job! Man ,woman shouldn’t matter RIGHT?Dems want what’s best for the country RIGHT? The left is all for show!! Go ahead and knee jerk a pick because somebody else says so! LMFAO! A whole 100?

You asked for it! You got it! She comes with a fine Negro accent she can turn on and off as needed!

Only the color of your skin should be determined in deciding who to lead our country! Make sure we keep this in mind when we discriminate against all races to advance another! Oh I forgot, thought we’re trying to end slavery

Disgraceful. To think that anyone in this day and age is okay with a presidential candidate choosing their Vice President based on skin color and gender instead of their actual, relevant qualifications is just baffling to me. He’s just trying to pander for your vote y’all 🙄

So pick someone because of the color of their skin and not because they are the best person for the job?

I call that emotional 'blackmale' let him pick who he wants he has always said it would be a woman that right there is a win win Just cause he picks a black woman doesn't mean victory. You can't count the fat wind bag out so stop with the pressure let Joe do his thing

Look guys it doesn't matter if the VP is black or white. What matters is if she qualified. I am just glad that it is going to be a woman.

Considering Biden wrote the bill that lead to the mass incarceration of POC... Yeah, I'd get a black woman for Veep. Black lives matter, prove it, Biden. I might actually consider voting for you if you did, and I'm whiter than the moon.

Well Van Jones is wrong. You select the best candidate for the position, black, hispanic, asian or white. Van Jones wants payback.

Lol please make Kamala Harris your VP. Not because you’ll win, but because it will be incredible to watch virtue signaling and pandering fail for the Democrats yet again.

Sounds like blackmail (pun intended) 😂

100 Black men, with a capital 'B', why should he? If you are black enough, you'll vote for him. He is not worried.

Please choose SenWarren

SKIN PIGMENT DOES NOT DEFINE HUMAN OMNIPOTENCE 💞🙏💞

You ain’t black & you don’t have any diversity unlike the Latino community As said from Joe Biden in different speeches

Well all the black women on his list are dumb so what should he do

😂😂😂😂😂😂 will Quid Pro Joe JoeBiden pick the seditious Susan Rice.

A party that blackmails and bullies themselves will also bully America.

Yep, dont pick them because they are the best choice. Pick them based on skin color. I cant think of a bigger slap to the face to anyone knowing they are there as a token candidate and nothing more. All be it, Biden is a token candidate too so I guess that fits the DNC narrative

so freaking true!!

If that’s true, that’s not right. Biden should be able to pick his own running mate.

Joe 'You ain't black if you don't vote for me!' Biden?

JoeBiden has so many masters!! (and not only the radical left) ... no wonder his hiding in his basement

wow a whole 100.....whoa

Lol the tolerant party that is anti racism is badgering a presidential candidate and cornering them into picking a VP based on the color of their skin.

Yes, Joe Biden should consider a woman of color for VP. There are equally as many great people in this group as others. It could be a turning point in our society. But is this really news? 100 people signed letter? I could get 100 people to sign just about anything in an hour.

The only people pressing this garbage r elite blacks looking 4 a come up. The average poor black american could give a damn about symbolism. Symbolism doesnt feed families or close the racial wealth gap. It only serves the interest of the gilded class. We poor blacks want POLICY!

I just don’t get society sometimes

The blatant racism from liberals hasn't changed abit.

People call that blackmail if the blsck population where 50% then he can pick a black woman for vice president

How dare they?! They would really try to force his hand to pick a black woman as his VP and risk Trump for another four years?! My fellow Americans really are but-asp stupid, aren't they?

Affirmative action at its finest🙄

So if he doesn't they will vote Trump,fuck of

Don't Give IN to their Threat....Pick Whoever YOU Want to Pick BIDEN....if they don't like it, then let them live another 4 years with Trump!

Can u convince a raciest to nominate a black woman? What about a Latina ? More “diverse “

Gotta be Wanda Sykes.

Biden has already chosen Hillary Clinton!

More CNN BS does anyone watch them anymore.

Besides it being racist and sexist but it don’t matter Biden has no chance in hell of winning it does not matter who he picks!!!Donald Trump 2020🥳🥳

Sorry, but I don't want a token VP candidate. McCain did that and it backfired on him. If the right candidate happens to be a black woman, then by all means.

I need help from those with a kind heart and knows single Dad struggles. Unemployed since March and struggling with FL unemployment, my two young Daughters and I need $100 to $200 to cover rent and food. It hurts my pride to ask. If you can. Venmo: Robert-Wheeler-101 Thank you

SKIN COLOR DOES NOT QUALIFY YOU FOR ANYTHING!!!! YOUR SKILLS DO!!

Threats are unacceptable!

Wow 100, really a full one hundred, as a percentage of American Blacks that’s like .000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000 of 1%

Imagine selecting a Vice President based on something they have no control over? JoeBidenIsARacist

Sorry but this PC BS from people insisting the VP pick must be black is really pissing me off. I'm a white woman & I've been waiting to see a woman in the White House all my life. Now it seems that white women, because of their association with white men, have been disregarded.

He won’t lose the election... but he will have a lot of angry people at him

Imagine having to select a VP candidate to hide your racism.

Wow how racist is that?😳

100 men say he'll lose if he doesn't do as they say? In America? In 2020? 100 men actually believe they control the election? FFS.

Democrat or Republican you should have a problem when a candidate bases their decision on race and gender and not qualification.

Ok- this is weird. I hope he picks the most qualified and best person for the job, and if that is a black woman, AMAZING! But don’t blackmail by saying you won’t vote. Fuck off. And sorry but *100* people signed... there are 330 million Americans. 🙄

He should pick a hispanic woman or a black man so their prejudice can be laid bare

Race ought not to be a qualification OR a disqualification: the Content of her/his Character need override the Color of her/his Skin— and gender too! It must be a trustworthy easy confortable respectful relationship.

What % of these black men are with white women? Just curious

You ain't black enough

Angela Davis is my pick

That should not have happened, he should feel free to pick whom ever he is most comfortable with all that have been on the list would make a great VP

Woah, 100! Lmao. Also the blatant racism and sexism off the Democratic Party is amazing this year, especially amazing because they are acting like it is not racism/sexism.

Picking a VP should based on who is the most qualified: man, woman, white, black, brown, yellow, purple or green. Not becauseby the demands, or blackmail, of one group or another. WalkAway from Democrats who bend to blackmail DemocratsTheEnemyWithin

Ohhh stop. He can pick who he wants!! Elizabeth Warren is also an excellent choice. Almost all are as qualified.

This is racism. The best person should be picked, regardless of race or sex. However, the DEMOCRATS, the PARTY OF RACISM and hate, supports JoeBiden using racism to make his pick. If republicans did this, the liberals would lose their fracking minds. THIS IS RACISM!

Wow, so if the VP candidate is not an African American woman they won’t vote for him? I don’t like this kind of politics. Please select a qualified candidate black, white or other. I wouldn’t want to be placed on a ticket bc of these demands.

Just ridiculous that Biden would put himself and the voters in this position, he should not have announced the gender he was going to pick early on, he should have just done it.

If a black female is qualified, sure, not just because of her skin color and gender. 🙄

It is not going to work!!

anyone and I do mean anyone who is supporting biden and democrats are just delusional, they are traitors to this country, if you think socialism is going to work here you are truly mistaken, and that is all democrats want.

Do Americans choose leaders based on the colour of their skin? I thought that was racist and nepotism... choosing a leader should be based on ability.

Blacks are the most racist people in this country and thats a fact.

100 Not much of a threat...

Why

Enough of this chump and the entrenched parasites.

Remember Obama’s 2008 campaign? Make history, elect the first black president. Those who don’t are racist. Obama ran on his skin color, they voted for him because of the color of his skin, and they call us racist.

So they are only voting based on skin color. What's that called again? 🤔

Two words - Michelle Obama.

That’s racist

I don't care if he picks a rock as his running mate. It would still be better than FatHitler.

So not the most qualified. First quality is skin color. Affirmative action at its finest

Biden needs to pick who he thinks works best with him there are many qualified women I like Mayor Bottoms but Biden should not have a threat of losing if he doesn’t choose a Black women we don’t want to live in trump world so don’t make threatening demands of Biden

Pick and gender and a color because that’s what makes a difference not the content or character of the person.

Isn’t that racist?

The 6 women that he has to choose from are all horrible people. Who cares that they are women, they are scumbags.

He already said he was. And if not they will work for Trump? Geeeeez..... I don't even know what to say.

“100 Racist Black Men” if they are making demands solely on skin color and not qualifications.

Not falling for it! Jorgensen2020 JonotJoe

Of course they did.

Imagine running for president and having your party telling you what your every move should be! Nothing more pathetic!

Wow! 100! That’s amazing, I mean we all need to jump if 100 black men say we should jump. CNN is GARBAGE!

I hate being pressured into anything, this seems out of line.

Yes Obama was such an inspiration by framing general Flynn and spying on american citizens you're best bet is voting realDonaldTrump .

If you think he will lose the election if he doesn't pick a black VP, you're a racist.

So when the person gets the VP nod, wonder if that person will ever think “did I get picked for my abilities, or am I just another female person of color being used by the democrats?”

So is inferring that all black men think the same ... no diversity of thought? Otherwise who gives a rip what a few Dems think?

Yeah the next nobel prize should be given to a black person. And how dare the NASA didn't send a black person to the moon? BLM

You know what you can tell those 100 black men - you can tell them is he doesn't pick a white woman as his vp he will lose the election - but I say and have said - ' it's in the bag - it's Susie Rice picked by the DNC' and it's the 100 th time I've said it --- watch carefully -

100?

Black privilege

These 100 Black men just made JoeBiden vice President selection a lose lose situation. Now, if he selects a Black woman it will seem like his cowering to threats, not his own man. Otherwise, he risks retaliation. The 100 Black men deserve Trump's re-election.

If he chooses Kamala Harris, he’ll win the election. She is like a “female Obama”.

That’s just stupid! As a minority woman I don’t care about the skin color of the woman just as long it is a woman! Do we need to remind people he said he’ll choose a woman not a black, white, brown, orange or whatever color woman. We must stand together and just vote Trump out!🙄

Quid pro quo 2.0. Head or tail joe Biden will lose and that’s a fact you can take to the bank.

The Left Puppet is a corpse BrainDeadBiden

God forbid he simply choose who’s most qualified

I'm hoping he picks Elizabeth Warren shes my favorite

The 75% will NOT Bow to the 25%

Because race is the most important thing to racist!

duh----it is the right thing---get this T outa there

It’s an empty position anyway. Not many people in the White House do less than the VP. Pick whoever gets you elected.

Or else Joe, no votes for you

Identity politics is racist

I'd like to see a black woman too, however threats & bully tactics are what lost Bernie the nomination. His loyal voters did the same thing. It tells more about your character than anything else. You want 4 more years Trump? You continue to get what you deserve Un-American losers

No one piece of Obama's coalition is more important than any other We work together or we all lose Where exactly do these men think anyone will be with another 4 years of Trump? I don't see Asians, Latinos or young voters making this demand. Divisive. A turn off.

By that logic, If he picks ewarren he’ll lose? I don’t think so.

RACIST & SEXIST! Since we already know that the VP will be a black female, can we just call her TOKEN? Seriously, specifying the ethnicity and gender of who must be the VP is RACIST & SEXIST.

I'm more concerned about why it is all men that signed and why it has to be a woman?😂

Go getem Tiger. You see how your administration is really going to work. You are impotent.

Wow a petition with 100 signatures. Big, if true.

Good luck!

Hahahahahah...... The only way to get a racist

They need to shut up and bwt I am very black

Willie Brown picked the right one for the job. He knew exactly how well she performs.

Who cares! We just want college football. If he doesn't pick Warren the left base will stay home.

100.

oh yeah like KanyeWest signatures amirite?!?!?!!
