Kamala's Dad is JAMAICAN AFRICAN and not AFRICAN AMERICAN. Period. Full Stop. End of Story.

Sounds like she qualifies, but I really do not care. I am pretty much of Irish decent. They don't get much whiter. I don't care about the issue, simply because I was raised right. Many were not.
No use for hyphenated Americans--you're either American or you're not. The founders didn't differentiate by ancestry in the founding documents. This is just another divisive issue that is tearing the country apart.
 
You ae silly if you think your twist to matters and politics counts for anything, you are wrong. Remember, you are MAGA, and 60% of America hates it and Trump. All Harris has to do is run an honest campaign, and that is what she did in that speech tonight.
LMAO Unburdened by the burdens of the passage of time because burdens that we must unburden ourselves of are all in times passed, eh, word salad. Run along. Glad you finally came out as the racist bigot you are.
 
At least we're trying to educate Democrat voters. Otherwise they'd stupidly go on believing Harris is really a black person, which seems to be the main reason they want to vote for her. It sure as hell isn't her qualifications or accomplishments.
I don't think you're qualified to attempt to teach anyone anything on this particular subject since you seem to be woefully unaware of what white America defines as a "Black person" or person of African descent:

One-drop rule​

The one-drop rule was a legal principle of racial classification that was prominent in the 20th-century United States. It asserted that any person with even one ancestor of black ancestry ("one drop" of "black blood")[1][2] is considered black (Negro or colored in historical terms). It is an example of hypodescent, the automatic assignment of children of a mixed union between different socioeconomic or ethnic groups to the group with the lower status, regardless of proportion of ancestry in different groups.[3]

This concept became codified into the law of some U.S. states in the early 20th century.[4] It was associated with the principle of "invisible blackness"[5] that developed after the long history of racial interaction in the South, which had included the hardening of slavery as a racial caste system and later segregation. Before the rule was outlawed by the Supreme Court in the Loving v. Virginia decision of 1967, it was used to prevent interracial marriages and in general to deny rights and equal opportunities and uphold white supremacy.

Antebellum conditions​

Before the American Civil War, free individuals of mixed race (free people of color) were considered legally white if they had less than either one-eighth or one-quarter African ancestry (only in Virginia).[6] Many mixed-race people were absorbed into the majority culture based simply on appearance, associations and carrying out community responsibilities. These and community acceptance were the more important factors if a person's racial status were questioned, not their documented ancestry.

Based on late 20th-century DNA analysis and a preponderance of historical evidence, US president Thomas Jefferson is widely believed to have fathered the six mixed-race children with his slave Sally Hemings, who was herself three-quarters white and a paternal half-sister of his wife Martha Wayles Jefferson.[quote 1] Four of them survived to adulthood.[7] Under Virginia law of the time, while their seven-eighths European ancestry would have made them legally white if they'd been free, being born to an enslaved mother made them automatically enslaved from birth. Jefferson allowed the two oldest to escape in 1822 (freeing them legally was a public action he elected to avoid because he would have had to gain permission from the state legislature); the two youngest he freed in his 1826 will. Three of the four entered white society as adults. Subsequently, their descendants identified as white.

Although racial segregation was adopted legally by southern states of the former Confederacy in the late 19th century, legislators resisted defining race by law as part of preventing interracial marriages. In 1895, in South Carolina during discussion, George D. Tillman said,

It is a scientific fact that there is not one full-blooded Caucasian on the floor of this convention. Every member has in him a certain mixture of ... colored blood ... It would be a cruel injustice and the source of endless litigation, of scandal, horror, feud, and bloodshed to undertake to annul or forbid marriage for a remote, perhaps obsolete trace of Negro blood. The doors would be open to scandal, malice, and greed.[8]
The one-drop rule was not formally codified as law until the 20th century, from 1910 in Tennessee to 1930 as one of Virginia's "racial integrity laws", with similar laws in several other states in between.

Not for you to decide what racial minorities wish to call themselves. It is often better than what they sometimes call each other.

It is never an issue until election time when the democrats do their divide and conquer thing. Male/female, straight/LGBTQ+, race, party, etc. A house divided cannot stand. I guess, as in 1861, the democrats want to divide us again before disingenuously claiming they want to unite the country. Nice try.
 
All of this bull shit about Kamala being the first "African American Presidential Candidate" is just that. BULL SHIT. Look it up yourself, Donald Harris was born and grew up and graduated high school in JAMAICA. Push back against the gaslighting. Kamala is trying to trick millions of people into voting for her because she is African American. She's about as African American as Donald Trump.

It kind of sounds like they are fairly united. They are united behind Harris and against Trump, that is. Maybe you should join the majority and get out of the cult life.
 
Why keep on saying she is black when she is not?

Why?

I don't understand!:dunno:

She is a woman of color, and people of color, I don't think, will be interested in counter arguments from whites as to what constitutes 'color.'
 
But she is unburdened by the things that might have been a burden if she had not been unburdened by the things that were a burden, er a Biden.

Look who has been watching too much Hannity lately.
Concerned American is loving himself some Hannity.

Then let's see Harris' 23AndMe results.

Oh fuckit, who really cares? I don't give a shit is she's purple or green. Kamala Harris is still the most unqualified nitwit of a presidential candidate this country has ever seen. She's a full-blown Marxist who's farther to the left than Barack Obama. If you think this country is in deep shit now, just wait until after a year of her being in the White House.

Of course, you and I know that will never, ever happen.
