Martin Luther King hated American race related politics right down to the bone. One of the evils he visualized in the political life of this country was selection of a candidate on the basis of race, and probably sex as well.. To elect a candidate because of the color of his or her skin was essentially not only backward thinking , but also corrupt.
He was strongly behind backing candidates because of their leadership potential and political and personal values, regardless of race or sex.
Maybe Sleepy Joe's mind can no longer retain the memories of Dr. King.

Harris looks to have been down the list a ways. 3rd option or lower. Got the call specifically because of her race, or half her race. So he didn't even pick the best person in his own mind and it should be insulting to Harris the only reason she got it was skin color. if it was truly who Biden thought was teh best candidate it would have been Whitmer from Michigan. But she is white and can't have that. That party is a f-ing wreck.

Harris was always at/near the top of the list of potential candidates with most betting lines reflecting this months ago.
 
You are right aginaf. Dr king would be disgusted.
But those Left of Center twinks are convincing people that they stand behind Dr. King's strong feelings about what racial equality should look like in these States United, when in fact, they are race based politicians right down to the core.

So you’re assuming she isn’t the most qualified because she’s a woman and a minority. Wonder what Dr King would think of your views.

Can you look at the other choices and say she was most qualified race aside? A one term senator.

And California attorney general.

But besides qualifications, maybe Biden felt she held some of the same visions he did. Maybe he felt they would work together well. It’s not always about pure credentials.

Was Pence the most qualified VP candidate? I respect Trump bc he picked someone he had no history with instead of some long time friend bc for whatever his reasons were, he thought he was best for the job.

Assuming Biden’s pick was only because of race or gender is, well, exactly what you just accused him of.

Umm. He said that was going to be the only qualification from the very beginning. He said he was going to pick a black woman as his VP pick so yes. By Biden’s admission that was the only prequalification. Otherwise stated there would be no other choice for his VP running mate than a black woman

Want to compare Pence's resume to Harris'? Pence was a Senator and a Governor. You can make the case he was the best. with her you really can't.

Pro law DA in a party that doesn't respect that anymore and to the point where she was tyranical.
Arresting parents for truant children. some being single mothers
Pot arrests and jail convictions
Failing to admit DNA evidence to try and possible clear a wrongfully convicted man.
Less than 2% in polls when she exited for lack of support and money
Didn't even make it to Iowa
And from California, A state Dems already have

She was wrong on a professional level and a political one for that party.

I 'm not saying that at all. YOU are assuming that.
I'm saying that Biden stated he would pick a Black female for his running mate - no matter what her experience and leadership potential for executive national office might be, or not be.
Dr King would have problems with that prejudicial standard for selection, and so do I. As he stated,our standard for selection ought be the most the most qualified person with the best leadership skills, and if they are little green people, that should not matter.

He said he would pick a woman, not a black woman. You guys made that up, then started believing it. Just like always.

Revisionist history is so popular with you denizens of the Neo Marxist Left, but then that is what your hero, V.I. Lenin stipulated was a precursor in your cadre's march to power.

Biden clearly stated a "Black Female'
Prejudicial thinking from both racial and sexual standpoints.

I assume he didn’t whisper it to you in some
dimly light room while petting a hairless cat, but rather said it in such a way so as it would be reported. If by nobody else, surely Breitbart covered this enormous revelation. But yet you have no link to show it. Because it never happened. You likely read it on AY, and now that’s your truth. And no amount of failed google searches will convince you otherwise because, despite hard right wing media existing, you’ll just say the media won’t cover that (which begs the question, how do you know it?)

He has been pressured to select an African American, but he never said that.

How many different versions of “Biden said he will only select a black running mate” did you type into Google before falling asleep on your keyboard?
Biden rejected Warren because, per DNC, "She did not represent racial diversity'. She might be part Native American and part White, but she wasn't Black. What does that tell you? The Harris selection was based on her color - the racial politics Dr King abhorred.
EOS.

There is nothing anyone can say in a taped recording or live speech that will give Biden a chance and Harris didn’t move the needle. The polls are crap as usual and Biden doesn’t know what he said last week. The media will circle their wagons and try their damndest but Biden will not get it done and Harris is not very like able. Let’s go ahead and get it over with so the left can riot for some other reason

So a quote with no citation and not from Biden is your proof of what Biden actually said?

I’m not sure “evidence” is your strong suit.

How many iterations of the search have you gone through now? Why can’t you just say you were wrong, Biden never said that? People make mistakes man.

How’s the google search coming? Ready to admit this was totally wrong or are you going to die on this hill?

Most people don’t think she’s qualified. A poll last week showed about 55% of Americans don’t think she’s qualified. Just as interesting, another poll showed about 50% of African Americans don’t Like or support her.

"Revisionist history" sounds great coming from you.

Why do white people think they know everything about racism?

He said he would pick a woman. And he did. To state she is not qualified is not being truthful. Trump has Pence, whose qualification seems to be he can sit still and not say anything very,very, well. that, and act like he cares about being a Christian.
 
Biden needs to go live in a nice retirement community and feed pigeons. His senility is getting worse. It is almost elder abuse how they are propping him up. I feel kinda sorry for the guy.
