It doesn't really matter to me, Dive. Just clarifying

Call her what you want/

Why are you clarifying something which doesn't matter to you?

Seems rather pointless.

Good choice. Pence had better bring his "A" game if he debates her.

This (VP debate) might be one for the ages. Assuming we have one.

I'm not putting any labels on them The mother is known to be Indian.
I think the father is "mixed" but I don't know.

In any event, if she is clearly 50% Indian, why don't they refer to her as "Indian American"?

You know why and so do I. cultural appropriation.

"I think the father is "mixed" but I don't know."

The father is part Irish.

Stop living in the past.

Congrats to the leftist moderators catering to liberals hurt feelings.
Y’all killed the debate forum!

You may believe, but I know... that she's American.

Racial tagging is a tired weapon of division.
Stay parasitically attached to your 1950's comfort teat if you like.

But we're moving on.

So picking someone based on race, which they did, is moving on? 🤔

Your mind reading skills are impressive, but Harris was probably the best qualified candidate for VP, having executive and legislative experience. She's also fairly young for a VP, which was surely a consideration given Biden's age.

They announced they would pick a woman of colour regardless of abilities or success as a politician long ago.
She may be good or bad but it doesn’t change the fact they focused on women of colour as their main concern.
(To pander the black vote, obviously)

Sometimes the grass is not greener on the other side.
The debate forum used to be fun.
You reek of denial just like No1

No they didn't make any such announcement. https://www.cnn.com/2020/03/15/politics/joe-biden-woman-vice-president/index.html

Most of the women mentioned as possible VP choices at the time weren't "of color".

I see.

The original inhabitants of Jamaica were the indigenous Taíno, an Arawak-speaking
people who began arriving on Hispaniola by canoe from the Belize and the
Yucatan peninsula sometime before 2000 BCE.

Psssst: her mother is Indian, 100%. Don't forget her.

They were pretty much replaced with African slaves by the British but there is probably a genetic and cultural heritage remaining in the present day Caribbean. I believe the Caribbean gets its name from these indigenous people.

“ Psssst: her mother is Indian, 100%. Don't forget her.”
I didn’t forget that earl, that’s why I mentioned it.
