    There are still millions of racist white Southern Democrats. Wise choice for Obama to run with Biden. VP Biden appealed to that segment of white voters.

    He's a horrible campaigner. The first two times he was exposed for lying about his college education and for plagiarizing an entire speech almost word for word. In the plagiarized speech, he even claimed that his daddy was a coal miner. His dad owned a car dealership. Media wasn't partisan back then, and exposed him as a liar.

    He was known at Capital Hill with fellow Congressmen as a really nice guy, but dumber than a rock, and he was on the wrong side of history on almost all the legislation he wrote and voted for.

    I guess Alzheimer's is same as "improving with age" to today's voters who mostly know nothing about Joe.

    LOL What white Democrats don't realize is that the majority of African Americans in the U.S. are descendants of slaves, and many of them do care that neither half-black Obama or Kamala "fit" with their own personal and unique lineage. It's not the "blackness" that matters. It the history. Obama and Kamala are elites of recent immigrant heritage, not generational American blacks oppressed by American slavery.

    Obama's "blackness" won him points with African American voters for his first term. By his second term, many were disillusioned and disgruntled with Obama.

    Kamala's appeal is with elite female professionals of all races, and feminists in general.

    She's going to have to reconcile her past. She was a hard a$$ prosecutor who threw a bunch of black men in California jails for minor drug offenses and threw parents in jail for their kids not showing up to school. Since winning her Senate seat, her voting record has been as one of the most Progressive Liberals.

    She did a 180 degree turn around, which makes her a chameleon politician, one who cannot be trusted not to change her positions and ideology depending on "what's good for Kamala's career". She's a total opportunist.

    Her voting record gives her a higher "progressive score" than even Bernie Sanders. She's sandwiched between airhead Hawaiian Mazie Hirono and Pocahontas Elizabeth Warren.

    None of this noise matters. Another four years of Trump is an existential threat to the security of the United States. I'd vote for a crack addled chimpanzee if that's who was leading in the polls against Trump.

    Yup. It is what it is.

    According to Trump, Biden is slipping and Harris is Satan.

    Anybody who doesn't like it, is free not to vote for them.

    According to Trump's "detractors", Trump is an IMBECILE (who traffics in Racism and Misogyny).

    Anybody who doesn't like it is free not to vote for him.

    But, there is one thing that Everybody Agrees On:

    Nothing involving dredging up Ancient History (involving Biden or Harris) is going to move the needle one bit against the Democratic Ticket.

    It doesn't matter how many times it gets Re-Hashed, Re-Posted, or Copypasted.

    It is a Binary Choice, and the Majority of America Wants Trump Out.

    More diversion. Trumpists have the least introspective traits of all political animals. They act like a single cell organism operating on reflexes alone. Not a damn nanosecond of legit introspection of their poor choice that they can correct now.

    So I take it, you’ve voted for Hillary, and she was leading in the polls, was not she?

    Same luck to you this time around, pal, voting with the polls. :handshake:

    The racial discussion was among Democrats. Conservatives, they did not give a hoot if Obama black or half black! :D

    In other words - you Conservatives, you - abandon Trump, and vote for Biden.

    Of course.

    YES

    Others have already woken up to the miserable failure of Trump's ineptitude and renounced their Trump Kool-aid. Rather than think about the reasons your former cultists have abandoned Trump, you double-down.

    And BTW, you don't have to vote for Biden. You can vote for anyone else. Why box yourself into such a tight little hole in Trump's anus?

    That link you posted included a link to a more in-depth article about Obama-Clinton-Biden relationships and how Obama and Clinton really dissed the idea of Biden running in 2016. Biden wasn't book smart or intelligent enough to win, whereas Obama and Clinton were simpatico intelligentsia elites. Once again, it's the "Joe's a good guy and a best friend, but doesn't have the brains," story.

    This article is lengthy, but is sort of like being a fly on the wall and getting the inside-campaign and advisors scoop on relationships and personalities. Worth a read.

    This was NEVER a discussion until Dear Leader brought it up and the cult started repeating it.

    I agreed with you until your last sentence. No one is likely to move voters who have made up their minds. It's Independents in swing states who are flexible, and they have not made up their minds yet.

    It's Trump's game to lose to Trump, or it's Biden's game to lose to Biden. Each candidate is his own worst enemy.

    My idealistic friend,

    I'll take your pleas more seriously if you' point to one, just one PF member who' voted for Trump in 2016 and "have woken up".

    Please? :hug:

    Indeed.

    But it still begs a question of why Obama picked Biden for the running mate if he admits he was not of high opinion of Biden's intelligence even then. Just a loyal lapdog is all Obama needed?

    What you posted is the actual meaningless noise. Trump being an "existential threat " is propaganda churned out by globalists and commies. They have to somehow convince voters to vote against their own interests and so far they have convinced a large number to do so.

    You should see the list of slaves her family owned-its over 200 names. First names only.

    And here is Kamala and her family...
