You have consistently misread my posts.
At no point, have I suggested that the comments here have racial undertones. They do not.
Rather, I pointed out that within a day of announcing her candidacy Harris was attacked by rightwing birthers. I hoped to steer the discussion away from dancing (i.e. marketing strategy) towards policy.
Thank you for gently pointing out a spelling mistake I made in one of the three languages I speak. Learning English is so much more fun this way

You’re comparing entirely legitimate criticism of KH to birthism. How is that not suggesting that we have racist undertones? You are consistently conflating things that neither I nor @knoxblox said about the dancing video to us. WE ARE talking about policy. You are saying that WE are not.
I can’t make that any clearer than I have.

One of the biggest long term risks, against Trump, is splitting the resistance against itself. And I have no idea what one does about that.
I don’t love Kamala Harris, not just for her past as an attorney general, but also because she hasn’t, to the best of my knowledge, addressed any of her past decisions. As a senator it seems like she’s been pretty okay?
Anyway, I don’t know what the solution to splitting the resistance is, but I don’t think it’s an automatic “any criticism of any Dem candidate must be suppressed”. Especially if you’re going to be a jerk about it.

fwiw, Lily Adams [ETA: The person Harris just hired as her comms director] was Clinton’s communications director specifically for Iowa. Jennifer Palmieri was her comms director for the campaign. I have no reason to believe Lily Adams was responsible for “Pokemon Go to the Polls” [ETA: so I don’t know that it’s fair to pin any unhipness on this one specific Harris staffer, as was implied in the comment to which I am replying]

Despite what you might think from the most vocal elements, the majority of Democratic voters are more moderate than progressive. But I certainly hope that every shade of blue can agree that a change is needed in the White House.

Now that we’ve gotten our aggressions out, I want to say this:
President Kamala Harris.
President.
Kamala.
Harris.
It has a nice ring.
