| Sen. Kamala Harris dropped a bomb on Biden that's bigger than politics |
| 2019-06-30 |
| [CNN] Most commentators portray Harris' exchange with Biden during the second night of the Democratic debate as a potential game-changer for the Democratic presidential nomination. But Harris dropped a bomb on Biden that's bigger than politics. She exposed a psychological shift in some parts of the black community that's been building for years. The old days of black people putting up with questionable leaders because they felt like they had no other choice may be over. No more talk about trying to understand white people's racism, forgetting the impact of slavery, moving on from the past because "this is a time of healing." Forgiveness may not always be divine; sometimes it leads to something worse. "Look at what forgiveness has gotten us. It gave us Trump," said Wes Jackson, a commentator who said he cheered when he saw Harris confront Biden during the debate. Biden not only misread the room, he misread the time. |

| #4 Your government must be a little more responsive than ours. Or perhaps they're similar after all--was the expansion of immigration wildly popular? |

| #3 The leftist seem to forget that forced busing was hugely unpopular, and it still would be. If the German government forced kids from affluent or just plain middle class neighborhoods to be bused into slum districts with decrepit schools, that government wouldn't last a week. |

| #1 First, it's CNN. Second, forgiveness is not unique to blacks. Whites often forgive those who wrong them as well. Third, IMO Kamala Harris is an opportunist who will do anything to advance her personal cause. She sensed opportunity and she struck Biden by playing the race card. As it is, it looks like she lied about some of what she put out such as busing and Berkeley elementary being segregated at the time she went there. She is another Hillary Clinton. |
