Politics, P**********l Campaign
Kamala Harris Has a Terrible Message for American Minorities

by Andrew


In a tweet on Tuesday night, Sen. Kamala Harris said the U.S. is r****d so that women, racial minorities, and even people who happen to live in certain areas are unable to succeed.

“Let’s speak t***h to power,” wrote Harris. “Right now in the United States, access to opportunity depends on your race or g****r or what zip code you are born in. It doesn’t have to be that way. Let’s build an America where everyone has the chance to succeed.”

What a pathetic, disempowering message to send to young women, b****s, Hispanics, and anyone else who doesn’t consider themselves a “privileged” class in America. What makes it worse is that Harris herself is a living testament to how shamefully untrue this message is.

After all, Harris was born to an Indian immigrant mother and a Jamaican father. She is taken for a black woman in most circumstances, and as far as we know, that’s how she self-identifies. She was born in Oakland. If that isn’t a bad “zip code” to be born in, we don’t know what would be. Granted, her parents weren’t welfare l***hes – they had good jobs in science, medicine, and academia. So she had that going for her, but she wasn’t exactly birthed into the lap of privilege, luxury, and instant success. She had to work for it.

And so she did. After her mother moved the children to Canada, Harris graduated high school in Quebec and then headed to Howard University in Washington to get her degree in political science and economics. She was a success at Howard, joining the debate team, becoming a member of the Alpha Kappa Alpha sorority, and getting herself elected to the student council. After obtaining her bachelor’s degree, she went to the University of California to get her doctorate in law. She passed the bar a short time later and embarked on her career as a prosecutor.

That would be enough for many women, but Harris didn’t stop there. She moved into politics, first becoming the district attorney of San Francisco before moving on to become the first African-American woman to be elected the Attorney General of California. Now she’s a U.S. senator running to become the President of the United States.

Imagine if someone had told Harris, way back when, that she couldn’t make a success out of herself in America because the deck was stacked against women, b****s, people from Oakland, or the children of immigrants. What would she have done with her life if she internalized the message that it was hopeless?

If Harris was right – that access to opportunity depends on your race, g****r, etc. – then we wouldn’t have the slightest clue who she was. But if people like her keep preaching that message, it may soon become a self-fulfilling prophecy.

Kamala D.Harris Her dad had this to say of his daughter "Our family wants to dissociate ourselves from this travesty". If that isn't a true democrat I don't know what is. Fits right in with the rest of the evil democrats.

Kamala Harris was Willy Brown's squeeze for many years getting lots of upping's to her career.
She knows how to get ahead very well.

Harris is simply stating the same thing that people of color have been told for decades, you need to be twice as good as the white man to enjoy the same success. This is a message of encouragement, along with recognizing that the odds are stacked against people of color and the poor. The message that you need both to work your ass off and fight tooth and nail for e******y. The reason our nation still drips with r****m is that poor unsk**led and undereducated w****s have been convinced that people of color gaining the rights they enjoy poses them a threat.

MR Mister Loc: Washington DC

That is the message the Democrats have placed of the b****s since 1886 to keep them in a hole so they will v**e for the lying left. Yes, indeed you and your party kept the deck stacked against them. Then to make matters worse you gave them money "welfare" and told them "if your husband lives with you, we will take it away from you." GREAT JOB KEVYN.

Harris is trolling for v**es. Nothing more.

Both you and Harris give very good examples of how the left keeps fueling r****m. By encouraging people to continue to wear their chains the left will garner more v**es. And its all about v**es.

She probably knows how to give ahead just as well.
