Kamala Harris is the heir apparent. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] thejoker954@lemmy.world 0 points 2 years ago (2 children) Who is a black woman. Which means that unfortunately she has a pretty steep uphill battle to win the presidency. In fact I think it would drive more of the non voting republicans to the polls. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 4 child comments replies: [–] lagomorphlecture@lemm.ee 5 points 2 years ago* (1 child) Honest question, are there that many non voting Republicans? They tend to be pretty rabid. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] thejoker954@lemmy.world 2 points 2 years ago Honestly I don't know, but I assume just like with democrats there is a large poor population that normally cant make it to voting. And with a black women running for president i just see the racists and sexists organizing more to help bring those voters in. permalink fedilink source parent [–] whoreticulture@lemmy.world 3 points 2 years ago Obama won pretty hard though despite the racism, there were more people excited to see a black president than there were racists (although obviously there as a lot of vocal racism as well). If Kamala tells a convincing story, I could see it working well. permalink fedilink source parent
