Thinking about Kamala

 

I follow from afar American politics but it was Steve Sailer's note that revealed to me who is Kamala Harris, probable VicePresident and  subsequently (Biden is 77) possible President. She is a woman whose education and political career was focused on racism that is the legendary victimization of American Blacks. She perceives reality through the lenses of race relations, and it is worrying to put this limited and obsessed person in charge of a world power like the United States. And specially now, when the country finds itself in competition/war with a larger and homogeneous power, like China.

Brown’s decision to appoint Harris raised eyebrows in political circles. “Both boards are reserved for political payback or occasionally for personal rewards for personal service,” said Brett Granlund, a former California Republican state assemblyman who worked closely with the commission while Harris was on the board. “The boards are considered plumb appointments as they require no work, no policy credentials, and are paid the equivalent of a full-time [state] senator for arriving at a one- to two-hour meeting each month.”

Granlund said the appointment seemed brazen at the time because of the relationship between Harris and Brown. “Screwing the speaker has its rewards,” he said. “Stevie Wonder could have seen through that play.”

She is not unattractive.
