Hopefully she picks a great VP, slays the DNC, and has an insanely good debate against Trump. It feels like the Kamalanomenon will turn into a Kamala mirage as we approach November and realize that the Biden/Harris record still has plenty of critics. Kamala herself has never been a nationally popular figure and her track record will probably put off many Democrats and left-leaning Independents as we get closer. Let's also remember that many straight white men won't vote for a woman. 1 1

But you also have no stakes and are telling people, who actually live in the country and participate in the political sphere, stuff about their own political atmosphere that is not completely accurate. We do say the same things in other threads as well (i.e American should take a back seat to mexican and european politics because we arent there and we also receive biased news vs someone living in the actual country.) Hell i'm well versed in Mexican politics and i dont act like a know it all because i don't live there currently. But cant wait to be back in jalisco for christmas! 🎄 1

I wanted people to know I didn't have a horse in the race, but that allowed me to look at things differently, less driven by irrational fear most people in this thread are. It doesn't mean that I'm not knowledgeable about American politics. I've been interested in American politics for over a decade, I read the same publications you read, I watch the same channels you watch, and I'm perfectly capable of coming to my own conclusions. The fact that my nationality is being weaponized against me to dismiss my opinions is pretty disgusting.

cloudbusting Posted July 23 Posted July 23 There are other contributors to this thread from outside the USA who don't get this same reaction, so the "xenophobia!!!" victimization is not going to work. Maybe don't echo far right talking points and willingly misinterpret/misrepresent polling data and people will stop tugging on your wig 3 1 1
bunnyeyes Posted July 23 Posted July 23 (edited) @NausAllien those congratulations they send out are routine whenever a non-right candidate wins, same format for all so it doesn't always take into account all intricacies. they also usually endorse whoever they think is going to win rather than the most LGBTQ friendly candidate. Anyways, RE: Shapiro. From what I remember basically they allegedly tricked activists into participating in an endorsement event where Josh Shapiro and his running mate Austin Davis were "endorsed" by LGBTQ activists but then it came out the activists felt misled into supporting Davis over openly gay State Rep. Brian Sims, who was also running for lieutenant governor. They were told the event was to discuss lgbtq protections but it was actually an endorsement event. Then Sims accused Shapiro of trying to push him out of the race and Shapiro's camp faced criticism for allegedly pressuring endorsements. Shapiro's campaign manager allegedly also called some of the activists before the event as well and after the call they believed that Sims had dropped out so they were moving on with Shapiro's pick, but that wasn't true. Also, during the endorsement event, concerns were raised about Shapiro potentially influencing Davis to join the LGBTQ Equality Caucus during the election campaign after not being in it ever just before the election was over in an attempt to appeal to LGBTQ voters but some felt it was an opportunistic and insincere gesture. It was especially gross because Davis, Shapiro's running mate, was criticized for not protecting transgender inmates while serving on the Allegheny County Jail Oversight Board so he pushed a real ally out. https://www.inquirer.com/politics/clout/josh-shapiro-austin-david-brian-sims-20220310.html Edited July 23 by bunnyeyes 2

I still think picking him makes the most sense if the goal is to win. if it's not then anyone else will do 💀 I don't know if I believe that. The demographic Harris really needs is young voters and some of those same voters in PA had the police called on them for peacefully protesting by the governor. Also the whole fetterman mogging him electorally. I hope it's Kelly or Beshear.
