Very helpful to draw a line from Douglas to Harris

The idea that we would agree completely with any one candidate or party is a pipe dream. We have to closely examine each candidate's policies and personal attributes to determine which is the better candidate. In my opinion, there is no contest in this election. I will be voting for Kamala Harris. I say that as a white upper middle class person who would personally benefit from Trump's economic policies. That isn't the most important factor for me though. When did we stop caring about helping our fellow human beings?

I’m in agreement with Dr. Tisby and Fredrick Douglas. It makes me frown when I see Blacks at Trump rallies wildly cheering and eating up his diatribe. It confuses me when I see Black pastors for Trump and Black businessmen saying their will vote for Trump because they were better off with his economic policies. It baffles reasoning. Thank you Jemar. And Harris, as the sitting VP, is somewhat limited in how aggressively she maps out her foreign policies, as well as her national agenda, she has to meticulously distinguish herself, her policies.
