If you ask me, I’m upset no one picked up that this consideration was sexist and racist, although it is indeed the best choice for her to win, which reflects how bad US can’t get over race and gender.

      Yes, he was the first orange person to be hired as president. He was hired despite Hillary getting more votes because he was the DEI candidate.

      This meme is so inaccurate. Everyone knows he can’t say Kamala. Isn’t it weird people think you should elect someone who can’t even pronounce someone’s name?

          I’ve noticed that too. It was the same with “Hillary.”

          Using the last name is a sign of respect that they don’t think women deserve.

              I was having this conversation the other day. Pelosi came up as a counterexample.

              Now I’m not sure where the line is between subtle disrespect and simply using the more distinctive part of a candidate’s name.

          “Kamala” is hard to pronounce, yet they never had a problem with “Barack Hussein Obama pause for the scary middle-eastern/Islamic-sounding name to sink into racist audience”

          And I love when Palin got called out directly for that and she backpedaled so hard, trying to make it sound like they always do that with everyone and started rattling off republican full names like that made a single bit of difference…

          Can we get a truth-o-meter to scrutinize all candidates during debates like they do in futurama?
