I wholeheartedly disagree with this. This was a smart strategy and told Black and brown voters everything they need to know about Warren. It was not a good look for Warren and Harris completely exposed her. You make an excellent point, and that was what I was hoping she was driving at. But, shock of all shocks, white people totally missed her point. As much as I love the PSA guys, their white privilege showed in their words about Kamala’s point on this.

Biden says he will pull a McConnell if a SCOTUS justice steps down in 2020 That did not sit well with me Me either. We need less of that.

The Biden-Warren CFPB exchange was totally bananas. Biden became unglued. And I love how Warren closed the loop by saying that people told her starting CFPB was too pie in the sky, and yet, she got it done and it works.

I adore how she said she appreciated OBAMAS support during the process. She’s not subtle in her shade.

jaygee,I did not realize Warren had been dismissive of the Trump Twitter thing. I thought she got caught off guard and didn't know how to respond. That's upsetting.

I can’t find the video right now but there is one where a reporter asks Warren if T should be banned from Twitter and she laughs and says no. I’ll look for it later.

I see quite frequently how they don't support Kamala at all, but I haven't seen who they do support. I also base this off a small sample size of my black and brown friends from CA who very much do not support Kamala. Like, fire of a thousand suns do not support her. My friends aren't totally pleased with any of the candidates, so that's why I am wondering who the general Black voters outside of my experience are supporting.

From what I have seen, older black voters support Biden and younger black voters are divided among a few candidates. The thing about Kamala is that people love her or absolutely hate her. There's no in between.

But I’m on Twitter a lot and I will say what I observe is: Biden, Harris, and then a smattering. Some Warren, some Bernie. Booker, Castro. And there is a wait and see approach to see what the primaries bring similar to ‘08 with Obama.

I don't spend time on twitter outside of mainly what is linked here (mostly for my sanity) so I appreciate the insight. I am very interested to see where it ends up, as I think that is a hugely important segment of voters that I think from what I gathered, felt very slighted by the Hillary campaign, as well they should have.

I'm actually not surprised that Kamala is friends with Rand Paul. Even though they're polar opposites, politically, I can totally see her inviting him over for homemade pizza night and laughing when he makes a hole in his dough.
