"WASHINGTON – California Sen. Kamala Harris' rivals for the Democratic presidential nomination defended her after criticisms based on her race circulating on social media, which were amplified when Donald Trump Jr. shared one such post with his more 3.6 million followers on Thursday.
Trump Jr. retweeted a post from Ali Alexander – a conservative commentator whose Twitter profile claims to have "exposed Kamala Harris" – that said "Kamala Harris is *not* an American Black. She is half Indian and half Jamaican. I'm so sick of people robbing American Blacks (like myself) of our history. It's disgusting".

Perhaps that is the truth to the race question on Harris? I guess I don't know what the big deal is either way as long as she is honest about it with the public. There obviously is no question if she is African-American, she isn't!
It's easy to get on a public forum and make a loose statement with absolutely no evidence to back it up. That's another thing, besides lying for no reason, that Republicans are good at doing. They make up shyt as they go. Hoping someone is weak minded enough to take it as truth without question. And it's built on blind hate. Another thing many Republicans seem to be driven by. It matters absolutely ZERO her nationality. What does matter, Can she do the job without making us look like we elected an idiotic fool. Like we have in there now.
