Mark says---- "My thoughts are conservatives saw her debate performance and they were impressed. They know Trump will be cut to shreds if he has to face her in a debate" --- Now that is one of the most absurd, ignorant things that Mark has ever posted.
I never have, and I will never consider a politicians skin color while voting. I wish that Mark was willing to follow the same policy.
Boiler, It is conservatives that are making an issue of her skin color. While I find it interesting you say skin color is never an issue, you do get that claiming a candidate that has black skin isn't a citizen without any sort of proof is and of itself racist? I note probably 100% of conservatives here at the LVA held the belief that Obama was born in Kenya. Now you have conservatives claiming Harris isn't black and some are going so far as to question her citizenship.
I think it is very convenient for conservatives to claim that skin color isn't an issue, but then they eliminate the black candidate from consideration because they hold an irrational racist belief that the black candidates are not Americans because they were secretly born someplace else. Then they say, "See I am not racist. I just can't consider a candidate that is not American."

Mark's estimate is too high.
__Mark is correct that poor old DonDiego cannot "consider a candidate [who] is not American."
Per Article Two, Section 1 of the United States Constitution: "No Person except a natural born Citizen, or a Citizen of the United States, at the time of the Adoption of this Constitution, shall be eligible to the Office of President; neither shall any person be eligible to that Office who shall not have attained to the Age of thirty five Years, and been fourteen Years a Resident within the United States."
. . . Ms. Harris was born in Oakland, CA to a Tamil Indian mother and a Jamaican father, each of whom had emigrated to the United States several years earlier.
. . . Ms.Harris was born in 1964.
. . . So far as DonDiego knows she has been a resident for more than 14 years.
DonDiego can consider Ms. Harris a candidate.
The only person in this thread who has questioned her citizenship is Mark.
The same retard who met with Russians in the last campaign is now fueling another racist conspiracy theory - like the one his retarded father used to rabble up the David Duke wing of the Republican party.
I dont have a problem with it.
Trump has concluded his racist, white nationalism is what got him elected so he's doubling down on it. He's not doing much on helping rust belt states rebuild their economy and secure their healthcare which is the real reason he won. So have at it. Remind people why America is better when it embraces diversity instead of inbreeders in white sheets.
I'll repeat that I have not and will never consider skin color when voting. Marks gibberish doesn't change the truth. Nowaday, any disagreement in thought with Liberals gets one tagged a racist, gay phobic, etc..
This racist will be enjoying cocktails with my good friend, Dom, later today. Dom is a black man who was born and spent most of the first 45 years of life in Tanzania Africa. I'm guessing that Mark will twist this friendship into something different than the truth, because that's what he tends to do.
PJ is a classic example of what is wrong with the present day definition of the 1st Amendment.
Real Reasons to for DonDiego to Vote Against Ms. Harris, her positions:
i. Universal Government-Run Health Care - DonDiego likes his health insurance.
ii. Opposes Border Wall; wants to "re-examine" ICE - [i]i.e.[/i] "open borders". DonDiego likes the US borders.
iii. Free tuition at 4-year college for everyone. DonDiego opines "free" means something else to Ms. Harris than it means to poor old DonDiego.
iv. National universal pre-kindergarten for all children. DonDiego opines "proper indoctrination" of the young should be delayed at least until they understand and recognize the word "indoctrination".
v. Transgender people should use the public bathroom of their choice - actually DonDiego doesn't really oppose this; but he recommends one new rule: women who claim manhood must use the stand-up urinal if all they need to do is pee.

Provide one example that shows Trump is a racist. Calling the president a "retard" only exposes how absolutely ignorant and hateful you are.
It was democrats who embraced slavery to the point that a civil war was fought to end it. It was democrats who has had the KKK marching in support of their nationl convention. It was democrats who opposed giving black people the right to vote. It was democrats who opposed, and tried to filibuster the civil rights act.
White liberals are the worst racists in this country today. They believe they know what black people should say, think and do. That's not only arrogant, it is extemely racist. When they see conservative black person, they blow a gasket (like Mark did at the beginning of this thread). They see a black person who has escaped the bondage of the white liberal plantation, and it really pisses them off.
