I'm not american, but I have a feeling this election is going to go into history.
Vote for Trump and he'll turn it into dictatorship.
Vote for Harris and she'll be the first woman president.
What will it be?
Buttery mails 2: electric bugaloo
RN is the time to do something cool so your name gets on the history test
I hope if Harris gets into office she will be more than just a token granted by the DNC to appease minority voters. We already saw Obama being a mediocre at best internally, and internationally brutal war criminal, president. Him being black did not make him a good president. And for Hillary Clinton the "she's a women" trope failed catastrophically and brought us Trump in the first place.
Harris needs to convince with policy and character, not with race or gender.
EDIT: I did not mean that Harris would only convince with ther background. It is important to move past the tokenism approach that the DNC used to take.
She's winning with policy and character so far.
So far, I don't feel like she's appeasing to minorities.
It's more about replacing Biden and going against Trump.
Not just the first woman president, but the first female mixed race president and the first to snap back when attacked in a long time. Trump is scared. He just went from saying "you don't need to vote because we have plenty of votes" to "please vote so we can put an to end voting"
Edited to say first female mixed race since Obama was first mixed race
First Asian President
First South Asian President lol
Obama was the first mixed race President.
TIL. I was just leaving highschool when Obama was elected so I don't know as much about him.
