So the media is making something out of nothing. Never mind the POTUS threatened to kill the Speaker of the House. Trump, rightly, questioned what race Kamala is claiming this week:

Trump questions whether Harris is 'Black' at conference of Black journalists

She claimed she was Indian:

California's Kamala Harris becomes first Indian-American US senator

Then she claimed she was black:

Eight years after Trump beat Hillary Clinton, Harris could be the first female president and the first Black woman to hold the nation’s top job, as well.

But dont forget about being South Asian too:

The Lesser-Known Side of Harris’s Identity: Asian American

So what is she? She's mixed. And the only people that really care are the people that want to use her skin color as a qualification rather than an identifying trait.

So she looks like she has a nice tan. So? What are her policies? That's what disqualifies her.

NOTHING ^HERE says Kamala claims to be black. Duh

That's why you're supposed to QUOTE your EVIDENCE instead of NAKED LINKS. Your credibility is further DESTROYED.

You and reality really are unaquainted, aren't you?

Kamala Harris attended and graduated from historically black Howard University. So she’s “identified” as being black since at least age 18.

She can be black and Indian, and female.  Being one does not mean she is not the other.  Kamala was the first black AG of California, and the first Indian AG of California. Jerry Brown’s sister was the first female AG of California. 

You and Trump are racists.

Really her skin colour (and gender) isn't and shouldn't be an issue, though it's played a large role in getting her all the way to the point of presidential candidate for the Democrats without having to win one single primary.

The bigger issue is exactly that - why she could never win a primary if forced to follow the US "democratic" system - she's unlikeable, her policies are trash, and she's been a terrible VP.

Yes she did play a major role in that debacle.  Which is why the withdrawal sucked so bad.

She's also a part time crane driver and often assumes the role of court jester.

Another load of your MAGA bullshit, trying to apologize for your cult leader’s latest racist lies.  For her entire public life Kamala has always been open that she half black and half Indian. India is the largest part of South Asia.  She attended a historically Black College,  was a member of a Black sorority,  and as a Senator she was a member of the Congressional Black Caucus, in addition to a career full of having to explain her ethnicity to everyone she meets the way all people of colour are expected to. Trump’s lie that she only recently started identifying as Black is just another racist attack.

Right, because saying race shouldn't be a qualification is racist?

Uh huh. So is it racist to say your skin color qualifies you for a job?

What I always find weird is how black people constantly tell us that it is racism that holds them back but whenever anyone is mixed race with one being black they claim to be black. I have yet to see a mixed race person claim to be white they always claim to be the race that isn't white.

Nobody says that   I know your religion has long claimed otherwise but you would be the last person on earth to know the reality.

Lies.  You would have us believe white republicans were falling over themselves to describe half-white Obama as white but he stubbornly insisted on being called black?
 

A person who looks black is always treated as black by white people. In fact that’s been the case since the days of slavery and the “one drop” rule stipulating that one drop of black blood makes a person Black.  Do you think if the KKK came across someone in the middle of the night they would do genealogy test to determine if they might only be half black before they lynched them, and if so would let them go?
 

Furthermore Kamala has clearly said her entire public that she’s half black and half Indian  so again your made up BS is easily disproven

nailed it - she hasn't accomplished much if anything in any of those roles.  BTW - a glass of water could win an election running as a Democrat in San Francisco.  Those aren't my words, those are Nancy Pelosi's.  She was a terrible Attorney General and an awful VP.  

Here's Tulsi Gabbard destroying Kamala's hopes/chances of ever being a democratically elected leader of the Democratic Party, or even winning one primary.  I really wish Trump had picked Gabbard as his VP.  She'd have been amazing.

In fairness in frisco she ran against... .another democrat :) 

 But the guy was a no name and she had the endorsement of her bang-me boss to push her over the top.  

And it's not like she was elected to vp or did anything while she was there.

Classy, as always. Trump is not a smart man. Does he really think challenging Harris' blackness is a winning play? Didn't work with Obama, won't with with Harris. 

Stupid white men might eat this stuff up, but for everyone else it's a massive turn off.

LOL only a conservative could ask that with a straight face “If I don’t what ‘race’ you are how will I know how to treat you?”

 

How about when you meet someone who appears Black you start by considering them to be a human being whose  experience in life possibly includes anti-black racism directed against them and their family regardless of how they identify. Once you get to know that particular person and how their life experiences have affected their worldview adjust your opinion of that individual accordingly, rather than simply expecting them to conform to YOUR views as white person who has never had to experience racism.

You were the one who brought it up kiddo ;) 

You said that it's wrong to treat someone who looks black like they were black.  So.... what colour should you treat them if YOU - not me but YOU  - feel that treating a person who looks black as if they were black 

 I assume you weren't talking about justin trudeau :) 

Or did you realize you "painted yourself" into a bit of a corner :)

Not quite. In response to an idi0tic post claiming that all half black people insist on identifying as black,(and implying that is somehow wrong): 

I pointed out the obvious fact that people who are half black are treated as black based on their appearance regardless of whether they prefer to identify that way or not. So it is others who are forcing the black identity on them.

I already explained that. I don’t treat people according to the their appearance and neither should you.
