But isn't that statement, by definition, about as sexist as you can get? Her support was seemingly entirely predicated on the sex of the candidates. Imagine had she stated she would not endorse anyone until all the POC candidates had dropped out?
Just think a statement like that probably should not be publicly aired.

If I were to vote in a presidential
primary today, I would vote for: Undecided

Exactly StFrancis1 Mar 2020 #13

Classy is a good word for it. If that's the kind of following Harris assembles, then she'd be calimary Mar 2020 #20

Class act. marble falls Mar 2020 #61

Attorney General Harris has a nice ring to it. nt joost5 Mar 2020 #16

I m torn about putting sitting Senators in the administration. We need to take back the Senate alfredo Mar 2020 #18
