Kamala was chosen because of the FEAR.
The fear that, black voters would not turn out in the same numbers that they used to in the past for democrats.
Trump made life easier for blacks (and other minorities, and women). Having jobs and better lives, Trumps getting handouts, which is all that democrats gave to blacks for the last 50+ years. The ‘fee fone’ Obama and slumlords that the democrats had been, is no longer what blacks want or need. A job and a better life, is not something that democrats have ever promised, and now, democrats are running scared that blacks wont automatically vote blindly for them.
So, Kamala is the FEAR candidate that democrats needed to have in order to stop Trump from getting a large number of black (and other minority) voters.
Kamala doesn’t fit the ‘best or better qualified’ nomination; she is simply ‘black’ to Joes handlers. Black is the only qualification they were seeking, and being female is just a bonus.
It’s a Good Thing that the Moose Shell was not interested.
