Liz Reparation Question

I assume her advisers will at some point go back to taking another shot at New Coke cola given the "brillance" they have shown. But let's say Native Americans do get reparations. What counts? I am at least 1/8 to 1/4 ( still verifying.) Not making light-how does someone make this decision?

By the way what exactly might be the qualifications to work on a presidential campaign? Not drooling?

Why is such an awesome candidate getting such lousy advice?

She deserves better.

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

It’s not a position she would come to with thought.

She’s not wrong, and it’s not a campaign tactic designed for success.

When Bannon says this is going to be a terribly divisive season, that is by design.

And what she deserves is to be quoted accurately.

“I think it’s a part of the conversation,” she said when asked whether they should receive some kind of relief. “I think it’s an important part of the conversation,” she added, according to the Post.

by asking another question. Have you identified as American Indian your whole life living within the tribe? Or have you lived your life with your white European side?

One has been oppressed the other hasn't. Those who are "white people" shouldn't even think of getting reparations.
