...issue that could have been brought up and resolved privately. As much as the issue was important to a lot of ppl there are a lot of people that were never in the position of having to address it. I grew up in a small northwestern town. Im the same age as Harris but this issue was not part of my life as we all went to school together no matter what color we were. So some are kind of confounded..scratching their heads..wondering why this particular issue has been used to win a debate/contest/election..whatever...when we should all be directing this at trump.

In the end whoever is the Dem nom will get ALL our votes. 100%!

If I were to vote in a presidential
primary today, I would vote for:
Joe Biden
oddly enough it is mostly Biden supporters who keep kicking this shit back up. Voltaire2 Jul 2019 #1

Well, she's definitely lumping him in with segregationists in her so-called acceptance and signals emmaverybo Jul 2019 #30
Kamala: Well, he said he's sorry. I'm gonna take him at his word, but... Skya Rhen Jul 2019 #15

There will never be... quickesst Jul 2019 #29

I don't recall anybody on DU ever "attacking" Harris until she made those remarks to Biden... Skya Rhen Jul 2019 #46
DUers are mocking Harris, because she, and others, found his words hurtful... SidDithers Jul 2019 #45
You should take your own advice. You should also call out R B Garr Jul 2019 #49
She had t-shirts...a planned attack...hurtful only because it didnt work as she intended. Demsrule86 Jul 2019 #50
A little late for that. nt ucrdem Jul 2019 #53
