She seems like a generic, boiler-plate California Democrat. Is this just like Keith Ellison where she hasn't really done anything, but happens to check a bunch of religious and/or ethnic boxes in the minds of the whacktivist crowd or are there some sort of meaningful accomplishments/qualifications she has that I'm missing?
I think that the identity politics focus of the party is really regrettable, but then when you say stuff like this it just proves that it's at least somewhat necessary.
Keith Ellison has done more than "check boxes," and that kind of rhetoric isn't really appropriate--especially from a Democrat.
If you want the ID politics to end as much as I do, don't say dumb things like this, and then nobody will feel the need to go on tirades about race in the first place.

As for Kamala, I actually think that she might not be as strong with AAs as people think she is, given her kind of SF-elite demeanor and the fact that she has got to have a couple of skeletons in the closet (at least from an oppo POV) from her time as SF DA.
She might be a great VP candidate, but I'm not sure if she is ready for primetime yet.
