Press Statement Black Lives Matter Selection of Kamala Harris |
Oh this is precious.
Subverting the Democrat process is hypocritical of the Democrat Party elites says Black Lives Matter.
While Joe Biden wasn’t our preferred candidate, we cannot ignore the troubling actions of the Democratic Party:
🔺The DNC refused to host debates during the primary, even though a vast majority of Democratic voters wanted them. This would have likely allowed America to see the decline of Joe Biden in 2023.
🔺The DNC changed the primary schedule and created rules that made it almost impossible for non-Biden candidates to appear on the ballot, effectively clearing the field of any challengers to the incumbent president.
🔺Following the primary where millions of Black voters weighed in, after one poor debate performance, the DNC Party elites and billionaire donors bullied Joe Biden out of the race.
Let us be clear: This is about the Democratic Party following a process that protects the legitimacy of any future Democratic president following this unprecedented moment. Installing Kamala Harris as the Democratic nominee and an unknown vice president without any public voting process would make the modern Democratic Party a party of hypocrites. It would undermine their credibility on issues related to democracy. Imagine our first Black woman president not having won some sort of public nomination process. blacklivesmatter.com/black-lives-ma…
