Beware the People Who Claim “America Isn’t Ready for a Black Woman President”

Julian Zelizer : Kamala Harris is the embodiment of what America is against a white supremacist former president.

He says the contrast between Harris and convicted felon Donald Trump could not be more clear.

The New York Times has already started down the road of making her seem unelectable because of her race and gender, Zelizer says.

LZ Granderson: Kamala Harris has been subjected to the worst press coverage of any vice president in his lifetime.

LZ: It's not enough for white men to be in control of all the levers of power; they also have to make everybody else feel like they don't deserve power and won't be able to have any even if they try.

He says the white guys who are determined to keep running this joint need the rest of us to believe that asking for equal opportunity and a fair shake is asking for too much and that demanding equality now is perpetually too soon.
