President Biden, The Constitution and Race

It appears that some White Liberal Democrats just don’t want a Black woman in the orbit of really becoming President and they would rather disgrace and destroy a good man because of a bad debate than take a chance on a Black woman running the White House.

The Democratic Party needs to pause and reflect on the real issue which is race and not an aging President. Once again we see the Kool-Aid of division being swallowed, not by the MAGA Right, but by Democrats who know better and openly profess a love for democracy and the Constitution of the United States. So the question is how can one love the Constitution and at the same time only obey those sections that agree with our way of thinking?

When President Biden wins re-election, his age or any other issue only becomes a problem when there are signs he is unable to fulfill the duties of the Office. The 25th Amendment to the Constitution handles the succession process setting out how the Vice President assumes the Office of the Presidency and how the Office of the Vice Presidency is to be filled. The elephant in the room is Vice President Kamala Harris, who happens to not only be a woman, but also Black.  

This is the same Black woman who was Attorney General of the largest state in the Union. She was an elected U.S. Senator from that same state, which gave us the U.S. Supreme Court Justice Earl Warren and President Ronald Reagan. Since she has been elected by the Democratic Party’s primary process which made Joe Biden the Presidential Candidate, and Harris the Vice Presidential Candidate. Is the real issue the age of a man who in the last four years rescued this nation from the brink of destruction? Is it the Democrats opposing the President staying in the race who have Alzheimer’s and memory loss, rather than the President who remembers what he has done and how he rescued a struggling nation? Is it the Democrats complaining about the President and know that Trump has a better chance at winning against a last minute replacement than running against a President who has already beaten him before? With knowing all these facts, especially the presence of the 25th Amendment, the only card left in the deck is race.

It appears that some White Liberal Democrats just don’t want a Black woman in the orbit of really becoming President and they would rather disgrace and destroy a good man because of a bad debate than take a chance on a Black woman running the White House. 

Let’s not get it twisted. It was a Black Congressman from South Carolina, James Clydburn, who motivated Black America to vote for Joe Biden when it appeared  that he was out of the race for the Presidency. It is the Black Vote that put him in office and it is the Black Vote of the Congressional Black Caucus who, in this race for the White House, is standing in unity with the Democratic leadership of the House of Representatives in a Republican-controlled Congress against whimpering calls from a few democrats for the President to “step aside.

Once again, the clarion call is to stand with the Constitution and not be like the Supreme Court who is now stomping upon all it stands for in an effort to protect and insulate the very convicted felon that we, the people, would keep out of the White House. A move to oust President Biden would surely guarantee an election victory for Trump.
