You’re missing the point. It’s not about the gender or race at all, it’s about the conflicting narratives. You can’t have a strategy to win nominating a black woman if you also really believe that her race and gender handicap her so severely in the election. If you really believe that, and you want to win (which I assume is the goal) you would nominate a white man. You can’t have a party that believes both things. Either racism and misogyny are real obstacles to electing a black woman or they are retroactive justification for loosing. Maybe they are but if that is the case don’t be so stupid as to loose a critical election by nominating a candidate that has lost before the race as started. Because stats speak for themselves. Women are 0-2 against Trump in a presidential election while old white men are 1-0. How dumb do you have to be to run another woman against Trump when you already did that and lost. Either commit to the narrative and nominate candidates that can actually win or stop spinning it and using it as an excuse as to why you loose.
