Was Joe Biden's choice of running mate racist; did he choose by race?

    What's racist about judging people based on the color of their skin rather than the content of their character?

    It's called demographics.  The same reason that Trump picked Pence - he needed the Evangelicals to back him.   Biden needs women and he needs minorities.   

    Besides,   Harris is a former DA, former AG and current Senator - she certainly has the resume.

    and gender--not on the content of her character.

    Yes, Biden picked Harris because of her race and gender. He's a member of a party that claims to be against discrimination based on race and gender and yet he picked his VP because of her race and gender.
