Republicans Use 170yr-Old SLAVE Court Ruling to Disqualify Kamala Harris
Republicans Resurrect Old Racist Ruling to Disqualify Kamala Harris -Cites Notorious Dred Scott Ruling as Reason Kamala Harris Cant Be President
Republican Group Says Kamala Can't Be President Because This 170-Year-Old Supreme Court Decision Likens Her to a Slave
The National Federation of Republican Assemblies are attempting a gross and racist stunt.
MSNRAW 3 SEP 2024
CUCKOO....
Trump set the tone in his numerous attempts to disparage Vice President Kamala Harris to keep her from the White House this November. However, his cronies have taken things a wildly racist step further.
Group also challenged right of Vivek Ramaswamy and Nikki Haley to appear on Republican primary ballots
The 90-year-old National Federation of Republican Assemblies (NFRA) cited the 1857 Dred Scott Supreme Court decision to state Harris cannot run for president per the Constitution of the United States, according to The Independent.
A reminder: Dred Scott v. Sanford declared that slaves weren?t U.S. citizens and thus not protected by the federal government; it?s wildly considered one of the most reviled decisions in the history of the Supreme Court.
According to the platform and policy document from the NFRA, the way that the Constitution describes presidential requirements disqualifies Harris entirely. The group also questioned the validity of Nikki Haley and Vivek Ramaswamy running for president based on citizen requirements which state that only ?natural-born citizens? can hold the position.
The documents argued that Harris, Haley and Ramaswamy had parents who ?were not American citizens at the time of their birth.? Problem is, the Dred Scott ruling (which was overturned, by the way) has nothing to do with Harris, Haley or Ramaswamy, and the NFRA cited it for no good reason except to...maybe call Harris a slave...?
The NFRA?s true complaint is its interpretation of ?natural-born citizen? as ?a person born on American soil of parents who are both citizens of the United States at the time of the child?s birth.?
The constitution states that only natural-born citizens can be president, and Harris was born and raised in Oakland, Calif. Under their own reasoning, George Washington, Thomas Jefferson and other Founding Fathers wouldn?t be eligible since they were born of parents from British colonies. So...conversation over.
The tactics of the NFRA serve as justanother excuse to endorse Trump, which the group officially did back in October. In a statement to The Independent, the group?s president Alex Johnson doubled down on his attack on Harris.
?We firmly believe that faux Democrat Ms. Harris should never hold office for any of the many reasons people choose to highlight, including her party?s tactics on dividing people by race and class, which mirror those that have led nations like Venezuela, Cuba, and North Korea into totalitarian regimes,? he stated.
?These policies have historically resulted in widespread suffering, economic collapse, and the erosion of individual freedoms. The Democrat Party preys on the ignorance of voters.?
