For the ones dissing Harris for "planning" her attack on Biden:

[CharleyDog]

39. Joe spoke of segregationists with some awe and respect. He talked about them

as if they deserved some respect, and he started this subject.
Yes, her challenge was planned, she wanted to tell him what that meant to her, as a person.

Kamala began her segment telling him how that hurt, and said, "as a POC, I was affected." Then she told how she was personally affected.

There are several articles out today about the conditions in Berkeley and the segregated schools in the 1950s-60s. Children of color did not do well in school, the schools were not equal. Kamala told how this affected her life, how she was able to go to a good school.

Biden's attitude then, was wrong. It was on the wrong side of history, the wrong side of American values. He was caught unprepared and he lied about his point of view.

So, I'm not against Biden, but there's going to be uncomfortable issues, and Biden could do better. "I was wrong," he could say. "Treating POC that way is wrong, segregation is wrong." Instead he lied about his position, and he blustered instead of sharing a human moment with Kamala which would have been very powerful for both.
