But I think there is space to examine his record on racial issues and for him to actually discuss those issues, without him immediately invoking Obama and "I"m not a racist" style language. I don't think anyone has said or even implied he is a racist over the last month. — PolitiTweet.org

It’s fairly hard for us to figure out a vp’s exact role in determining an administration’s policies. His votes/bills sponsored offer a more precise sense of his policy views from the past. And his proposals during this campaign are useful in determining how he govern as POTUS. — PolitiTweet.org

There is a diversity of views among African-Americans on basically every issue, and that existed on busing in the 1970's and on school integration efforts today. (Some black parents, like parents of other races, want their kids to attend schools in their neighborhoods.) — PolitiTweet.org

The presidential race is now mirroring what is happening on Capitol Hill to some extent: the center-left (Biden, Pelosi) vs. the left-left (AOC, Omar Sanders, Warren) with many people trying to find a middle course (Beto, Buttigieg, Booker, Harris, most House Democrats.) — PolitiTweet.org

In downplaying the influence of AOC and opposing ideas like Medicare-for-all, free college and decriminalizing border crossings, Biden's CNN interview formalized that he is running as the center-left alternative to Sanders and Warren. https://t.co/XeAO6bL4kE — PolitiTweet.org

I'm younger than Harris, but I also attended schools in higher-income neighborhoods than where my family lived. Louisville had a school integration system created after a court order and vestiges of it remain today. https://t.co/W9kTUNRJA4 — PolitiTweet.org

Finally, I think Harris has been fairly clear on school integration.But I"m confused by her positioning on Medicare-for-all--and it's my job to track these kinds of things.If you have signed the Sanders bill (as she has), you are basically for unwinding employer-based insurance. — PolitiTweet.org

It seems pretty clear to me that Harris was suggesting that Biden was hostile to school integration efforts in the 1970's, not that he is hostile to them today. So I didn't expect her to roll out a national school desegregation plan over the last week. — PolitiTweet.org
