Obama's elections showed that racists will vote for a Black man if they think it will help their pocketbooks. Many Americans don't have a lot of respect for the government (rugged individualists don't need government), so they don't really care if the person is "qualified" in the sense that matters to those of us who understand what the position requires. That's why they don't care that Trump is a fool - as long as he lowers taxes and eliminates gubmint regulation, they're cool with that.

Likewise, I think Americans would vote for a woman, including a woman of color, but only if they felt confident that she would help their pocketbooks.

Their big fear is that liberals (whom they've been taught to think are weak fools) will "destroy" America with "woke" stuff that weakens us. Clearly, many Americans feared that Harris would do that. Her gender and ethnicity were already suspect, and the GOP ads of her defending trans rights were the last straw. Facts didn't matter. The news media (and probably Biden himself) did a poor job informing Americans of what was actually happening. All they saw were higher prices and "woke" multicultural talk from the Democrats. "We're stronger together" doesn't resonate with racists who believe in the rugged individualist myth.

Our first female president will probably be a Republican whose policies are worse than Trump's.
