Why would Biden choose a candidate who only recently stated that she believed those women who accused him of inappropriate touching and what kind of person is Kamala Harris to then become the running mate of a man she believed had sexually assaulted other women? There is a calculated and sleazy reason why Kamala was chosen as Biden's running mate, and much of this has to do with pandering to Hindus.
Making only up 1-2% of the population, most people would think that Hindus are not really a major vote bank, and if scattered across the country they could not make up enough of a constituency in any state in order to change an election. But Hindus are not scattered across the country and in fact they have concentrations in swing-states like Florida and Virginia. That is why in 2016 Trump attended a rally just for Hindus, in the non-swing-state of New Jersey, just to speak to these voters. This is why Trump's daughter-in-law went to a Virginia Hindu temple on Diwali, this is why Trump's son Eric went to a Hindu temple in Florida, because in these states the Hindu vote matters.
Hindus brought Trump Florida and this time they could also bring him Virginia. During the 2016 campaign the Democrats ignored the Hindu community up until the very end when Hillary Clinton's crowd tried a last-ditch effort with "Hindus For Hillary", it didn't even arrive until only weeks or even days before the election, and then only a few nights before there was arranged a puja for Hillary in a Hindu temple, while Pujas had been done for Trump for months beforehand. The Left is generally not interested in Hindus who they are more interested in branding as Hindutva fascists than allies.
But this time the Democratic party has wisened up to the new power of Hindus, including their monetary wealth... Hindus are the wealthiest religious group in the USA. Hindus donated millions to Trump, along with bringing him the vote, and the Democrats want both. Hindus see in Biden's pick of Kamala Harris an attempt to pander to them, both racially and subliminally spiritually.
Kamala Harris is the daughter of a Jamaican Christian and an Indian Hindu mother, even though her Hindu mother had her raised in Baptist Churches. In his latest piece for the Toronto Sun (here), liberal activist Tarek Fatah chastised Kamala's sudden reawakening to her Indian roots when she has built much of her career on being Jamaican, or at least that made up the bulk of her rhetoric... Kamala was not until recently known as the first "Indian-American" woman to run for any sort of office, nor did she take much ink to highlight her Hindu heritage.
But now the Left is very keen to make Kamala look like the first Hindu and Indian-American to ever run for Vice-President... yes Hindus have noticed that this has come all of a sudden... where was Kamala's Hinduness and Indianess when she was running for President... now that she is running as Biden's VP it is everywhere... Hindus are not hallucinating about the sudden change. They have noticed and many are grossed-out.
