Obama Acknowledges Kamala Harris's Tight Struggle with Black Male Voters

Oct 11, 2024, 05:40 PM

Former President Barack Obama has publicly acknowledged that Kamala Harris is struggling to gain support from Black male voters. Obama noted the lack of enthusiasm and turnout among Black men compared to his own presidential campaigns. He urged Black voters to support Harris, admitting that her campaign lacks the energy seen during his runs for office and that the election will be tight. The Democratic National Committee has enlisted Obama to address this issue, but his remarks have drawn criticism, with some accusing him of scolding and shaming Black men into supporting Harris. Additionally, Harris's latest political ad, aimed at appealing to male voters, has been widely criticized as ineffective and cringeworthy.
