I have no explanation for this trend, other than Kamala wasn't what people were looking for (seems unlikely because this seems to have been happening before the announcement), or just the "races get tighter as we approach fall" rule. Either way, it's distressing. They need their convention bump.

I dont think Kamala is what people were looking for.
I have a general, probably ignorant, question to ask. Do Americans make a distinction between black americans or African-Americans, many generations in America and recent black immigrants from Africa or the Caribbean. I find this distinction important when talking about civil rights, slavery and reparations.
If so, then does the Kamala Harris count as "black" enough? I know that seems a dumb question but in politics it matters. I mean she is 1st generation born in the US, Indian mother, Jamaican father. She a person born from immigrants, like me, like a lot of others. So is she considered a politically black candidate that will bring out more black voters?
