I disagree with you about the level of importance you attributing to South Carolina in the Democratic presidential nomination process.
I will agree that HCBUs such as Howard are excited to see a HCBU (Howard) alumni on the nomination path to the presidency. Some of the students/alumni at HCBUs in North Carolina have commented on this.
The South Carolina thing is more inside baseball for democrats and my post was full of typos.
What I was saying is South Carolina is traditionally the third state in the primaries, the first two are not very diverse. South Carolina has a large proportion of African American women voters. And African American women have an outsized influence on democrat nominees.
I know this will bring up Bernie Sanders trolling and all the dnc stuff that comes with it but I knew Clinton had the nomination after she won South Carolina because she won the black female vote.
And it’s HBCU historically black colleges and universities.
The sororities in HBCUs are for life. Once you’re AKA your always AKA. It’s some very serious stuff to be from an HBCU and in a sorority. This will give Harris a substantial advantage from the gate. Where she goes, I don’t know.
