Donald Harris, Kamaleon Harris' part-Black! Dad is from Jamaica. As one of the elites, he was not your typical Reggae Rasta-man that we tend to think of when anyone mentions Jamaica, mon, or plays bass guitar and skips a beat each time around. In fact, I read that Dr. Harris was extremely irked when his daughter recently had fun with her background, cackling "of course" to the question of any pot smoking in her past, as after all... you know.
However, I'd bet money that Stanford Economics Professor Harris, by way of London ('60), Berkeley ('66), Urbana-Champaign ('67), Northwestern ('68), smoked his share of the gangja. Need proof? Here:
Who's the little one? Oh, that one has become an American Presidential candidate some way or another ... He also looks the very part of a 1960s university Communist. (That picture has to have been from '64 or '65.) Let's see, proof on the Communist thing, well, look, when we're talking Berzerkely and Madison, I mean, come on! As further evidence, I submit to the record bio. information from Wikipedia, your Honor, if I may ... [reaches to the other tab to ctrl-c]:
... known for applying post-Keynesian ideas to development economics.So you throw some numbers into the software, then tweek it to come up with your ideology. But, they all do that. If the results show that Communism is the best, then there you go. You don't need to go visit the USSR, Cuba, or China to verify. Save the U. money on travel expenses and TRUST THE MODELS! Oh, and:
[SNIP]
His 1978 book Capital Accumulation and Income Distribution critiques mainstream economic theories, using mathematical modeling to propose an alternative model for thinking about the effects of capital accumulation on income inequality, economic growth, instability, and other phenomena.

So, leaving aside the question of the now-seen-to-be Totalitarian bastard from Minnesota for the time being, we have an American Presidential candidate who's father was a Communist. Is that OK? Yeah, I know America's Founders didn't foresee this sort of thing.* I don't think this would have flown as late as 2000 even, much less 1950.
However, we're talking the late '50s to the early '70s when Don Harris made the rounds of the hotbed (and other) universities doing schooling and teaching. Affirmative Action was around during the latter part, but he really must have had something on the ball, no matter his odious racial and Communist economic ideas. In other words, I want nothing to do with the man, but I don't think he's stupid.
His now grown-up daughter, however, is quite another story. She's picked up the Communism over the years, but never quite picked up the smarts to go with it... I mean NONE Of it.
I got to that article from Instapundit. Did you notice what publication that is? I sure didn't! This morning, I read this thing from yesterday, with Catherine Rampell describing how perfectly stupid Kamelion's anti-Inflation, anti-Price Gouging proposal is, before I looked to see what site I was on. I got pretty far in fact, until I saw the abject stupidity of writer Catherine Rampell herself to boot. Only then did I scroll to the top. Ahhhh, that explains everything.
(Instapundit) Glenn Reynolds had more of Harris the younger's economic stupidity pointed out too, something we'll have to visit with another post.
WWDHT? That is, What Would Dr. Harris Think, of his daughter now? It's great and all that she's all on-board with an ideology that's destructive to traditional societies. But, you've got to be smart about it! You have to read (at least the Cliff Notes for) Das Kapital and see how to explain how, never mind the disregard for human nature, Communism works for us all. You can't just blurt really, really stupid ideas that, well, yeah, are the gist of Communism, but are too obviously really freaking stupid. What in hell did your mother teach you all those years, little girl?
My man Jerry on the pedal steel guitar there wasn't a Communist, but I don't know about the other 3. They probably learned something since 1970. Karmakarma Kamelion hasn't learned squat. That's how AA works.
* The did foresee the foreign infiltrator angle and came up with the "natural-born citizen" stipulation. I guess nobody cares about that either.

Who knew? I had always thought these dots were made with Magicโข Marker. C'mon Brahmins. Whaddya' need a refresher course. It's all sticker nowadays!"
About the "Asian" market, hey where are my pot stickers and rice noodles? Asia is a big freaking continent, so I want my sushi! Oh, and who know Ghana was in Asia.

PS: First, thank you for 2 more on-line books, Mr. Smith. As for Dr. Don Harris's book, yeah, who needs it, but the question is WWTGJMHD?
What? OK, I'll spell it out: What Would Tail Gunner Joe McCarthy Have Done? Contrary to 70 years of "history", he would not have burned the book. He wouldn't have called for any general ban on Commie Harris' book. The only place McCarthy would have banned the book would have been from the very specific America-funded libraries (called "reading rooms") in countries very near Communist ones that were built to give alternative views on the subject. That, my friends, is the rest of the story.

PS: Being both kinds of Indians would be a real feather, errr, in her cap. There are some DIEversity points. With that many, you shouldn't need to talk to the press, appear in debates, or any of that old White man stuff.
Ha, I just thought of something. I wonder if it would help Kamaelion in States such as New Jersey (lots of dot-Indians, but then again, the bag for the D's) to appear at events with a red dot on her shoulder. Do they have stick-on ones? Another question comes up - would the Secret Service be alarmed when first seeing a red dot on her forehead?

Since Kamalaโs father identified as Jamaican on her birth certificate, why has nobody asked what that really means?
Is he Taรญno (Caribbean Indian) ? Is she actually Feather Indian, Dot Indian, or both?

PS: I've read your story of Mr. Limbaugh and you before, Alarmist. I imagine this was too early to have been something one could find a recording of. That'd be a really nice souvenir of sorts for you, along with that tie, of course.
Interesting description of your m.o. there. There ARE, of course, Conservative Deadheads. Your moderator, you, and then, there's Tucker. His book title "Ship of Fools" comes from a Grateful Dead song. I reviewed that book here - look in "Books" - took me only 3 posts too. ;-}

PS: Old Solider, I agree they will do everything to help, as they are an unofficial department of the Regime now. It's just the narrative they've been given and their latest assignment.
As for her Border Czar position, nobody, but nobody, in power wanted her to get anything done. She might have been less lazy and gone down there a few more times, and come back with some bullet points given to her by Traitorous Alex Mayorkas at least.
She is spouting off all these new promises that mean nothing in a way I've not seen before. It seems like she has given no thought to any of it, but has been told to say this and say that. They need to give her enough to memorize so that she doesn't go into cackle mode or "unburdening" word salad mode.
I've truly never seen somebody this stupid get so much airtime. (The 3 stooges, maybe?)

PS
Kamala is an Octaroon descendant of slave owners, and is little more than a slap in the face of the American Descendants of Slaves (yes, thatโs a thing), and so utterly stupid that she cannot dress her Marxism with even the slightest veneer of plausible practicality.
Jerry Garcia had a nice line of neckties in the โ90s, as did Rush Limbaugh. I wore a Garcia tie to a taping of the Rush Limbaugh TV show, and he zeroed in on it and, lowering his voice to a conspiratorial tone, told the audience, โLadies and Gentlemen, Iโve spotted a liberal.โ
He was, of course, wrong. Iโm a closeted right-wing extremist in a tailor-made Saville Row suit operating under deep cover and jumping on any chance to throw sand in the gears of ClownWorld ๐คก๐.

PS
The media will do everything to protect kamala. She won't get any tough questions from lefties. If the media honestly vetted her, there's no way she'd win. This is the person who polled 1% during the 2020 Presidential campaign and was ranked in Congress as a FAR LEFT Congress member, even MORE left than Bernie Sanders. Biden's failures are her failures - she was there beside him as his VP and didn't utter a single word of discontent about his everyday failures. And remember! She's only been to the southern border once (briefly on 6/25/2021) and seems to have little, if any, personal knowledge of what goes on there.
kamala had 4 years as VP to get a lot done for working folks but managed to squander it all. ...I know of NOTHING that she got done as the Border Czar or anything else or any other "position" she held. Now that she's been appointed a place in the presidential race, sans voters or votes, suddenly it's one campaign promise after another. Politicians don't get any more hilarious and predictable than that. Now, she says she'll solve the border problem, end taxes on tips, give amnesty to all illegals, yada, yada, yada. And 13% of the population will eat it up.
kamala's only expertise is in demonstrating "what can be" while on knee pads.
Lie, cheat, steal... it's all Democrats have. It's their only legacy.
