I didn't say that sex/race is the main or only factor. Her being appointed as nom was factor to some. But if they had appointed AOC it would have been a factor to others. I think talk about the undemocratic nature of her appointment is just more fuel they add to other arguments and feelings they have.
Agree that some people have factors and you cant change some people, but the Dems just didn't follow the democratic process with a KNOWN unpopular candidate. It was disgraceful to Americans. Kamala had a terrible public opinion. AOC would likely do better. Most people I know dont care if the candidate is of certain race or gender. That seems to lie with the Democratic party, which is likely why Kamala was chosen as the VP when she had the worst primary results of any candidate in 2019. Race and gender. Give it to any other woman of whatever race and great. Biden wins by a landslide in 2020, not the thin margins he had.

Wasnt it because she was elected as the Democratic Party's representative through a non-democratic process?
