Bet on Obama to nominate Kamala Harris as Holder's replacement - relaunch war on women & racism memes

If I were a betting man, I'd place my chips on Kamala Harris to be Barack Obama's nominee to replace exiting Attorney General Eric Holder. She may or may not be qualified, but that's not really what's important here. Harris is the first African American, Asian American, female to hold the office of California Attorney General. - Robert Laurie/Herman Cain

Barack Obama famously described her this way:
“You have to be careful to, first of all, say she is brilliant and she is dedicated and she is tough, and she is exactly what you’d want in anybody who is administering the law, and making sure that everybody is getting a fair shake. She also happens to be, by far, the best looking attorney general in the country.”
Yes, that would have been labelled as insulting, ignorant, and sexist had a Republican said it but Obama, obviously, gets a pass. There's no war on women where the President is concerned. That, in a roundabout way, brings us to the point.
