      Herring said he and two friends dressed up to look like rappers they listened to, including Kurtis Blow. Herring urged Northam to resign after the discovery of a photo of someone in blackface on his 1984 medical school yearbook page. http://apne.ws/HWwo4YT

          This is why we need more women in government. No black face pics, almost no sex scandals and no hush money.

          Maybe you need to research Kamala Harris before making this statement.

          The ultimate karma would be that make up becoming permanent and them being forced to spend the rest of their lives in blackface.

          Pretty soon Virginia is going to have no one left in government as more and more stories come out.
