Yes? Are you suggesting that most models get their jobs from family connections?

5'11" on the short end for most modeling, to say nothing of the tattoos

fortunately her sinecure for the big modeling agency is "brand ambassador"

I also had a marketing professor who worked as a PR flack for Qatar when they were making their FIFA bid and presented his work as a case study

of course zero mentions of labor issues in the construction of their Tower of Babel stadiums

was a business degree worth it? probably not. did I get to meet a wide range of weird perverts that enriched the experience and my understanding of the world? yes.

turn on incognito mode to search "kamela" and the 2nd result is "kamela harris step daughter"

maybe take a step back and let it lie for a while before furiously attacking a girl who got a modeling contract for looking a certain way on TV since as we all know real models only get hired after building up their work experience in the facelift mines.

also lol anyone thinking modeling/acting is somehow a merit based industry only filled by true hard working souls who know the value of their labor.

she wasn't even hired as a model you freaks. a model has to actually do work, which goes against the entire point of nepotism.

She looks like any other oh so quirky young white girl. So what could possibly set her apart from them to be chosen for a "brand ambassador" position, besides being connected to rich and powerful people?

merit isn't simply a quality of existence, typically you have to do something to garner merit. pretty sure she didn't actively work to grow to 5'11"

Do you mean that only Marines get saluted? Not the other branches?

no, just that marines are the ones guarding the White House. I meant it equally to say the Air Force guys who man the bottom of Air Force one etc. so if you see a picture of a president saluting someone chances are that person is a marine. point is returning the salute only started with Reagan. why didn’t previous presidents salute? even say Eisenhower?
because the president is a civilian.
