Kamala Harris for Pres

I agree, she was chosen because she's black and a woman. I remember at the time thinking how ridiculous it was that they chose her and how ridiculous it was that if old man Biden croaked she would suddenly be our President.

I mean that wasn't a secret. Biden said it waaaay before she was chosen. I don't think he even liked her, if i remember correctly she ripped into him during their primaries for being racist pretty much.
 
She doesn’t have to be the most well liked. She just has to beat Trump. Why are people always focusing on her faults and never on Trump’s?

I suspect that no matter who the Democrats find, there will be faults. And if people just focus on those and never on Trump, then I guess Trump will win no matter who the Democrats choose.

This isn't about Trump, it's about fielding the candidate who has the best chance to win. We can't afford to **** this up.
 
Damn, I’m so confused, he is more in-line with Trumps base? Let’s see what Trump said a couple months ago:

Seems like Trump is more anti-vax than RFK and more pro-vax than Biden at the same time.

Or out of his own mouth:

Agree with him, not antivax, just make sure they are properly tested.
I’m not anti-modern medicine, but we have major problems in health care:


Maybe more yearly training, testing, 2nd opinions, ect.

If Kamala, Trump and RFK are the options, it’s still an easy choice for me.

He chaired Children’s Health Defense. Look them up and have a nice day.
 
Folks bashing Harris for being a DEI while supporting Trump’s pick of Mike Pence… lol. What was pence to Trump? The token white Christian who could soften Trump’s edges and win over evangelicals. What were his qualifications again? A failed governor who was going to lose his election in Indiana?

Our totally neutral posters are going out of their way to bash Harris and Democrats while ignoring Trump and all of his many flaws. So predictable.
Ya the pence pick wasn't due to qualifications. It was to get the old guard on board. And it was smart.
Now he chose Vance who isn't very experienced because Vance is a total sycophant.
I don't think either choice was because they were the most deserving of the job.

I also don't think Kamala was the choice because she was the most deserving. I think it was to help get more POC and female votes. Which is a smart thing to do.

Kamala will get criticized for not being deserving and pence and Vance will not. Because this is America (and the planet Earth) where women and POC will always get criticized a bit extra.

I saw that interview when it aired and Amna Nawaz was not at all impartial with RFK. It pissed me off at the time.
 
Oh please. Trump choose Pence because he shored up his Evangelical creds, which he was sorely lacking at the time. DEI selection by your logic. Clinton chose Gore as his running mate as Gore shored up something Clinton was lacking at the time: family value appeal. Hell, Ross Perot back in the mid 90s chose retired Adm. Stockdale because it gave him some "military cred". Reagan chose Bush Sr. because he had deep government experience, which Reagan lacked at the time. Every Veep is initially selected during the first term for some reason or another. It does not change the fact they were the ****ing Vice President (except for Stockdale, he just reiterates the point).
So what did Kamala bring?

Pence - governing
Gore - Family
Perot - Military
Bush - Government Experience

Again, Biden already had Family, Government. She didn’t bring Military, Government or Family.

What were her qualifications?

She was the DA of San Fransisco, A.G. for California, and a United States Senator.

You did not think that through, did you?

Well sure, but why not go with someone who is well liked and also has to beat trump.

It's like people who say i like trump cause he will be tough on immigration.
Well, how about someone else who will be tough on immigration but isn't a douchey criminal?

We need to stop settling and demand better.

Democrats have a handful of really good politicians who are so much more articulate and not compromised who would be a much better choice than Harris. Same as the Republicans who also had many far better choices that the narcissist who now has a God complex if he didn't already have one. Shame. Pete B would've been an excellent choice that really could've swung things.

and sorry anyone who denies Harris was 100 % DEI and not merit is nothing more than a blinkered fool Enjoy the coming all round ********
She's not a ****ing DEI hire. These are the Dems. She's VP, it's her "turn." That's how the Dems run their ****.

The primary issue is everyone has their personal favorite that they think everyone "likes" more than other horses, when it's really all personal preference in that regard.

out of curiosity how many people do you think would've voted for DeSantis who would never vote for Trump ?? Bc it seemed like a terrible decision not to go with someone who was Trump like but in a more polite presentable package ??
 
She was the DA of San Fransisco, A.G. for California, and a United States Senator.

And apparently trump liked her enough to write her a check.

Sounds like her history is more inline to be the AG, not the VP.

This is not why Biden picked her and you know it.

What are her accomplishments as VP?

This is why I say Pete should be the VP; only a mayor and transportation head. Needs more experience, would be more successful in his tasks than Kamala as a VP.

There is no company in the world that would take Kamala over Pete to run it. None. But you want Kamala to be the lead on the ticket because your overlords told you she is the best and a couple polls told you.

You want the best option, big picture she is not the best option.
