She’s already broken barriers, and now Kamala Harris could shatter several more after President Joe Biden abruptly ended his reelection bid and endorsed her.
Biden announced Sunday that he was stepping aside after a disastrous debate performance catalyzed fears that the 81-year-old was too frail for a second term.
Harris is the first woman, Black person or person of South Asian descent to serve as vice president. If she becomes the Democratic nominee and defeats Republican candidate Donald Trump in November, she would be the first woman to serve as president.
Biden said Sunday that choosing Harris as his running mate was “the best decision I’ve made” and endorsed her as his successor.
Let’s maybe not focus solely on this, instead maybe on policy? Real problems Americans are facing every day is going to win more votes. Making the entire campaign about gender issues isn’t alone going to win shit.
Honestly, she has been shadowing an all-around decent president for the last 3ish years and like Obama, has the legal chops to back it up. Im not a fan of her stances from her DA days, but I dont think there is anyone else more qualified to do the job.
Agreed, I believe she has a lot to offer.
You can bet Republicans are gonna make her race and gender an issue though
Well that’s their loser strategy.
They already have, filling talks in all spaces with mysogyny and racism as soon as biden bowed out.
And it’s REALLY gonna help the black and woman vote they’ve been trying so hard to get. Just check out Bowman/Vance these days, dude’s holding in his desire to talk about abortion so hard he looks like he could shit himself any moment.
If elections were based on policy the GOP would have ceased to exist four days into Reagan’s presidency.
Not alone, but it will tick another box in voters’ minds
I’m happy for another chance at a Gen X president , not ready for a Millennial VP
Isn’t she technically a very young boomer?
No, technically she is Generation Jones.
