‘I Am Ready To Serve’: Kamala Harris Responds To Concerns Over Biden’s Age
Can someone explain to me why I shouldn’t like Kamala Harris? And if someone says because she hasn’t been an effective VP, could someone show me an example of an effective VP in modern US history?
Peoples arguments stem from her political career before VP specifically due to her being a cop, her strong support for stop and frisk, and some terrible policies which harmed the black community by propagating their mass incarceration along with poor standards of education and access to public services. To be clear though, still better than the guy who states he'll be a dictator for "a day" whose lawyer claimed in court he could have his political opposition killed and as long as he wasn't impeached, it'd be legal
Cheney was pretty effective. Not that that was a good thing.
He was part of the Nixon, Ford, and both Bush Whitehouses...served in Congress during Reagan.
He knew where a lot of bodies went, which helps you get your things done.
As a VP backing up Biden, I think she's swell. As the candidate who has to beat Trump, I don't think she's strong enough. She shat the bed in the primary debates, and she has a complicated record as a prosecutor and previously supported policies that make it easy to criticize. She's either "evolved" on divisive issues, or she's on the wrong side of history.
The same could be said of Biden, but he has the decades of connections and experience, not to mention charisma, that helped him pull ahead in the primary and the general in 2020. I don't like him, and I think he's very beatable, but I think Harris would be much worse. In an open primary, I don't think Harris would win the nomination, even running as an incumbent (like if Biden stepped down). Maybe if Biden wins and then immediately steps down, giving her four years to establish herself, she could craft a new identity. But it is too late for that now.
If Biden were unavailable as a candidate, we'll get four more years of Trump.
To name a few:
-Championed and implemented legislation that put parents in prison if their child skipped school (truency)
-She blocked evidence that would have freed an innocent man from death row until the courts forced her to do so
-Put 1900 people in prison for smoking weed, while giggling about smoking it herself
-Blocked access to 12$ DNA tests, to check if the preserved DNA from a crime is from the defendant.

Joe Biden.
That is the big advantage of the Dems here. If Trump croaks before the election, the GOP has nothing but a field of debris. If Biden does, Harris is still there.
You say that like it’s a good thing. She is very very unpopular.
Of course the black lady is unpopular in politics. The only thing my mother in law can tell you about why she doesn't like VP Harris is that her husband is white.
Has she done something to earn that status? As far as I can tell, I just never hear about her. Over the last three presidents the only time I recall a VP being particularly prominent was when his president's followers called for his hanging.
At least this authoritarian will have a big ol (D) next to their name! That's what's important right guys?!
God I can't wait for HiroCheeto to croak so I can go back to hating on Dems without immediately getting some schpeel about solidarity. Yes, I'll vote Democrat, but fuck do I want an actual progressive party.
Right? Like, do we need to heat her up before she’s served or is she good at room temperature?
Well done for confirming you’re ready to fulfill the most basic term of the agreement of your position. Here, have a medal. Wtf. Tomorrow I’m going to send an email company wide stating that I’m ready to come to be at work on time, should the situation demand it.
.
You’re right. I was harsh. It just feels all so messed up.
Has she even spoken about abortion rights yet? I remember this video where she doesn't even say the word lol

I mean I would hope so. That's one of the biggest jobs of being vice president.
I hope that Biden gets reelected and then a few months in steps down and gives us the first female and black president. The maggats will lose their fucking minds and I'm going to have a trailer of popcorn ready for the show.
I don't really like Kamala Harris much, but I really doubt she'd be substantially worse than Biden. And probably miles better than virtually any Republican.
I'm not gonna say it would be wrong to happen that way, but I do feel like it would be a disservice to civil rights for the first woman president to be a matter of technicality, deigned to be given by an old white man. It would always be a bit marred by that.
The thing is if Biden really did that, she would be able to run 2 more terms as president. I think Lyndon had that chance but didn't get reelected for a 2nd term. Outside of Roosevelt, she would have the chance to serve longer than 2 years as president.
That's one of the only jobs of being VP. Be ready in case your boss dies, and cast the tie-breaking vote in the Senate. The position serves no other purpose. Just ask the first guy who took the job:
-- John Adams
