She’s already broken barriers, and now Kamala Harris could soon become the first Black woman to head a major party's presidential ticket after President Joe Biden’s ended his reelection bid.
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.
Because dems' only chance to win is to get non voters off their asses, which she won't do. If people who regularly vote are holding their noses and voting for her to beat Trump, non voters won't turn up at all.
These "non voters" are bunch of fickle assholes. "I won't vote because Biden is old" "I won't vote because Biden supports genocide"... Okay, how about a young candidate who doesn't support genocide. "Oh...uh.... hold on, I need to check the online troll posts to come up with a reason... oh, I won't vote for Harris because (any reason they can find)"
They aren't going to vote at all, they just want attention. No one should court them or care about them. Their only impact is to help Trump win with their nay saying. I say fuck those pieces of shit.
You realize that people like you are just helping the Republicans win by pushing Democrats not to vote because "it's a lost cause anyway"? Then again, it's probably what you're wishing for.
I share your concerns but shes too new a candidate to have polling numbers reliably showing what states she'd be weak in. Wish it hadn't been such a late switchup, certainly not ideal to fall back to Bidens VP suddenly like this but perhaps it catches the Trump campaign flat footed. Perhaps Vance wouldn't have been the GOP VP pick if Trump had known he was up against Harris, seems to be some indication their campaign is struggling to pivot with regards to the switch.
