Possibly the first time in history that a VP candidate ( Harris ) could negatively affect a presidential candidates prospects

Kamala sounds fake when she's not in prosecutor mode.

Harris is Tamil, Scottish and (maybe) Jamaican. She grew up in Montreal eating her mother's curry. Indian (the country) Americans are among the most successful demographic groups in the USA with a very strong showing in small business ownership. I don't think idpol works well for Harris but I don't think it works against her. The biggest negatives for Harris are: - Poor ability to connect with voters, poor speaking, low charm, word salading. - Perceived as unwilling or uninterested in doing the VP job. No President has needed an active VP more than Biden and Harris has done almost nothing. She had a great opportunity to prove herself but she and her husband complain when she is asked to help. - Aggression and defensiveness that seems to come from a lack of confidence. Her discomfort makes others uncomfortable. - Awkward around children, adults, voters, workers, black men, people without money, hominids, mammals and earthlings. - Overlaps with the Pelosi/Bay area power base that is positioning Newsom to replace Biden. A Newsom Harris ticket would be 100% San Francisco and that will have very limited appeal in swing states.

I'll say it: I hate Kamala Harris. She was a do-nothing prosecutor and a do-nothing Attorney General. She has cultivated a blank canvas image in an effort to make herself a smaller target. Ditch her and put in Tammy Duckworth. Not only does she check all the boxes, but she stands for something. .so to speak.

Voice of law and order? Earlier this week at a leadership summit, your VP, Kamala Harris, tells young Americans to “kick that fvcking door down” when it comes to breaking barriers.

I love Gretchen Whitmer not Kamala Harris. I’ve wanted Whitmer to be president. Harris’ nasaly sound rubs me wrong. Also I have never been excited by her. I supported Joe Biden over her in the primaries. I saw Harris speak to a Latina business group. It was mildly inspiring. But she think Biden should have replaced her Whitmer.

He needs to keep Kamala. There’s always a threat against black women.

Unconscious bias is the reason you think KH is so hated? Go to California and speak to any liberal. No progressives but liberals - and you will get a clear answer. She has no political core, was a terrible AG, and has been an ineffective VP. The fact that she is one step removed from the presidency is a major concern.

Harris is a rock star. We are constantly being hit with anti Harris propaganda including the headline of this article.
