Kamala Harris for president!

[Eliot Rosewater]

They didnt want a black man, they used the KGB to make sure we couldnt have a woman, wanna see heads explode?

Give em a BLACK WOMAN as president


Isn't she also Indian American?

Sorry if I would take some PLEASURE in seeing deplorables heads explode.

You see her merit will never be considered by anyone on the right and by MANY on the far left, so talking about her merit in context of those people is a waste of time.

Of course she is highly qualified or will be by that time. Not as qualified as the last woman to run, but give her time.

1. Isn't she also Indian American?

WHAT DIFFERENCE DOES IT MAKE??

[Eliot Rosewater]

2. Hillary couldnt be prez because she was a minority they fear, Obama had to be obstructed

because he was a minority they feared.

I wont pretend EVERYTHING isnt about race and misogyny myself

[Aristus]

3. I'd vote for her just on merit.

But she's also very attractive. And if she makes right-wing heads explode, I'm cool with that. It's not like we'll have to dodge flying brain matter.

[Eliot Rosewater]

4. Of course it is about merit, but to the cons and some others I cant mention

it will be about her color and her gender.

[Aristus]

8. I agree.

5. +1,000 !!

Merit indeed!

[Ohiogal]

6. I think

we will have a lot of good, extremely competent, and interesting candidates running in 2020.

7. She is incredibly intelligent and perceptive

quite impressive. I have been keeping an eye on her for several years now - ever since she told the voting machine companies to give us (California) your code or get out.

9. Did she join the stampede against Franken?

[Eliot Rosewater]

10. Doesnt matter

Dont know, dont care and there is not a bigger supporter of Al on here and I can prove it.

[lame54]

16. There are many smaller supporters who do care

[Eliot Rosewater]

19. Smaller? Uh, I dont care because I consider having Nazis in the WH a bigger problem

than whether or not a couple democrats showed poor judgment on one issue.

[lame54]

20. Aren't we talking about a primary?

[honest.abe]

21. Arent we also talking about who has the best chance of winning back the WH?

I believe as many others Harris would have a broad appeal in a GE.

[lame54]

22. She has to get there first and...

Pretending she doesn't have a Franken problem won't help her

[honest.abe]

23. I think to many a "franken problem" pales in comparison to winning back the WH.

imho.

[lame54]

24. We can win back the whitehouse...

With somebody else

[honest.abe]

25. Maybe.. but I want our absolute best candidate.

Dont forget we have to beat the Russians and RW media and the cheating GOP.

15. Every single Dem senator, either in public or private said he should resign

or said he did the right thing by resigning

except for

1. The 3 Dems (Coons, Shaheen, Schatz) on the Senate Ethics committee, who refused comment

2. Bob Menendez, who was at the time himself under federal ethics investigation and refused comment

And

3. Joe Manchin, who was the ONLY Democratic senator who said Franken should not resign

17. Joe Manchin for President

[Exotica]

18. I would support a Harris POTUS/ Manchin VP ticket in a heartbeat

Not saying he is my favourite VP, but hell yes, I would be super happy with those 2.

One huge potential downside is if Manchin wins Senate in 2018, we lose his seat to a Rethug, as WV has a Repug Gov

[honest.abe]

28. I assume this is sarcasm.

I appreciate Manchin voting with us the vast majority of the time but he has positions that go against core principles of the Democratic Party.

26. ...

11. Harris / Castro 2020

[Eliot Rosewater]

14. [phone] nt

[rollin74]

13. k & r

[rainin]

27. I would vote for her! Also, Michelle Obama, and most recently

I heard talk about Avernatti getting into politics in the future. He's got the fighting spirit I want to see.

[comradebillyboy]

30. Harris and Booker both look good

I'd be happy to support either one. It would be good to see candidate who are under 60. Also saw Jay Inslee, governor of Washington on the tube recently. He could be a contender as well.

[StevieM]

31. I like her well enough, but I want Tom Steyer to be our next president. (eom)

[mainstreetonce]

32. Biden/ Harris

One term for Joe.

[colsohlibgal]

33. Kamala Would Be A Great Candidate!

Biden is just too old, it is time to turn the page with newer blood. How about Gavin Newsome as VP. That would be a formidable, energetic, progressive team.

But....we need to not just focus on that, we need to fight to the end in all races, from a President To County Commissioner. We need to take our country back to truth, Justice, and real progressive populism.

Time to reclaim our Nation!
