The first female President of the USA - Kamala Harris

I think she would be great for this nation. And I hope for 2020 or 2024. She just got elected to the US Senate taking Boxer's seat, and she did great as Attorney General for California.

I've voted for her since I heard of her in 2010 and she is one of my very favorite politicians.

I'm okay with Harris as a candidate but we need geographic diversity besides just the coasts.

She has time and will be known once the Senate gets in it's wars. I hope she teams with Warren and Sanders.
