I don't want to hear badmouthing about Kamala Harris' record as a prosecutor [View all]

Kamala is a VERY progressive Senator. Progressive punch ranks her as the MOST progressive Senator.

Her record as a prosecutor - being tough on crime - will be an ASSET in the general election especially against someone as blustery as Trump. While her previous career isn’t going to win her points with some members of our Democratic coalition, it absolutely is going to win her points with the crucial independents and centrist republicans who want someone other than Trump.

We need to think not just about the primary but about the general. Kamala will make one hell of a progressive President. And I’d bet money she will push DOJ to explore Trump corruption that he’s sweeping under the rug.

If I were to vote in a presidential
primary today, I would vote for:
Joe Biden
