In announcing the pick Tuesday, Biden called Harris a “fearless fighter for the little guy, and one of the country’s finest public servants.”

Yikes. I would say a lot of things about Kamala Harris but i certainly would not say that. I might be more compelled to believe that she was chose for reasons other than her minority status if Biden could say something actually true about her.

Trump has set the bar so low that this combo would actually be an improvement.

i’d vote for a muppet at this point.

Indeed.  A muppet would be marked improvement.

As far as I can understand from my african-american friends Biden already has the black boomer vote - he was Obama's best pal and all that

i’d vote for a muppet at this point.

I couldn't agree more

I know Kamala Harris better than a lot of people who don't live here in California. Sure she let Steve Mnuchin go free for his financial crimes, but as a prosecutor that and other cases weren't all decided by her. I don't care that she's black ( Shirley Chisholm ran for President in 1972, but didn't get out of the primaries ). Or that she's a woman ( Geraldine Ferraro was the first female VP , campaigning with former VP Walter Mondale in 1984 ). Neither of those things are that significant.

What matters is that she's a FIGHTER, not only for civil rights -- Kamala did a fine job as Attorney General of California, but look at her work in the U.S. Senate. She was tough questioning all of Trump's shady nominees -- most notably Judge Brett Kavanaugh and former U.S. Attorney General Bill Bar who re-applied for and unfortunately got the job. Harris can spot a liar and expose them when given enough time! I'm glad I voted for her in 2016, and if she wasn't Biden's VPick now, I would have cast my ballot for her again in 2022. I'm glad I get to do it this year instead.
