There is a very good chance we will have a President Harris next year. This might be a good thing. The world leaders from my youth include Golda Meir, Indira Gandhi, and Margaret Thatcher. All strong powerful leaders. I really could not recall the names of men from the era. Then for something like forty years, no powerful female leaders. We are due for a change.
Women become leaders for different reasons. Look at the ladies I just mentioned. Their paths to leadership were all different. Joe could not go on when the assassin’s bullet missed Trump. Harris now has her chance.
I really do know a lot about Kamala Harris. I remember her telling a story about a child in a school bus. Also she was a prosecutor in California. Additionally she spent some time in the Senate. Most people that run for president have been either a senator or governor. That box has been checked. That first line in this paragraph was unintentional sarcasm.
Kamala is formally known as Vice President Harris. That is a really big box ticked. Even better, her party is the most powerful in the world. The job is hers. She would have to mess up quite badly to loose. After the convention she should be well ahead in the polls.
The media could mess it up for her though. They keep calling her black. I know I can be oblivious, but she does not look black. I know from personal experience the media can manipulation a person’s skin color. But this is a bit of a stretch. Then again, when it comes to politics, when does the media tell the truth?
What could go wrong? I have yet to see Harris give an inspirational Obama style speech. I view her as a sycophant. The same could be said of JD Vance. They are towing the party line till the rope runs out. The problem is all they know how to do is lie. Joe was quite elegant in his delivery of lies. When it came to normal thoughts, absolutely nobody was at home. He did have the support of three quarters of the media, until the debate. After that the only way to win was to take out the opposition. And they missed. Bye Joe.
Welcome Harris. Be brave. You are now the boss. I hope you will be a good boss, we have had plenty of bad bosses. Don’t be like Joe. Don’t hate your people. We should be equal citizens under the law. As a prosecutor, Please do not use lawfare, treat people equally. Earn people’s respect by being fair. Get better speech writers, research your facts. Maybe even build a fence. You can do that now.
Unfortunately these days the easiest way to pass scrutiny, is to not have a history. Vice President Harris is doing well in that department. As a final thought. When all the elderly leaders of the Soviet Empire passed away they ended up with Putin. Don’t be a Putin. Best of luck to you Kamala
