In California Sen. Kamala Harris, Biden chooses a VP hailing from our most diverse state

Joe Biden has chosen California Sen. Kamala Harris as his running mate. She could be the first woman and first person of color to be vice president.Latinas ven en Harris a una ‘inspiración para las mujeres’ y una representante de la diversidad culturalBiden doesn’t have to worry about Harris slacking off on the campaign trail — as some presidential candidates have had to in the past. She’s an eager brawler.

It added: “Kamala doesn’t hesitate to take on powerful people and powerful interests and that’s exactly the kind of leader Joe wants by his side to rebuild this country and restore the soul of the nation.”Critics of Harris’ performances as California attorney general and San Francisco district attorney have cited her caution in taking on tough foes, especially if it would alienate her core constituency: law enforcement.

Harris also declined to take positions on controversial ballot measures, including two to abolish the death penalty — a practice she claimed to abhor — and another to reduce prison sentences. Harris’ strength is in her prosecutorial skills, not her policy wisdom or tactical genius. And that’s what Biden is counting on.

Diversity...isn't that the thing Biden said that Blacks lacked but Latinos had. Come on man, I can't keep this racism stuff straight, Joe.

JoeBiden chooses VP from most leftist, most morally corrupt, most bankrupts state...so we have that choice. Actually not a choice.

Most radical-ass-backwards state in America leading the Country in homelessness + illegal immigrants. The state with the largest Gap in pay inequality with Hollywood Entertainers & athletes vs the middle class.

I miss my state California from the valley to the city to the mountains California people from my area had people and places everywhere.

Can anyone tell me what percentage of Kamala Harris is Black? She is Indian/Jamaican and therefore might be a a bit Black or not. She may identify as Black from her time spent in Oakland, California?

I guess you’re forgetting Hillary Clinton competed with Obama in the Democratic primaries in 2008. When he won the Presidency, he made her Secretary of State. It’s called,”doing what’s best for your country,and not for your personal feelings”Holding grudges is Trump’s style.

Thank you Vice President Biden for choosing President Harris. I think President Obama will agree with his Vice President.

she's a goddamn hypocrite. Called Biden a racist, etc. She is what you would call and Aunt Tom.

She also hails from a slave owning family in Jamaica. Owned more slaves than any other there. Good job proving your “revolution” is purely a misplaced tantrum. Soros puppets!

Another incompetent politician making empty promises. She and the Dems own the mess California is in.

A state riddled with SOCIALIST DEMOCRATS out to destroy America. Harris mocked Biden and now holds his hand. BOTH HIPOCRATES.all dems are out to destroy America and institute a SOCIALIST COMMUNIST agenda. Look around you,their doing it now.

You mean her? 🤔

Biden selects California Sen. Kamala Harris as running mateBREAKING: Joe Biden picks California Sen. Kamala Harris as his running mate, making her the first Black woman on a major party presidential ticket. Harris, a 55-year-old first-term senator, is one of the party's most prominent figures. CarrascoTV Half black. She's half Tamil Indian. 2 disgraceful racists. And BLM will be voting for them. You can't make this up. But great job with the syrup. As a resident of San Francisco and a first-hand witness to the havoc that SF progressivism has wreaked on the city, I could not in good conscience vote a SF politician to national office.
