It Has to Be Harris
The media succeeded in pushing out a president. Now it's time to line up behind Vice President Kamala Harris.

Well, it happened.
The corporate media-manufactured railroading of President Joe Biden that for almost a solid month sucked up all the coverage that should have been dedicated to Donald Trump’s corrosive agenda and pathological lies succeeded in convincing the most consequential president in a generation to withdraw his bid for a second term.
Naturally, Biden placed his full support in Vice President Kamala Harris, and, so far Democratic party heavies are following suit.
With one month to go before the Democratic National Convention (DNC), there are those still playing fantasy football with presidential candidates, however. California Gov. Gavin Newsom’s name is still being tossed about a possible name to be proffered at the convention. Pennsylvania Gov. Josh Shapiro is another. So is Michigan Gov. Gretchen Whitmer. Transportation Secretary Pete Buttigieg is another. JB Pritzker, Andy Beshear, Amy Klobuchar, Cory Booker are all names the media is floating.

But here’s the thing: It has to be Kamala Harris.
While the aforementioned might be acceptable vice presidential picks (except Newsom since the Constitution prevents presidential and vice presidential candidates from the same state), Kamala Harris was chosen as Biden’s running mate so she would be ready to step in should Biden no longer serve. We voted for her when we voted for the Biden/Harris ticket. She has been a dutiful, faithful, effective, accomplished, stalwart vice president.
To pass up a biracial, Asian-American woman who gave up her seat in the Senate to serve this country as President Biden’s right hand for another white male could be the very thing that loses us the election. A floor fight at an open convention in Chicago would be the very blood in the water the media would exploit to “prove” the Democratic party is in disarray--just what the opposition wants.
With all that’s at stake, we can’t risk that.
Presuming Harris is the nominee, let’s look at the contrast between candidates.
Kamala Harris was a prosecutor who prosecuted sex offenders. Donald Trump is one.
Kamala Harris is a former Attorney General of California. Donald Trump is a convicted felon.
As Attorney General, Harris shuttered fraudulent for-profit colleges. Donald Trump ran a scam online “university” that stole from veterans for which he was ordered to pay a $25 million education fraud settlement (as a sitting president).
Kamala Harris is a biracial (Jamaican and Indian) Asian American woman. Donald Trump is a racist, sexist xenophobe.
One of Donald Trump’s jobs when his father, Fred Trump, ran the family business was to mark housing applications from applicants of color with a “C” so they could be denied housing, for which the Nixon Justice Dept. sued for racial discrimination. (Yes, he was even too racist for Richard Nixon.)
To “win” the 2016 election, Trump solicited help from Russia. He then lost the popular vote.
Congress impeached Trump twice — once for attempting to extort the Ukrainian president into finding dirt on Joe Biden, and again for inciting the January 6, 2021 attempted coup to keep himself in power.
While in office, he told 30,573 lies (not “falsehoods,” as the media prefers to call them).
Upon leaving office (reluctantly), he made sure to go back to his Florida golf resort with classified documents, some of which contained nuclear intelligence information, left them lying around in various insecure locations, showed them off to various people, and may have even sold some to foreign governments. (In exchange for what did Saudi Arabia give his son in law, Jared Kushner, $2 billion dollars?)
Kamala Harris seeks to build on the accomplishments she helped create with President Biden. Donald Trump seeks to unravel every social, economic, environmental, international, and domestic improvement we have fought for so his billionaire buddies can enjoy another tax cut.
Edward-Isaac Dovere, reporting for CNN, explained:
Kamala Harris has spent much more of her life as a prosecutor than as a senator or vice president — and that is exactly how she is now going to run against Donald Trump. In sessions that were quietly underway at the Naval Observatory even before Joe Biden’s disastrous debate, Harris and her inner circle had already landed on the plan to look past whoever Trump picked as his running mate and focus almost exclusively on the former president.
Mass. Sen. Elizabeth Warren added:
As a former prosecutor, Vice President Harris has a lot of experience holding convicted felons accountable. She was fighting on behalf of abused women. She was in the trenches against giant banks.
No more finger-pointing.
It’s time to line up behind Vice President Kamala Harris, who said in her statement upon President Biden’s announcement he was dropping out of the race:
I am honored to have the President’s endorsement and my intention is to earn and win this nomination. Over the past year, I have traveled across the country, talking with Americans about the clear choice in this momentous election. And that is what I will continue to do in the days and weeks ahead. I will do everything in my power to unite the Democratic Party — and unite our nation — to defeat Donald Trump and his extreme Project 2025 agenda.
We have 107 days until Election Day. Together, we will fight. And together, we will win.
