Biden's VP Choice

   It has been recently announced that Kamala Harris was chosen to be Joe Biden's running mate in the upcoming 2020 election. Harris is a California Senator and a former prosecutor. Her work in the field of law was, in a nice way, questionable. She worked to keep convicted prisoners in jail even AFTER they were found innocent of the charges against them. She also has failed numerous times to hold California police accountable for their misconduct. A "progressive prosecutor" she was not.
   
   This reveals one thing in this election, it is a lose-lose situation. We have a hot cheeto looking to be re-elected and a man who questioned the legitimacy of the Black community seeking to be elected. If I choose to lose, I don't want my loss to end up resulting in a human sweet potato sitting in the White House.
   
   Thoughts on Kamala Harris?

      Oh, what a wonderful gal ...
      She stands for so many great things:
      Things that will allow illegal aliens into the country, tripple-high taxes, medicare for all, defunded and diminished police forces,
      sanctuary cities, fewer gun rights, and who knows what else.
      
      Does Joe?
      
      Poor Joe
      
      Poor us.

      If you're a progressive, there is only one choice - Biden/Harris. No candidate is perfect. They all have issues. But if you can get 80% of what you want, that's better than none.  To those who say there are no differences between the parties, look at the Supreme Court.  Exhibit A.
      
      Many disagree on your evaluation of Harris, here's just one example::

   According to the local news, Biden's list of potential running mates was composed solely of women.  They didn't say, but I would suspect that black women comprised the majority of the list, with other minorities filling it out.
   
   It's a sad day when sex, and/or race, determine who is chosen - when those things take priority over ability.

   She couldn't be a worse pick. It seems odd he would pick her. Like, "Please, please don't vote for us. Trump and Pence are fine, doing a good job, just let them continue onward."
   We have nothing positive to bring to the table. If you hate trump that much, go ahead and vote for us, but you will regret it."
