    Oh she did that for me practically on day one of announcing her candidacy.
    She is obviously intelligent and has very good political ideas.

    But something hit me recently, with George Bush it was said he was the kind of person people would like to have a beer with. Which was allegedly a big reason he won.
    But I certainly see that with Kamala Harris much more. Kamala Harris seems like such a genuinely nice person, who can also have a bit of fun.
    So Kamala if you find yourself in the neighborhood, feel free to pop in, my treat. 😀 🍺

      otoh I like John Cleese’s line. He said he wanted a candidate so brilliant that he, Cleese, would be afraid to sit at the same table, lest he be proven a complete dunce.

          So what?

          I like Ed Koch’s take on different opinions. He said that if you liked him 51% of the time you should vote for hi. If you agreed with him 100% of the time you should see a psychiatrist.

          I think it’s more that today’s American politicians reel it in.

          Clinton was know as a policy wonk, and Obama would go from community organizing to the U. Chicago law school without missing a beat. Even George W. went to top schools.

          Harris could go toe to toe with the best minds out there; she tailored her responses to Donnie’s level.
