President Kamala Harris? She’s making the first moves
Star-Telegram ^ | 5/9/17 | Sean Cockerham

Posted on 05/09/2017 5:54:41 AM PDT by LibWhacker

Now's the time prospective presidential candidates start taking the subtle but crucial behind-the-scenes steps that get them noticed by the political intelligentsia, and Sen. Kamala Harris is quietly following the script.

She’s making speeches to key national constituencies. She’s due for an appearance at a Washington think-tank panel full of chattering-class presidential favorites that the national media will be reporting and analyzing, probably for days. She’s been fundraising for colleagues and making sure that she is forming relationships with key national reporters.

They’re all boxes that prospective presidential candidates routinely check. It’s a chance to ultimately convince insiders they’ve got the gravitas and the fundraising chops to be taken seriously.

Kind of a sign of just how marginal the 2020 election looks for the Democrats.

Kamala Harris is a social justice warrior and dumber than a box of rocks...both are requisites for hold statewide office in California.

Kamala Harris is pretty weak on the “native born” requirement (as though that really matters anymore) - her mother is from India and her father is Jamaican-American ....

The way Democrats look at candidates, I worry she might actually have a chance.

Well, she would definitely be an affirmative action candidate, which means that self-hating white liberals, mexicans, muslims and all blacks would vote her in.

Socialist and a multi category victim (minority woman). I am surprised a gay or a tranny hasn’t stepped forward yet.

Little doubt that camel uh was going to be hoisted up as the first chicanegro fluid gender nominee. She’ll should announce her fluidity soon to get the glbtqxyz votes lining up. She can remain ‘edgy’ by dropping F bombs frequently.

The American communist left (self hating whites, mexicans, blms, etc) will NOT be happy until we elect a Dwayne Elizondo Mountain Dew Herbert Camacho as our president. They just won’t give up until that finally happens.

Democrats are like terrorists: Every one of their new leaders is more horrifying than the last.

HOWEVER...just remember back when George H. W. ("read my lips") Bush had just started the Iraq War and had approval numbers in the 90s. NO serious Dem dared go against him for President, leading the way for one Hillary Rodham to run for President through her puppet, William Jefferson Blythe Clinton>

Bush pulled a Romney before Romney did : when challenged to speak against Clinton and the corruption, scandals, and sleaze that even then swirled around him, Bush père demurred, saying, "Wouldn't be...prudent."

From what we now know of the Clinton machine/war room, I wonder what dirt Bush had on him that he wanted to remain safely hidden.

F*cking coward, traitor, and scum: HE allowed the floodgates of the Clintons, and through his execrable son, allowed Obama.

This is why GOP-e delinda est.
