Vice president-elect Kamala Harris sat down for her first solo interview since the election.
Harris, California’s junior senator since 2017, will be the first woman to ascend to the vice presidency.
“I feel a very big sense of responsibility,” Harris said. “As I said recently, that I will be the first, but I will not be the last. I was raised by a mother who said that to me all the time. ‘Kamala, you may be the first to do many things. Make sure you are not the last.”
Harris’ husband, entertainment attorney Doug Emhoff, will also be the first second gentleman.
'We still have so much work to do to remind our children of every gender that they should not be confined by the limited perception that some may have of who they are and what they can be.”
The interview was done on the campus of Harris’ alma mater Howard University.
Harris said that Monday’s Electoral College vote, which affirmed the Biden-Harris victory over Trump-Pence, was a moment where she thought, “It started to really feel real. I was watching it as the states were coming in with my husband. And we were watching it, and he looked at me, he said, ‘See? It’s happening. It’s really happening.”
“Our democracy is stronger than any one man or woman,” Harris said “It is about the people. And the people spoke.”

We are NOT a 'democracy', airhead.
On Willies Wee Wee ?
lol... he wishes!
True. I don’t think any other president has s & f her way to the top. Maybe Obama.
A couple democrat judges spoke. That’s all it takes now.
Applying her curious sort of “logic” it can be said that Edith Wilson (wife of Woodrow Wilson) was the first. She wasn’t elected to the job either...
NO ONE has ever done less to win the Vice Presidency, so she’s got that record too.
The media won’t criticise her, and anyone else that does, we’ll they’re obviously waycissss. You can’t possibly have standards of competence for a PoC.
First out in the primary, get walloped in the general, then get anointed by fraud that no one must notice. You’re right.
