The Democratic donor class is abuzz about Kamala Harris after the freshman California senator was feted this weekend at an event in the Hamptons surrounded by top fundraisers.
The Bridgehampton event, where Harris mingled with top donors and supporters of Hillary Clinton, was the ultimate signal that Harris is “thinking much bigger” than the Senate, one top bundler said.
ADVERTISEMENT “She’s running for president. Take it to the bank,” another fundraiser said. “She’s absolutely going to run.”
Donors say Harris is giving them a glimmer of hope when they need it the most.
They see the former prosecutor-turned-California attorney general as embodying the qualities a Democratic presidential candidate would need to win the White House in 2020.
They also see the 52-year-old African-American woman as a fresh face.
“There’s a big hunger out there for somebody new and different,” said Bill Carrick, a Democratic consultant who served as an adviser to former Rep. Loretta Sanchez (D-Calif.), who challenged Harris in last year’s senatorial race.

The collusion within the DNC in the election shows how that party picks its candidates. Warren will suffer an embarrassing and politically fatal scandal before any debate takes place.
They tried a white female.
Next they will try a black female.
If that doesn't work they will try a black cross-dressing she-male.
If that doesn't work they will try a black cross-dressing , illegal alien, muslim she-male.
They figure sooner or later they will find the perfect candidate who is the walking, talking embodiment of every victim-hood characteristic they have invented.
Maybe not if she gets the questions in advance.
One thing is true here. Kamala Harris has more Indian blood that Fauxahontas. The 2020 Democratic presidential race will certainly be entertaining with Fauxahontas, Hillary and Harris clawing away at each other.
So, she is about as African-American as Alexander Hamilton.
kamala harris with keith ellison for vice president.
“A lot of us around here predicted this when she was elected to the US Senate.”
I predicted it before then.
Oh, a “dot” indian and not a “feather” indian.
Were her parents US citizens when she was born?
Not only another NWA (like Obama), but female to boot. All the defects of Herself have been addressed and corrected, except one.
Outside the “Blue” enclaves she will have virtually no name recognition.
Obviously she needs a bunch of oprah exposure.
So is she Hindu or Voodoo?
Libs love weird names like obama kamla
At least the DNC is saving time and money by not wasting it on a primary with a predetermined outcome. That is progress.
“They also see the 52-year-old African-American woman as a fresh face.”
SHE IS NOT “African-American.”
She is the daughter of a Tamil Indian mother and a Jamaican-American father.
You say this as if facts matter. They don’t”.
Maybe they could run her as a ‘frickan-American’.
Democrats finally going full blown Marx/Lenin.
The article states “what little people know about her, they like”.
Do people know she got her political career being the mistress of Willie Brown, the most corrupt politician in California history and 31 years her senior? In exchange for her affections Willie gave her a couple of political graft jobs on various state boards with little work but high pay. She was even brazen enough to attend Brown’s 60th birthday party saying she was his “date”, even though his wife was in attendance.
If she is ever going to run for President she probably figures 2020 would be her only chance thinking Trump could not exploit her tawdry past the way other candidates could but she would be wrong about that.
Great. A Humabama. Hollary must be so confused as she gazes on her replacement. She doesn’t know whether to hump it or have it killed?
