Good question. Her father was but her mother emigrated from India. Her bio doesn't say when but she attended college in Berkeley in the 60s. Kamala was born in 1964. Was Momsy an illegal alien at that time? Unknown.
A lot depends on Trumps true vulnerability. The Rats believe Harris is the one. They won’t put her up against an
incumbent POTUS unless they are sure. They don’t want a failed campaign hanging from her neck. I think 2024 is more likely.
I was just googling it.
All references from four or more years ago say that her mother emigrated to the United States in 1960 to attend Berkeley. In 2017, Harris started telling stories that her mother arrived in 1959. That could be important.
Harris was born in 1964, and her mother arrived in 1960. INS regulations say that one has to be a permanent resident (green card holder) for five years before being eligible for naturalization, or three years if married to a citizen during that time. An internet search shows that Donald J Harris and Shyamala Gopalan were married on July 5, 1963. This means that it is unlikely that Harris' mother was naturalized when Harris was born.
