How many VPs became President in America?

Late on Sunday morning, Vice President Kamala Harris summoned a small clutch of her closest advisers and allies to the Naval Observatory, where she lives and works, with little notice and even less information. President Biden had informed Ms. Harris earlier that morning that he was withdrawing from the race. The vice president had assembled her team so that the exact moment Mr. Biden formally quit, at 1:46 p.m. — one minute after the president had informed his own senior staff — they were ready to go.
Time was of the essence. A sprawling call list of the most important Democrats to reach had been prepared in advance, according to two people with knowledge of the situation. The vice president, in sneakers and a sweatshirt, began methodically dialing Democratic power brokers.
“I wasn’t going to let this day go by without you hearing from me,” Ms. Harris had said over and over, as day turned to night, according to five people who received her calls or were briefed on them.
She phoned past Democratic presidents, many of her potential rivals — including Govs. Gretchen Whitmer of Michigan, JB Pritzker of Illinois and Josh Shapiro of Pennsylvania — the Democratic congressional leaders, Senator Bernie Sanders, the heads of the various influential caucuses and other top Democrats, a person with direct knowledge of the call list said.
The blitz demonstrated exactly the kind of vigor and energy that Mr. Biden had lacked in recent weeks. Mr. Biden had reportedly made 20 calls to congressional Democrats in the first 10 or so days after the debate, while his candidacy hung in the balance. Ms. Harris made 100 calls in 10 hours.
At the same time that Ms. Harris was dialing, a new whip operation was set up to wrangle delegates who will ultimately..

Yes. How could I forget.
She is an elected VP in the Biden regime. She was on the ticket. She is by no means as clean and fresh as their propaganda apparatus wants us to believe. Biden’s failures are her’s too. Afghanistan, spy balloons, all that is fair game against her. Let her have it.
Took command at the helm of the Titanic (hopefully)
This is the new “Kamala is Brilliant” narrative.
What a sh*t show. They the party isn’t going to allow their voters decide but expects them to still just vote for her?
She is not popular at all with their base. This is queuing up the biggest fail in a POTUS election ever.
Democrats are a threat to democracy.
“”in sneakers and a sweatshirt,””
Nothing I care to imagine!!!!!!
Yep. The machine moved. She hasn’t worked that hard in her life.
Even BLM isn’t on board.
More like she was handed “command” by the party.
Default choice
No, she didn’t. Party leaders did this even while saying they wanted a bottom up coup.

But they got a ‘heels up’?
“”in sneakers and a sweatshirt,””
Nothing I care to imagine!!!!!!

I hope there was more.
This is an extremely bad community theater play where the audience wildly applauds and gives over-the-top compliments even though they thought it pathetically sucked.
The drama and the coronation in the old media continues. From clueless and embarassing putz to glorious and dynamic Queen Kamala in just 48 hours. And it will get worse and worse.
We are not worthy we are not worthy . . .
hardly
only in her dreams
the rank and file strong dislike her
if the DNC ruling elite want to hold onto power (and they DO) they will select new faces to run for both POTUS and Veep
(without any of the negatives that Ineligible Harris or the rest of their “big politico names” have)
we will see.
I really think the DNC will select new people as the cost of securing their installation into the jobs will be far less than trying to force Harris and some other disliked D politician down the voters’ throats.
but yes, we will see
I am not a political expert, not by far

Ha ha ha ha ha ha. Tee hee hee hee hee hee. Ha ha ha ha. Don’t forget that yesterday is tomorrow’s two days ago and tomorrow is today’s tomorrow and the day before two days from today, or……
Yep, a real leader.
“When your party controls all of the MSM, you can do damn near whatever you want to do. The media is not only running cover for you, but they are promoting whatever you want to put out there.”
Yep. Whatever narrative or spin you want is carried and amplified.
