    President Kamala Harris

    Let's face it, Biden is no spring chicken and there's a good chance Kamala Harris will be POTUS one day.

    What do you think?

    She is a smart lady. well educated, from a good family, was not born with a silver spoon in her mouth, so she knows about being you.
    She seems like a nice person, other than that all I know is what we all see.
    The sooner you fall behind, the more time you have to catch up.

    You do know that Trump(74) is only 3 years younger than Biden (77), don't you?

    And Biden is about half his weight.

    For comparison, Ronald Reagan died at 93 and Bush at 94.

    ^Biden rides a bicycle for exercise. Trump drives his golf cart on the green.

    Kamala Harris has spent her life crashing through glass ceilings and accumulating “firsts”. She was the first female district attorney of San Francisco, the first female attorney general of California, the first Indian American in the US Senate, the first Indian American candidate of a major party to run for vice-president. Soon she will become the first female vice-president. If Joe Biden only serves one term, as expected, there is a chance that in 2024 she could become the first black female president.

    Whilst I would prefer Joe Biden not to keel over in office (on his first term anyway), I think Kamala Harris would make an excellent President.

    I feel Harris compliments the team and will provide a bit of venom when needed.

    Without inferring that Biden is a wuss I believe she will wear the pants if the shit hits the fan.

    I actually asked the Mods to change my 'President Joe Biden' thread to 'President Joe Biden/Kamala Harris' because I have this odd feeling Joe won't make it through the four years.

    Whatever the case, I also believe she'll make an excellent President . . . the first Female and Afro/Indian-American . . . it starts to get complicated after more /s

    She lived in Montreal, Canada as a teenager and went to the same high school as my friend.

    She's smart and is supportive to women and girls from all races.

    I have the same feeling he doesn't make it through 2021, and that he was never intended to.

    So looks like America's first black/Asian woman potus it is, and may gawd bless all who sail under her.

    Maybe they should both be awarded the nobel peace prize, before the shit kicks off; something like 60-40 or 80-20 to Biden, for doing the hard work.

    Too much is Made of her racial and gender background. She is good enough and her only downside is a tendency to be a bit screechy in her vocal delivery. That may seem a bit picky, but presentation is all in today’s world, especially in the US.
    I think she is tough enough, and smart enough.

    If I was going to make a bet my money would be on the orange moron dropping dead before Biden.

    Is that male bias? Do we accuse male politicians of being screechy?

    Well, we make fun of Trump's voice, Obama's speech pattern, Clinton's drawl . . . I don't think it's a bad thing as such . . . but her voice is a bit annoying - and that does NOT distract from her abilities.

    Not really. Mariela Frostrup doesn’t do it, quite the opposite. ��
    As I said, it may seem picky, but presentation counts for a lot in the media, where she need to be an unrivaled success. The last thing she needs is to be called out as a screeching harridan. No worries, it can be trained out of her delivery. ��
    In truth, it shouldn’t matter, unfortunately, it does.

    Indeed, Mindy Kaling is all of those things- but Kamala ain't too bad either.

    How dare you say anything that could possibly be construed as negative about either of them, or any Dem ftm.

    Right, snubby...up periscope!

    And you do realise that she is NOT the president, right? And that i the US political opponents don't disappear or die in mysterious, yet ham-fisted, circumstances like in Russia.

    Wake up, tovarish.

    I don't think she's got a screechy voice and I don't think she needs to change anything.

    She needs to get on with the job and do some good after four years of these arseholes. That's what will define her.
