Kamala Harris knows things no vice president has ever known
How do I know this? Because this is Woman 101. It’s the first page of the instruction manual teaching us how we’ll need to navigate the world. I have never met a woman who hasn’t heard this piece of advice. And I doubt that in 232 years of male leadership there’s ever been a sitting president or vice president who has. There is something profoundly moving about the fact that Kamala Harris has walked through the world as a woman. That she has thought, talked, purchased, exercised, sought medical care, sought justice, laughed and bitten her tongue as a woman.

We are informed by our experiences. Our experiences sometimes allow us to fill in the gaps that others have missed.
At some point in Kamala Harris’s life, in January, she may stand on a stage in front of the U.S. Capitol, and she may take the oath of office.
But I can’t stop thinking of all the other points in her life she’ll carry with her.
How someone must have told her, once, to use her keys as a weapon in a parking lot. How something like that shapes you. How it hopefully makes you into a person who never lets anyone walk in the dark alone.

She had to have a strong, supportive mother....and father.
her mom was the main influence behind her strength (her parents divorced when she was young). In her book, "The Truths We Hold," she talks about how much of a force her mom was.
BTW, did you vote yet or are you waiting for the big day? Hope you all are well.
Our future VP was lucky to have such a mom; moms with the right attitude give their offsprings many advantages, especially confidence.
Yep, yep, we voted 2wks ago at the same place your mom did...& it wasn't crowded this time. 
We're ok - hubs is good, still working most all the time.
Hope you folks are good.
Happy to hear you're okay, tell hubby not to work too hard. We're hanging in there.

She and Joe are going to be a huge supporters of women and minorities in America, along with everyone struggling to make ends meet.
