Harris might have taken a cheap shot at Biden in the first debate, but I am confident that he's a big enough person to choose her as his running mate.

Or he’s had a series of debilitating strokes.

Regardless, this is like watching a schoolyard bully go up against Bruce Lee.

Kamala’s intellect is sharp and fierce and she swats away mendacity with skill and grace.

Over the last two years.

I’ve not followed her closely, and I’ve had one of two times where she hasn’t met my expectations in her present office.

But I can tell you that that impression is changing. I thought she needed another few years of the Senate to bring her to greater exposure to the American public, and to prepare her in case she wanted to serve higher office.

But what I am seeing in the last month or two is showing me she is further along than I thought.

I am very impressed by her now. I think she would make a good running mate for Joe, OR a good executive for a Cabinet position. Not sure what to give her, though.? I think she would do well in several Cabinet positions, or VP.

Maybe Labor? Or Dept of Justice?

What other Cabinet jobs would she be great in, and why?

California's top prosecutor for several years and knows how to get around the bullshit. She would be a great VP though...

Doesn't he know that their meetings are public meetings or he does know but is too stupid to know she will call him out on it? Of course, he doesn't care because he knows that trump's minions don't care what she says and only hears what he says.

The most striking thing about this to me was the total contrast between the two. Can there be a better illustration of what we are as a country at this point in time? Mr. Cornyn .... old slow and as pasty bindingly white as you can get. Ms Harris .... young fast and multi-ethnic. Which one better represents out nation?
