SACRAMENTO — California Sen. Kamala Harris should never have run for president in the first place.
Her ambition far exceeded her ability.
She hadn’t yet established herself in the U.S. Senate. And she hadn’t exactly excelled in her previous job as California’s attorney general.
There wasn’t much of a record worth bragging about on the campaign trail.
After being elected to the Senate in 2016, she should have spent the next three years focused exclusively on representing Californians in Congress, helping the state on such vital issues as water development, environmental protection, healthcare and homelessness.
But people around her — political advisors and her sister Maya Harris — convinced Kamala Harris she could be a female Barack Obama and be elected the first woman president. And wouldn’t it be a kick to be the Democrat who brought down President Trump?
In Harris’ case, she rocketed to the top tier of candidates early, then plummeted to the ground, discarded and her campaign broke.

They did a pretty good job overworking Kamal; they got her to stop cackeling and she did a really good job reading the teleprompter.
She's checked most the DEI boxes, so what more is required to get 180 million votes?
The energy 81 represents includes the ideas of philanthropy, efficiency, and investigating new ways of doing things. It is worldly and sophisticated and has a global consciousness. Further, it tends to build things with a long-term benefit to society and to all of humanity.
It resonates with justice, human welfare, balance, and self-determination.

Vice President Kamala Harris needs 1,976 Democratic delegates to clinch the party's presidential nomination — and she's surpassed this number in delegate endorsements as of Monday night, according to an AP survey.
Why it matters: Although the delegates who have endorsed Harris are not bound to her, it's the latest sign that she is on track to shore up the party's nomination with ease.
Just over 24 hours after Harris officially launched her presidential campaign, more than 2,200 delegates from over 30 states had endorsed the vice president as the Democratic nominee.
s the article in this thread's opening post describes, 2020 Presidential candidate Kamala Harris soared to the top of Democratic field like a rocket (July 2019), and 4 months later, crashed and burned(November 2019), due to not having a "vision" for the country. Lots of energy, but no ideas that resonated with Americans.
Is Kamala looking a repeat, here in 2024?
