Vance is not the same as Obama who changed the political scene for the better. forever. If only he was more anti mass immigration and more pro-veteran. Agendas carried to extremes by Santa Joe.

President Biden is extremely pro-veteran, having led the largest expansion of funding for veterans this century. He is also extremely pro law and order on the border. Only the fully concerted efforts of right wing fascist scum like the republicans have perpetuated a lax enforcement and backlog of processing some Americans find so concerning.

There is not much forever in politics.  Social progress and democracy and the rule of law are always vulnerable.

Vance is a lot like the old man he is going to knife in the back, donald trump.

I doubt Kamala wants a union kerfuffle over Mark Kelly.
Her far left California progressiveness does not play well in swing states in mid west union land.

Kelly scares the pants off Red. I like him so much more now.

It does add something.  And a hearty mid west belly laugh at Harris as "Far Left".  She is a Moderate.  Unless asking if there are laws that instruct men what to do with their bodies is "Far Left."  I enjoyed watching her pose that question to Kavanaugh during his Senate hearing, and his reaction.

Trump is a scumbag, and he does not understand California and our relationship with Mexico, and Trump does not understand what the American Dream is all about. And America is a shining city on a hill that needs to be shown and not hidden from view. Even more, we need to put a coat of fresh paint on our ghettos, and we need to clean things up. Trump is a fool for building the wall, he does not understand. Reagan understood, Reagan was a Californian who loved the Mexicans, and the first thing that he did was to make our immigrants legal, he brought them out of the shadows so that they could join labor unions, and so that they could call the police in the case of an emergency, etc.

Harris should completely destroy the wall and make our immigrants legal like Reagan did, and we can invest in Education and Literacy in Latin America, etc, and in the USA and in Canada.

And Beshear supports Education in Kentucky, etc.

Salute,

Tony V.

We have made a lot of progress with Education and Literacy programs in Colombia, and there is Shakira with the Bare Feet Children's Foundation, etc.

In Bolivia they shorten the sentences of the criminals if the criminals read books while they are in prison. I recommended that all of the prisoners read "On Becoming a Person" by Carl Rogers.

And imagine if every youth read "Animal Farm" by George Orwell and learned the lessons from it, and "Othello" by Shakespeare, and "The Count of Monte Cristo" by Alexandre Dumas, etc.

Abraham Lincoln taught himself by reading books.

And they can study Henry David Thoreau, etc.

They can also read the great poetry, etc. And Euclid, etc, and all of the great Greek stuff, etc.

We need to support Education and Literacy Programs everywhere on Earth, including here in Latin America, and in the USA, and in Canada, etc.

Salute,

Tony V.

Well. 
There are career records to sift through on that.
Harris has never been elected anywhere BUT California a solid blue and extreme liberal state, starting in the progressive hotspot of San Francisco. Ergo she has never had to face opposing views.
As a US Senator she questioned a SCOTUS nominee on his membership in the Knights of Columbus. This despite our Constitution provides for religious liberty and a prohibition on religious tests for public office.
She was so out of line the Senate passed a resolution after her questioning to affirm that fact.

Her economic record in the Senate was based on big government and identity politics. She wanted the federal government to send people $2,000 per month for the entire pandemic emergency period,
called for a $15 minimum wage, and supported a bill banning so called price gouging.
She wanted to mandate that the Federal Reserve interview racial minority candidates
and supported the creation of a new agency to assess legislation s climate equity.

Her current position as Vice President is indentity politics on steroids, she is a woman and she is black, the perfect match for Biden in the 2020 election. As a democrat primary candidate, remember, she spent $ 40 million and never captured a delegate.

Why democrats found her way too far to the left.

She promised an executive order to ban assault weapons  a nebulous category that could include firearms protected by the second amendment right to keep and bear arms.
She promised to rewrite immigration laws with executive orders, too, cutting Congress out of its constitutional role in that process.
She threatened another executive action on prescription drug prices by saying, If Congress will not act, I will
She also said she supported prohibiting private health insurance.  215 million Americans have private health insurance.

Her platform was soundly ignored by democrats.

Harris is speaking to a closed fundraiser of her college sorority and ignoring a speech to a joint session of Congress by the head of Israel?
The President of the Senate?( the Senate writes her paycheck)
Who wants to be the President of us all?

Maybe time to think about wearing big girl clothes.

It is inspiring the way Red has ferreted out  SO-CALLED PRICE GOUGING as the harmless chimera we consumers all know it is!

And now identifies the menace of EXECUTIVE ORDERS, the sort of CUTTING CONGRESS OUT that he could not seem to find his words to criticize during the Trump administration.

And thanks be that Red has identified the most egregious form of IDENTITY POLITICS, the condition of being A WOMAN AND BEING BLACK while VICE PRESIDENTING!

Also kudos to Red, who usually shouts SCOREBOARD when candidates raise extraordinary sums of money, by maintaining a monastic quietude while Kamala raised 100 million from small donors in 48 hours following Joes announcement of stepping down.

Milk cartons should start showing pictures of missing facts, as well as children.

She is diverging from Biden and showing support for the Palestinians.  It is what candidates do when they affirm their policy positions.  And recognizing an important segment of their party's base.

Oh she likes  ex Orders because Trump used them.?And She and Joe got hammered for trying them, too? I think you need some more research in that one.

Uh , no.  It was used too MAKE her Vice President after the most embarrassing primary campaign possible. She is the result, prima facie, of identity politics.
