Progressive Politics

It's been 8 hours and you've already got a lot of replies. I wanted to offer something that isn't rooted in symbolism and political identity but just disregard if you feel like it's already clear:

Kamala's the latest in a procession of DNC leaders who already had jobs in presidents cabinets. That gives them experience and sounds great until you look at who those presidents were. Then you realize that for the last decade we've just been running the same guy spiritually since Obama left office and the US has no hope of ever growing beyond bombing brown people and pardoning pedophiles.

Add on that Harris' predecessor was segregation-era architect of inequality and overpolicing in his career, and that she basically replicated his carceral strategies in her home state before ever working with him. It starts to be obvious that this procession of leadership would never be trusted with presidential power if they weren't the only alternative to TurboHittler. It's manipulative.
