Noooo, Harris is also imperialist and pro Israel. She has not demonstrated to be any different politically speaking. The reality is that those parties (Rep. and Dems) don’t have any candidate who really listens to the people and works for the benefit of its constituents.
I hate the idea of Kamala for president considering her comfort with Israel and that she used to be a cop, but she’s a way better speaker and campaigner than Biden and if she picks a more progressive VP she might actually have a solid chance. At this point we really just need to make sure Trump doesn’t get into power again. Kamala stands a better chance against Trump than Biden
Are you sure of Harris' appeal? From my understanding, and observation, the VP isn't very popular. If the Dems are determined to make a change, wouldn't they have to open the upcoming convention and see who emerges as a ticket? I don't think Harris is the consensus choice. Biden is afflicted with the same ailment that RBG, Diane Feinstein, and to a lesser extent Nancy Pelosi suffered: inability to call it a career and exit the stage.
The case for Harris is not compelling. She might have a better position on Gaza but that doesn’t mean she is formidable candidate with a solid chance of winning. Far from it. We need a new slate.
And the evidence for "She might have a better position on Gaza" is the whisperings of insiders, unattributed, printed in Politico. You can't grasp at a thinner reed than that.
The only politicians that will get my support coming next Nov. are those who have stood and spoken against this genocide. My conscience does not permit me to be voting and following anyone that was complicit in this genocide.
I want to agree, but punishing Biden isn’t just punishing Biden. You’re potentially opening the door to a fascist presidency and dooming those hurt by the genocide already as well as most other minorities in the US
Biden’s is a fascist presidency! The body count in GAZA is proof of that. And he and Butcher Blinken just keep lying about Israel’s war crimes. Hopefully, some other countries will step in to help the Palestinian people because the US isn’t going to no matter who sits in Washington. All the democrats have are scare tactics. People can refuse to bow to their lies and demand change. Besides, Trump wants to pardon himself. He doesn’t care about Israel or Gaza. He is horrible but in my opinion, Biden is worse. Trump is a stupid liar. Biden is an evil liar. Big difference.
There is no indication that Harris has a better chance, and much that she doesn't. Despite armchair gerontolgy and ageism, Biden continues to inspire more trust than any current alternative. Short of definitive and chronic disability to do the job , a switch now would be suicidal.
I highly disagree. People are tired of white old men calling all the shots. His debate performance hurt him deeply. As a person of younger demographics, him stepping down for fresher blood would inspire people more
You do have a good following and I wish you would not encourage/endorse Kamala Harris or anyone from the Biden camp unless they have openly criticized Biden’s policy for Israel.
Yes, if we're going to claim someone is better than Biden on Israel/Palestine, is it too much to ask for a single public statement from them indicating that?
Joe Biden did not pick whiner Harris as V.P. cause he thought her qualified to be Pres... only political convenience...the only solution is an open, brawling, bare knuckles Democratic convention!!!
Not at all. Not Harris. She’s quite incompetent herself, not an international or presidential allure or material. And very Zionist, aipac funded, she’s the same views on the Genocide as the two thugs of Biden and Trump, let aside she’s married to a big Aipac Zionist IsraHell fanatic. She would do a terrible job on all fronts, domestic and international. Quite surprised by your view on this subject Mehdi, almost disappointed I dare say.
I keep seeing inferences to Harris’s hubby being a Zionist. I’m just wondering where this information comes from. Did a search and could only confirm that he is indeed quite Jewish as is Naomi Klein. In no way is she a Zionist. I found this at the end of his Wikipedia page:
“ In the context of reactions to the 2023 Israel–Hamas war, Emhoff expressed concern about antisemitism in schools and on college campuses. He highlighted that conflations of Jewish identity with the actions of the Israeli government had led to increased hostility and threats against Jewish people.[41]”
I looked and still couldn’t find anything specifically related to Zionism with Emhoff. But, I did turn up that Kamala has spoken at the annual AIPAC conference twice and that J Street does not support her. So there it is.
Oh Mehdi! So disappointed to hear you quote Obama AND evince any enthusiasm for the idea of Kamala Harris as a replacement for Biden!
First of all, Obama was a hypocritical charlatan masquerading as a progressive, and that miserable quote epitomized the attitude that the public should always love and support a flagrantly un-democratic system because that’s what we’ve been “groomed” by the system to do throughout our lives….
Kamala Harris had serious baggage in her career prior to being chosen as Biden’s running mate in 2020, and her performance as VP left little sense of progress from that point. She and Biden are both representative of the same hypocrisies the establishment Democrats embrace regarding their “democratic” philosophies, all the while being only marginally superior to the Republicans and being part of a system now so very intent on denying the actual democratic process of choice. “Nothing will fundamentally change”—remember Biden’s statement?
Kamala Harris is a train wreck. She might have a better view on Gaza, but that’s not what Americans are likely to care most about when choosing their president.
I think Pete Buttigieg is good, but I’m doubtful the American electorate will recognize his potential.
Either way Trump will win if the democrats don’t submit a better candidate.
"Either way Trump will win if the democrats don’t submit a better candidate."
It's such a privilege to share this platform with so many people who can see into the future. I used to think this was a rare thing, you had to be someone special, like Nostradamus, but no, turns out all you need to develop perfect foresight is a Zeteo subscription.
Sorry, but Harris is not up to the job. There has to be a way out for Biden that allows others to be considered. Otherwise, better that Biden have one good debate, and then focus on Trump's issues.
Biden was never supposed to run again. He was LOSING before the debate. The debate exposed age related DEMENTIA, and that has been seen for the last 18 months. He will absolutely loose to Trump. Robert Kagan wrote 2 articles on this, European leader see this, WHY CAN'T THE DEMOCRATS. Most Americans know it too. There is nothing to loose finally doing what needs to be done, get in someone who at least has a to chance to change trajectory of this election.
In the Democratic Party we have better and more formidable candidates than Kamala Harris. Let me give you a few
Gov Whitmer MI
Gov Newsom CA
Senator Sherrod Brown, Ohio
A ticket of Whitmer/Brown ensures Democratic victory in Nov
These have literally no baggage of any consequence and hopefully they would get rid of many in the WH who control the narrative on Israel which has costed us our international standing and moral high ground.
These three prospects would have the ability to work with the Republican party and get things done.
"A ticket of Whitmer/Brown ensures Democratic victory in Nov"
Another Zeteo commenter who can see the future with perfect foresight. Why don't you people ever give me something useful like which stocks to buy? You'd think people who had the unerring ability to predict the future would use it to greater advantage.
If only I would have the expertise in the stock market, I would but in this case you would have two swing States locked with 15 in MI, 17 in Ohio, You would also be able to work PA with 19 and WI with 10 electoral votes. That would give Democrats at least 285 electoral votes. With Biden Harris ticket we are looking at 245 (not enough to win.

Exactly. And you are correct about Harris. She is a nonstarter.

I’m there with you.

I would have to agree with that statement.
Well, you should use reliable sources for research. Wikipedia isn’t.

No She most likely will lose and not the right candidate

Amazing! You even know the electoral vote totals! I wonder why we even bother with the election.
