Harris / Whitmer would be a losing combination. Many Americans may be ready for a woman president -- America = the Electoral College and is not ready. [FYI: Whitmer isn't a woman "of color." Maybe you knew that and put her into the mix as a woman.]

The reason Whitmer is a strong candidate is not by virtue of her skin color or gender, it's because she is a strong leader. I don't know why there is so much confusion about DEI, it's simply choosing the strongest candidate regardless of race or gender. We are seeing women & women of color stepping up as we want to see any leader do, most of us aren't going to choose them based on anything other than competence. We need competent leadership. Full stop.
". . . most of us aren't going to choose them based on anything other than competence." Really? Then how did we end up with Trump? Can't argue with needing competent leadership, but we're not going to get it now if women are the nominees. They may be the most competent, but they're not electable. [I do think Trump was a DEI "hire": Dumb, Egotistical, Incompetent.]
Haha so true. Please see election truth alliance on bluesky, they have heaps of evidence from experts and chief statisticians that the election was rigged by musk and Russia. Lots of verifiable proof, charts, articles and podcasts. Also voter suppression caused millions of votes to be lost - see Vigilante Inc doc that details it all. It's an excellent doc only 60 mins really worth watching
We ended up with the felon for a number of reasons, one was lack of strategy, but I don't think the entire answer is in that. People act from emotion. Aggressive emotions were successfully triggered, but I believe knowing the truth that we are humans that have to work together is stronger. It's a truth more powerful than any strategy. Success will be in owning that knowing, not playing to a demographic, appeasing prejudice. Success isn't in being the most righteous victim or perceived authority, it's in authentic leadership skills. May the best person for the job win.
DEI and woke have been weaponised by trump and GOP. Just more reasons to hate the dems and the libs. Just to keep us all confused overwhelmed and hating each other so no one is actually watching to see what these politicians are doing. So we don't notice the tax breaks they give the rich in the middle of the night. They've been setting this up for years now
If a woman or any minority (or anyone who’s not white and male) can’t win the presidency in 2024, it’s says a lot about our country. Saying someone needs to wait for their time is just wrong
Sure, saying someone needs to wait for their time is wrong. Ex: Biden should have been the candidate in 2016, but someone decided it was Hillary's turn. But there's a difference between being a good candidate and being an electable one. If the Blues want to get back into a position where they have some sway, they're going to have to put up ELECTABLE candidates and work from there. Taking the high road won't necessarily get you where you want to go -- or need to be.
Yes. You have hit the nail on the head. I feel American Politics has reversed 70 years. it is not about being a good candidate it is now about being electable. Getting traction- getting unity we have slid down the slippery slope reaching this point in time.

If they have heaps of verifiable evidence that's good enough to take to court, what are they waiting for?
Hah! Good one.

Bernie sanders should have been President 2016
