California Sen. Kamala Harris has made an unusual fundraising move that is sure to fuel speculation about her prospects to be Joe Biden’s running mate on the Democratic presidential ticket.
Harris, who dropped out of the White House race in December, has set up the kind of arrangement with the Democratic National Committee that is typically reserved for nominees trying to attract large donations from the party’s biggest boosters.
Harris, 55, will host her first virtual fundraiser Thursday under the new agreement. It allows contributors to give the maximum of $357,800, with $2,800 going to retire Harris’ presidential campaign debts and the rest going to the national party.
The senator and the DNC filed paperwork for the arrangement Wednesday with the Federal Election Commission, in the first deal of this kind for Democrats this election cycle. Biden and the party chairman, Tom Perez, had been hesitant to enter into the arrangement while Vermont Sen. Bernie Sanders was still actively campaigning against Biden.

Three Nationality Harris is not a natural born citizen.
Natural born citizens have only ONE nationality, that’s why they are NATURALLY citizens.
I don’t see too many getting excited about ole Round Heels.
They call her “Heels Up Harris.”
I think Biden should take Kamala Harris as his VP.
No pick is going to bring him enough electoral votes to win the presidency but with Kamala he can at least get (whoops, don’t wanna be banned)
There seems be a tradition to pick a VP even more loathsome to your opponents than you are. Assassination insurance.
Little Miss “I was that girl” is going to jump on the Biden bus, eh?
Yup. She’s a slut.
Absolutely, she would. She would be one medical episode with Biden away from being POTUS.
That ship sailed in 08
I bet she was more fun than a barrel of monkeys
In Joe’s mind, she’s sniffable. In Kamala’s mind, he’s snuffable.
Oh ‘grate’. Another ABW.

EXACTLY-——
Neither of her parents—one from Jamaica & one from India were USA citizens when she was born.
Neither one was a citizen until 5-6 years later.
We got snookered by Obama-—who ONLY had one parent who was a USA citizen. His father was a British subject who was in Kenya.
He should NEVER have been in the White House.
Those who know the rules and have the $$ & power to challenge her eligibility have to STOP Harris in her tracks.
As you say... Heels-up Harris is ineligible
Are people really paying that much to see her naked?
Harris is obnoxious as hell.
Even some dems don’t like her.
If he picks Harris he will have found someone who doesn’t mind a grope...
The Constitution is just a piece of paper if it has no meaning.
