I'm ready to call our sister in the movement for justice Madam Vice President Kamala Harris
CNN ^ | 6:46 PM ET, Sat August 1, 2020 | Ben Crump

The case for me is simple: She's been a change agent at every level of government -- local, state, and federal -- for 30 years. She has been a trailblazer for reform-minded prosecutors nationwide. She is the only Black woman in the US Senate, and just the second in our history. And having watched her skewer witness after witness testifying at Senate hearings, I know exactly who I want to see go toe-to-toe with Mike Pence.

The truth is, Harris has been unraveling broken systems and confronting injustice since long before most people knew her name. And as someone who spends nearly every waking hour fighting these very systems -- believe me when I say we need more fierce allies in positions to drive change from the inside.

It's tempting at times for those of us outside the government to apply purity tests on those fighting systems from within. But I've been at this for a while. What I know is that amidst the fraught forces swirling inside our systems and this country, Harris is a force for good. She is exactly the type of leader we need alongside Joe Biden to help us through what comes next. The three women who should be at the top of Biden's

Still, for anyone stuck on whether a prosecutor or attorney general can lead on justice reform, I say: check the record. I did.

As a civil rights activist, a sworn defender of justice, a Black man, and a proud dad, I can only hope that this January I get to teach my little girl the proper greeting for Kamala, our sister in the movement for justice: Madam Vice President.

If it’s from cnn it has to be truth. After all, Facebook flags all conservative posts as “misleading” then uses CNN, MSNBC or NYT as the source to prove our Facebook posts misleading and tells us that because of it our exposure will get throttled back and warns us that if it continues our account will get suspended.

I do wonder whether Pence is too much a gentleman to spike her lies and invalid premises?

Her origins.. and her entire political career (Canada, etc)— belie her agenda and this monumentally destructive demonRAT party’s intent to have joey boy as a mental deficient place holder for a Veep who COULD NOT EVER BE ELECTED. Who ran an atrocious campaign, and... we should listen to Willie Brown— who knows. But the dnc is run by crazed desperate loonies who will destroy this country.... to keep power.

Activist conservatives... ramp up. Get involved, we cannot let this happen.

she is one of those who will do anything to be in control so she can control all she can ... and take advantage at every step.
