As of Wednesday, July 31, Breitbart is reporting that the coronation is complete, and Harris will be the sole candidate going into the convention. I suppose there could be a last minute push for another candidate, but we see no signs of that as of yet.
The Democrats don’t seem to have any pro-American candidate with a centrist sense to go up against the far left wacky and deranged left. It’s like the entire Democrat Party has been infected with some sort of evil and villainous disorder. They seem unable to do anything that is right and good. They pretend they only just found out that Biden is unable to carry out his duties. And they want us to pretend with them. It appears that the Democrats (and some Republicans) are disguising themselves as civil servants to advance a foreign agenda with a strict timeline. James Carville is having fits of frustration. He’s saying that Harris is going to get slaughtered, and she needs to be ready for it. Even her campaign aide and the DNC’s compliance manager, Joyce DeCerce, believe Kamala Harris “cannot win this year.”
The first few weeks are crucial for a new candidate. It’s the first impression syndrome she will need to deal with. And it hasn’t been good. She is, after all, the most unpopular vice president in history, scoring less than even Biden. National polling this week shows a 38% chance of her winning the election vs. Trump’s 61% chance.
Whether we call her Border Czar, tsarina, or just plain in-charge over the border, doing absolutely nothing has been devastating to her personally, politically, and professionally. Her extreme past positions are coming back to haunt her. And haunt her, they should. They are left of the left.
Dr. Ben Carson reminded many of us, if not shocked the rest of the country, by noting that her daddy was an avowed Marxist economics professor who taught (or indoctrinated) students at Stanford. Her mother was a lawyer and far-left political commentator. Both her parents were active in the Berkeley-based Afro-American Association, although neither of them were African-American. He is Jamaican, and she was Asian Indian.
The Afro-American Association nurtured those who inspired the Black Panther Party, which was supported by Communist China. It became the model for the Marxist Black Lives Matter organization. Fidel Castro and Che Guevara were the heroes of the group.
Out of the same organization came Donald Warden, aka Khalid al-Mansour, who helped arrange and finance Barack Hussein Obama to attend Harvard Law School.
After college, Harris became the mistress of the 60-year-old married Speaker of the California Assembly, Willie Brown, a well-known communist sympathizer. Marxist interests, such as those of Dr. Carlton Goodlet, owner of The Sun Reporter and other pro-communist newspapers, as well as the Communist Party USA, provided significant financial support for Brown’s position in the California government. After becoming mayor of San Francisco, Willie Brown guided her political career. Thus, Ms. Kamala Harris has spent her entire political life immersed in and surrounded by Marxist ideology. Even mentoring Maoists like Lateefah Simon of the STORM Revolutionary Movement. Kamala Harris still openly supports Black Lives Matter and is still friends with Lateefa Simon and Black Lives Matter Marxist Alicia Garza. Not by chance. She chose and found commonality and a comfortable home with comrades. Professor Harris’ daughter has taken up the mantle, pushing the same Marxist ideology. Her dad would be proud.
She has taken previously firm positions on a number of issues, such as outlawing private medical insurance, and mandating Medicare For All, regardless of its affordability, which she has since retracted. She has taken positions on defunding the police, opposing oil drilling, maintaining an open border, and mass amnesty, all of which she has since retracted. She wants to study Black reparations but is not sure if just checks will be enough. Should we abolish ICE you previously called for, Ms. VP? Perhaps not. Should we implement the mandatory gun buyback program you badly wanted? Perhaps not. Should we grant citizenship to illegal aliens in an effort to increase the number of Democrats? Well, we do need to give them a path to citizenship. Does anyone have faith in this candidate?
I haven’t heard any remorse for assisting BLM rioters in their release from jail, which resulted in the deaths of 19 people and the destruction of significant portions of cities, nor has Harris apologized for her campaign to raise funds to prevent violent criminals from going to prison.
Her stand on crime would only matter as to what side of the political fence you are on. She is indeed a member of the far left—further left than Bernie Sanders.
She now seems to embody the infamous used car salesman, insisting, “Trust me.”
But alas, she’s now backpedaling at full speed, hoping she can convince the voters who are still waking up that she is not the person Republicans say she is.
Her organization is now conducting major damage control, and they are making it worse by the day. Voters don’t respect a politician who will not stand up for their beliefs or positions on issues. She is currently in full retreat and attempting to rebuild her reputation. But it is a lie.
This looks to be a repeat of the 1988 election between Bush and Dukakis, a former governor of Massachusetts. In that election, mid-summer polling put the Democrats 17 points ahead of the Republicans. Attacking Reagan did not help him, to say the least. Neither did his helmeted face with a silly smile on an Army tank, riding around like a child on a carnival ride. He looked totally out of place because he was. By the end of August, Bush was in the lead by 4 points.
Dukakis only won 10 states plus the District of Columbia, winning 111 electoral votes. Bush came away with 426 electoral votes.
Harris has had plenty of interviews, TV appearances, impromptu answers to questions, and official positions that show who she is, but they do not reflect the vast majority of Americans.
This is not some personal vendetta. I don’t care what color she is. I voted enthusiastically for Alan Keyes in the 1996 Republican primary. All I know and care about is what she believes, what she wants, and what she values. And they don’t reflect the America I know and love. Despite what Democrats would prefer, our constitutional republic comprises religious and moral individuals who value, consider, and protect both the majority and minority. Our rights come from God, not man; they are unalienable. We have people in power who want to end this nation as it was founded. The forces of godless Marxism, political correctness, and amoral and perverse sexual appetites are destroying our country. All to end our Judeo-Christian morality and heritage. It has become indisputable. We, along with millions of others, cannot allow that to occur.
What steams my clams is the low standards they give their candidates. Since at least Bill Clinton and Barack Obama, we have witnessed a collaborative effort to alter our country from its lofty position to one where bananas are grown. If we are unfortunate enough to have Kamala as president with the Democrats in power once again, the lipstick will come off. We will face extinction level events, most likely beyond restoration. I say IF because I am very concerned that we will be dealing with massive voter fraud once again. I will delve deeper into this topic in a subsequent piece.
Jill Biden, as well, was totally impressed by the Olympics opening ceremony, calling it SPECTACULAR!
