The statewide races in 2018 showed that the white working class in several states is irrelevant to a Democrat actually winning. It's the larger urban counties and suburban counties that will be decisive and Harris can win those areas.

The right wing hate machine is currently screaming that Kamala Harris slept her way to the top of the political food chain by having sex with San Francisco Mayor, power broker, and CA Assembly Speaker Willie Brown during her time as a prosecutor. The two did date in the early 2000s.

It was the 1990s, and he appointed her to a commission with a good salary.

It's not just the right-wingers, it's the Sanders people as well.

Interesting that she is running with that logo. I mean, it gets the message across, but I can't help but to think too much is happening there.

Brown's the one claiming that, not the "right wing hate machine"

Which is hilarious considering they love how Trump will do any slimy unethical stuff to get power. From lying on his taxes, to the illegal Stormy payments, his scam university, not paying his workers, and Russiagate

People are saying 24K in attendance. Barack Obama's kickoff speech in 2007 had 15K.

You obviously haven't seen the right-wingers on Twitter and that is definitely a hate machine.

I'm liking Harris a lot more because what could piss off the MAGA crowd more than a black woman president who's in an interracial marriage?

The speech has concluded. I swear to God this woman is going to win it all.

If she does, then we're gonna have another four years of Donald Trump.  Fortunately, I doubt she'll be the nominee.  Of course, it wouldn't be the first time Democrats blew a presidential election against Donald Trump by nominating a horrible candidate.   
Harris has some flaws, but to say she is an outright horrible candidate is ridiculous. I'm giving all the candidates a chance, but you can't make all these judgments this early in the race.

She'd get killed in the Midwest and a Democrat who can't win Michigan can't beat Trump.

Minorities make up 8% of the vote in MI, WI, PA. The only state she will trouble with is OH. Dems can win IA.  The Midwest, margin of victory are in DTW, CHICAGI and MLK

She'd lose Michigan, Wisconsin, Iowa, and get steamrolled in Ohio.  I think Harris would win Pennsylvania though (because most Democrats would likely beat Trump by somewhere in the neighborhood of 8-12% there; PA was one of the epicenters of the wave in 2018 which was basically a high Democratic turnout vs. high Trumpist turnout election).

Obama is the same skin color as Harris and he won, plus she is beating Trump in polls

The reasons she won't play well in the midwest have little to do with her skin color Tongue

In this case he's right. Harris accepted $6,000 from Trump when she was investigating Trump University in California, before ultimately deciding not to bring charges. The university shuttered its doors.

That would be exculpatory if she'd given the money away right away, but according to a WSJ article from the October 2016 campaign she only did so (possibly years later) because she opposed his stance on immigration. She also kept a $2,000 from Ivanka:

She gave Donald's money to charity in July 2015, a month after Trump announced for President.

I'd like to note that Harris' campaign chairwoman is the person in charge of crafting a policy agenda (so-called) for Hillary's 2016 campaign.  Talk about failing upward Tongue

We have that for Castro too, but at least Joaquin is an elected official.

Many campaigns do that. It's really about having people you can trust on your campaign.

I saw parts her speech. It was a good speech and I hope she continues to address criminal justice in a proper way.

She's my likely choice as of now.

Maya Harris helped edit "The New Jim Crow" which has become a major point of reference for the Black Lives Matter movement and criminal justice reform activists. This makes me happy.
