My two picks were Susan Rice and Kamala Harris. There is less controversy surrounding Harris (although the Benghazi crap is ridiculous it is there) and she is an excellent pick. I'm happy and excited for the virtual convention next week!
Hey, that is good news! Bulldog? I know you are busy these days, but if possible, would you post a few highlights from the virtual DNC Convention? For those of us like me whp might not get to hear it or see it? Please, and thank you.

I am excited too. Hoorah for team Biden & Harris.

Yes Katchen will do!

I just finished watching Rachel Maddow and learned a few interesting things about Kamala Harris that I didn't know.

First, in 2011, in her first year as AG in California, she was working with other states to try to get a settlement from the big banks for the foreclosure crisis for their states. The banks offered a settlement but she turned it down and withdrew California from the negotiations because she said it was too small. She took a lot of heat for it. But then her and Beau Biden (AG of Delaware and late son of Joe Biden) and other AGs worked out a settlement that was much better. Standing firm - reminds me of Nancy Pelosi!

Also, an interesting guest on Rachel's show was a long-time public defender named Niki Solis who faced off against Harris many times. She has written an op-ed and also talked on Rachel's show about how Harris' record as California DA has not been discussed accurately and that Harris is a progressive and she wants to set the record straight even though Harris was on the opposing side of her.

Oh, wow, I did not know that about Kamala Harris at all and thanks so much for sharing what you learned about her.

V e r y Interesting!

So, See? Harris has a good track record on things not readily remembered or were not covered much in the news, years ago. And I like that Niki Solis can attest to her character and how Harris' record as a DA in California has not been accurately portrayed. That's a big deal, not only for Harris, but for other public servants, elected - appointed - or otherwise, who have not been given credit where it is due, etc.

So that is positive news to learn about tonight.

I thank you, as others will most likely thank you too!

I suspect until November gets here, that the battle lines are drawn and that little to no missteps will take place and that nothing but a biggo giant GREEN LIGHT beams brightly for the Democratic Party and for new beginnings under highly qualified leadership of Joe Biden and Kamala Harris.

Indeed, excitement abounds.
