Biden suspected Kamala Harris team of sabotaging rivals during veep search

During a bruising vetting process to name his vice presidential running mate in 2020, Joe Biden wondered whether advisers to Kamala Harris were behind the flood of negative press coverage that engulfed some of her well-placed rivals.

While candidates expect to face heavy scrutiny, the authors of a forthcoming book wrote that “something about this seemed more deliberate, even targeted” as Biden and his advisers searched for a reliable No. 2 who would not hurt his chances in a general election.

The onslaught was “aimed at all of the most formidable Black women under consideration,” wrote Jonathan Martin and Alexander Burns of the New York Times. “[E]xcept for Kamala Harris.”

I have little interest in streamlining government or in making it more efficient, for I mean to reduce its size. I do not undertake to promote welfare, for I propose to extend freedom. My aim is not to pass laws, but to repeal them.

But Crane's withering dismissal did not hold. Harris had a well-placed supporter, with Biden’s close adviser Ron Klain supporting her early on, believing that she was the best person for the job.


   I don't even wonder why he likes her so much.

All of the other VP prospects were as terrible in their own way as Kamala. Not a whole lot of "sabotaging" was needed.

Who were the other black women on his list?
If a political party does not have its foundation in the determination to advance a cause that is right and that is moral, then it is not a political party; it is merely a conspiracy to seize power.     -Dwight Eisenhower-

"The [U.S.] Constitution is a limitation on the government, not on private individuals ... it does not prescribe the conduct of private individuals, only the conduct of the government ... it is not a charter for government power, but a charter of the citizen's protection against the government."     -Ayn Rand-

  • I don't believe in Trump anymore, he's an illusion
They can bitch and moan and try to blame anyone, including Harris, for their bullshit choice but I don't think anyone will buy it. They picked the the worst and stupidest person they could on purpose as defense against the 25th.

Although to be fair, others did receive at least one percent of the vote in the primaries.
