Sorry but I lived in NorCal while she was the state AG so have a reasonable view of her capabilities, as do most Californians. . If there was a primary I don’t believe she would have won. And I didn’t see a whole lot of mentoring going on.

A diplomat's passport reveals global engagement far better than partisan debates could ever obscure.

Yes. In diplomacy the learning and knowing is in the doing. Biden prepped Harris well.

I would give her a grade of C+, B- if I was being generous. That’s just not good enough. Plus, she really had no charisma - it all seemed very forced.

That's your opinion which you're entitled to. But your grade is meaningless and incorrect as her diplomatic missions were successful. That's what counts.

Well, that’s your opinion and you’re entitled to it. The fact that Biden did not step down earlier deprived the Dems of the best option. It may have been Harris, I’m not on board with that. And no, I don’t believe the AOCs of the party are the way forward. At least not now.

Oh puhleez. Harris lost because we have a country full of racists and misogynists and democrats who didn't show up on election day. The success of her diplomatic missions is not my opinion but fact based on the results from them. Don't even think of blaming Biden for Democrats fucking up. Pathetic.

The fact that Dems didn’t show up to vote says a lot, don’t you think? Why is that? It boils down to a few things, the message, policies & candidate being higher up the list. Most Americans can’t identify Iowa on an unlabelled map let alone Israel. Diplomatic mission success is pretty low.

Dude, our conversation finished. Dems not showing up to vote is due to numerous things. I'm not a party person. I vote by candidate not party. Choosing between Harris and Trump was a no brainer. Harris was the only sane choice.

...that Joe Biden has the most knowledge and experience in Foreign Relations. That is one way Biden mentored Harris among others. Harris acknowledges this - so should you.
