All the people saying Michelle Obama or Kamala Harris should run… America didn’t vote for a white woman, it’s sure as shit isn’t going to vote for a Black woman. This country is too racist and sexist for that.

If you ask me, we need Gavin Newsom and Kamala Harris as VP

I see they’re saying he endorsed Kamala, but that’d be insulting as hell to jump over her to elect a white man for president.

Yeah, it would be. But as much as I love Kamala, this is not a country that respects powerful women and certainly not powerful Black women

But I’m voting blue no matter who. We can’t let that fat, orange bastard win

It's been mentioned that keeping Kamala on the ticket is required if they want to retain all the fundraising money they've already got. I don't know if that would work if Gavin takes over as the presidential candidate or if Kamala would have to be 'upgraded' to that spot. If so, perhaps Gavin could become her VP and hopefully that'll bolster things

I'm Canadian so I don't get a say in this but I am worried as hell about it
