Vice President Kamala Harris has very much avoided the spotlight thus far in the Biden presidency. In this segment, the Majority Report crew asks: Is it because she's super, super awkward? Does Kamala Harris KNOW that she's awkward? Is she staying in the background intentionally? (Yes.) While her low visibility is almost certainly strategic on her part, it doesn't answer our questions regarding how on Earth this woman can possibly be perceived as the future of the Democratic party.

Emma Vigeland: Somebody who has not been in the spotlight whatsoever at all really throughout the first year of this Biden presidency and in the infrastructure fight is Vice President Kamala Harris. Once deemed the rising star of the Democratic Party by the powers that be, and that was evidenced by the fact that Biden hand-picked her to be the VP when there were a lot of other choices. Even he expressed a desire to have a woman of color as his vice president, and there were a lot of other even more establishment picks that might have been a bit more effective than Kamala Harris. Because she's done nothing... she's never shown any sort of like purchase with voters at a wide scale, she had a short tenure in the Senate. And you hear also rumblings of a lot of dysfunction in her own camp. So she thinks that she's gonna be a viable presidential candidate in 2024, 2028. While that sounds so far away, I have significant concerns because her instincts are terrible. She was asked in a rare media appearance about the results of the elections on Tuesday, and this is what she had to say:
Reporter: Are there messages for the Democratic Party heading into next year's elections based on what you saw in New Jersey and Virginia?
Kamala Harris: I'm going to leave that to the pundits. But I will say this: We had great wins, as well, as obviously what we talked about in Virginia. And I celebrate those. We have Eric Adams in New York, in Ohio we had Miss Brown, Shontel Brown, a great win, and a great... I think what will be a great addition to the United States Congress. So as I said, I supported Terry McAuliffe, but I congratulate Mr. Youngkin. And we will keep doing what we need to do, and on the issue again of voting rights, we're going to keep fighting.
EV: So the two races that she listed there were Eric Adams in New York, you know, the purple New York, and Shontel Brown, which was the race that Nina Turner ended up losing the primary in deep, deep blue Cleveland. These would be the exact races they would be writing off if Nina Turner had won that race and if a progressive had won in the way that they're writing off Michelle Wu, being not necessarily... but some are. Or in the way that they wrote off Ilhan Omar, and the way that they wrote off Rashida Tlaib and the way that they wrote off Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez. Dense blue areas that progressives are winning in now, they're deeming them as significant wins for the Democratic Party. And then she talks about how they're gonna keep pushing on voting rights. Keep fighting. There's no fight to be had unless you reform or eliminate the filibuster. So again, we're having the circular conversation. We're having the same conversation over and over again.
