I really really wanted Kamala as the candidate until

I saw her at the Barr hearing...

Now I want to see her question every single corrupt member of the administration and the GOP until they piss themselves.

Then I want her to run for President.

4. I don't think we're going to have two females on the ticket, realistically.

Just like we're not going to have two white males on the ticket, unless MAYBE one of them is Pete (representing the LBGT community). But I'm not sure even that will fly, since they are still two white males.

She is sharp. She'll destroy trump in the debates.

CA would produce another great democratic senator to replace her.

they have no opportunity to question each other.

She could destroy him, but not by grilling him in a debate.

That's the wrong format.

some voters too disgusted to vote for trump again—perhaps some farmers whose income as shriveled due to tumps tarriffs, or others whose industry has also suffered from tariffs, maybe more white women as in 2018, or Midwesterners in the battleground states.

I think it is quite likely there will be a woman on the ticket, either slot.

She would be, like about every declared candidate minus Gabbard would be a fine President or VP.

I do think we are overdue for a female President. That said, just about any port in a storm other than Tulsi, we need to vanquish Drumpf or if he quits Holy Roller Pence.....anyone who believes the Universe has only been here for 6,000 years.....provably false.....is too gullible and dumb to be President.
