What's the problem with Kamala Harris?

107. I've noticed that, too.

Her vocal tone is sort of nasally, and she would benefit from a vocal coach. A lot of voters are swayed by things like that, that have noting to do with policy or looks. Voice hits people on a visceral level, and anything that remotely sounds like talking down, or could be interpreted that way, will turn people off.

Should the worst happen to Joe, I have no doubts about her ability to take over. That might be how we get our first female president, and when people see no major differences, public perception that previously had concerns about a woman in power would likely shift.

But I think our party would benefit from a contested primary after Joe. If it looks like Harris would not win at the top of the ticket, she will have to make a tough decision: to bow to polls or stay and fight.
