I prefer Warren. She's more progressive, especially on economic issues, and she will appeal to a lot of Midwestern voters.
Kamala has a lot of baggage, unlike Obama who many are comparing her to, so I can't see her winning the nomination or the general election.

In Harris's case, she's a woman who fucked someone with more power and influence than she had to get a leg up a rung or two of the political ladder. So absolutely, in this case, she fucked her way up. To the top is a needless and erroneous exaggeration R10.

They broke up in 1995 before Kamala's career was even seriously getting started. This topic dominated her 2003 run for District Attorney, so it is something she is used to at least.
The appointments thing is silly, Willie Brown ran Bay area politics so he gave everyone their first appointment. Gavin Newsomes career started with appointments by Willie Brown.

The Democrats really need to anticipate this scenario and be ready for the small chance that a different Republican is the nominee.
Hillary’s campaign against Trump is a perfect example of what can happen if you are unprepared for a different opponent than who you were anticipating (Jeb Bush).

Presidential candidates aren't born, they are made. From JFK to Obama (whose copying of JFK's hand gestures was deliberate), they have campaign managers, political consultants, speech writers, etc. who mold the candidate to the image that will get them elected. Any deficiency is relentlessly coached until it becomes an asset.

She’s ‘black’, articulate, childless and has a white Jewish husband - a big turn off for many on the right.

Kamala is a poor speaker and she tends to hide herself behind nonsensical "inspirational" platitudes (see below).
