    Because she isn’t? Sure she’s better than any of the Republicans, but that’s a stupid low bar and doesn’t really tell you much. Her record in California is abysmal, she had zero support in her campaign, and she’s done fuck all since she became VP. She’s essentially a glorified security barrier to stand between the nuclear codes and whatever asshat the Republicans end up shoving in as Speaker in the event that Biden goes the way of all flesh during his term.

    Because she’s a female POC.

    The VP works behind the scenes instead of being the focus of attention. So how does anybody know if she’s ready without knowing the details of what she’s been doing since 2020.

    We can have Trump on the media to lie his ass off for an hour, but we have to clutch pearls about a Harris presidency?

    She’s the reason I wish Biden wouldn’t run again. I think he can beat any Republican candidate, including Trump, but if he has any health issues I’m a lot less confident that Harris can win.

    This is a popularity contest, candidates need some charisma and the common touch, she’s lacking in these areas.
