    There is someone who has done nothing for the past four years but be Joe Biden’s understudy. She can slot into the job today, and be able to do it past 8 PM without needing a nap.

    Now if you counter with “I want someone I like!”, well, I can’t help you there. But it seems a bit absurd to suggest we dont have any viable alternative when we elect someone whose entire job description is to do exactly that.

      The problem isn’t whether Kamala is competent enough to be President, it’s that nebulous concept of “electability”.

      Can she do the job of President? Probably. She could almost certainly do better than Trump, as long as she’s not golfing for a full 25% of a Presidential term.

      Can she do whatever the voting public thinks is the job of the President? That’s a much harder question to answer, especially given that (1) she and (2) isn’t white.
