A very good choice. Good-luck to them.
Those like good businesses
She will be first female black President of the USA. Remember Obama said...aaah! what a beautiful woman Kamala is". And he was almost chewed alive.
Great duo that will definitely shut out Trump’s bid! Great balance of power & gender representation! #VOTE!
I think Michelle Obama was a better choice. Kamala Harris tried to be president and failed.
But Michelle didn't even try. Is that what makes her better?
She did not fail like Ms Harris
Congratulations to Kamala she has what it takes
Well done JBiden that’s a good choice for that post
