Tell me HA, does it matter at all to you that both Harris and Clinton got to where they are only because of powerful men they had relationships with? You can try to twist history but you can't change those facts. If Hillary and Harris were capable of getting to where they are on their own they would have to be likable OR they would have to have had their own accomplishments, without the help of a husband or boyfriend. There are plenty of Democrat women who have risen to the top without a man's influence because they are accomplished and they are much more likable.
Trump got to the presidency because he accomplished a lot outside of politics but he wasn't universally liked by Republicans. I couldn't stand him but the more I heard what he wanted to do for the country, the more I liked him. After 3 years of his presidency, I likely him a lot because of his accomplishments.
Obama on the other hand had a resume that lacked real experience that would help him understand how to fix our economy, but he was extremely likable. His likability is what gave him the advantage over Clinton who had much more experience (in Washington anyway). Likability matters even though it shouldn't, it's just a factor that always has to be considered in any election.

I believe she would run for the presidency but I don't think she would do well against candidates with better records. She might wait four years to run like Joe Biden. I do wonder if Biden would have beat Hillary in the Democrat primary. I believe Hillary Clinton would have beat Joe.Rick wrote: Back on topic, is there anyone reading this who thinks Democrats would put Harris up as their next nominee? What has she done in the last 9 months that has changed how Democrats feel about her? With so many more likable women in that party, why is it that the two most unlikable women (Harris and Clinton) have gotten the closest to the big prize?

www.dailywire.com/news/kamala-hires-advi...SeaIZOm-DTEhKjotdT8MVice President Kamala Harris is apparently recognizing how deeply unpopular she is with the American public; reports indicate she has hired two veteran advisers who help craft politicians’ images in order to shore up her image with the American public.
