That is, she identifies as the prosecutor.
Much of the speech (at least the part I listened to) was about her experience as a prosecutor, and a prosecutor comes to court not as an individual but — as it says on the court documents — as The People. Introducing herself in court, she would say "Kamala Harris, for the people." To adopt that standard phrase as her presidential slogan is an interesting move.
Harris's entire career — until she became a U.S. Senator — was as a prosecutor. She has been a Senator for two year.
ADDED: I’d written one year, but it’s two.

If she can fuck Willie Brown, it should be no trouble at all to do the rest of the country
Who is she so determined to prosecute as President? Lets assume that she reappoints Eric Holder as AG.
How sharp is the line between "prosecute" and "persecute" in Harris's mind?
How many does that make? Lefties liked the metric 'clown car' in the last election cycle. I bet they won't this time around.
Her opponents in the Democratic Party are going to have to go after her quickly, I think- else she is going to run away with the nomination before the first primary is run. It is going to be interesting to watch the infighting in the media on the Left.
She, like most democratics, desire punishment for the people.
We all love prosecutors
because we all take their plea bargains!
She should run on the Marion Barry crackhead premise
Only an abuser of the legal system can reform it!
The only question that really matters is, who does the DNC want?
Because anyone with half a brain knows they aren't going to let the people pick their candidate. They will collude with the media, who are our betters, and make sure the people choose the right candidate.
I thought Willie Brown was her only client.
She is the Female Obama except that she actually held a real job, as opposed to him.
Who will be the Dem candidate who will hit Harris as the flip-side of the #metoo movement.
Brown just came out and said he advanced her career while the "dated.". He was 30 years older and placed her on two powerful commissions.
Because you know Trump will go there. He'll paint her as the woman every woman hates. She'll steal your job, your promotion and your man.
Who -if Harris wins nom- has the inside track to vp?
Which people?
Willie Brown is the smartest Democrat in the history of California but even he did not Anticipate how vindictive she could be.

Yes. My first thought as she smiled and waved and laughed and waved was that the husk of Elizabeth Warren has no chance in this race.
I gave up in the middle of the speech though with the litany of malaise. I know the base demands to hear it, but it's totally uninspiring.
She would give you the shirt off her back, if you could advance her career.
The yellow has to go.
It's almost Corazon Aquino yellow, but yellow is unreliable. Depending on the screen, goldenrod can look like acid.
Career prosecutor does not seem a natural fit with the Democrat party. Will be interesting to see if black and female are enough to over come her history as a prosecutor to get the nomination.
For The Pipple.
Medicare for all = punishment for those in need life saving treatments or corrective joint replacement. Long waits. More death.
Remember - the insider government whores get really sweet medical. The rest of us, not so much.
It's her election to lose
From AFROPUNK comes word that Kamala Harris may not be a hometown favorite in Oakland:
A couple months ago, I was chillin’ at my potna house watching football. During a commercial break, we started talking about Kamala Harris — and my potna’s older cousin shouted, “Kamala Harris! She been lockin’ niggas up at Renee (referring to the Oakland courthouse) since way back in the day and was doin’ it with a smile on her face.” He wasn’t wrong. Kamala Harris has spent her career as the district attorney of Alameda County, San Francisco, and as the Attorney General aka The Top Cop of California.
As someone from the Bay Area and living in Oakland, I am constantly reminded of her history of locking up Black people in the Bay Area. Her track record consists of terrorizing Black communities through the prison industrial complex and she has consistently shown herself to be an enemy to the masses of Black people.
She is a long-term member of California's version of the Chicago political machine. She's a hack.
"For the people" is about as uninformative and vague as is possible in the English language. It is however, pretty damned arrogant. Does she even know, let alone care about the half of the country that voted for Trump? I think she hates us people.
Who exactly is against the people?
Michael K,
Are you referring to
"The difference is that Harris is the only one who, after I helped her, sent word that I would be indicted if I “so much as jaywalked” while she was D.A."?
After initial impression thinking that meant vindictive, I've begun to think he threw that out to show her "law & order" cred...i.e. "She's tough"
But what's her "law & order" take on sanctuary cities..now sanctuary states?
The only candidate who has done anything for Mattress Girl is Kirsten Gillibrand, who invited her to attend a State of the Union address.
Kamala Harris has not done squat for Mattress Girl -- who is one of The People.
I wonder whether Harris ever has discussed Mattress Girl with anyone at the Kasowitz Benson & Torres law firm.
So she's going to prosecute me if elected. Good to know.
Now that HIllary wants it so bad, I wonder if Harris will bow out?
Given the state of the world, might the US wish to elect someone who has more foreign policy experience? China, the EU crack-up, Putin, Iran, North Korea, Venezuela, etc. Ms. Harris is an expert on US and California criminal law. Speaking as an attorney, this is not the best background for dealing with the many international issues we face today and in the near future.
(of course fucking her is a "difference"..unless he's equal opportunity in that respect)
Hey, she wore her knees to the bone getting where she is today!
She has an even number of toes, too.
Her first career was putting black and brown folks behind bars, so she's not all bad.

Kamala "Prosecutorial Misconduct" Harris. Let's see her take the DOJ out for a spin, or, "Eric Holder, hold my beer."
Harris's entire career — until she became a U.S. Senator — was as a prosecutor. She has been a Senator for one year.
And not much of a senator, given the takeaways from the Kavanaugh hearings.
Will Morgan & Morgan take action? Or are they now Morgan, Morgan, & Harris?
A legacy of service to patrons, herself, and politically congruent prosecutorial discretion.
There is an easy path to power in the democrat party.
Marry or sleep with powerful men.
Kamala also threw numerous black people in jail. Double bonus!
Enabling democrat males with their rapes and abuse of women is the best way to help feminism.
As Howard said, it is her nomination to lose.
Porgie: But, Gee, Dad, I still don't understand how you can be the People's Prosecutor and my defense lawyer at the same time.

It's her election to lose
If she doesn't blow it.
Her whole life has been about advancing her career on thin credentials, skin color and good looks. It all started when she let Willie Brown jump her bones.
Prosecutors are the ultimate arbiters of who's on the side of the "People" and who is an Enemy of the People. The law don't enter into it, until that basic decision has been made.
To be clear, she has never really done much prosecuting, as an actual prosecutor.
She was an Alameda county deputy DA for 7-8 years, while hanging out with one Brown, Willie.
Presumably she prosecuted something or other in that time, though possibly that position too was also a favor from Willie. Alameda county is Oakland, Berkeley, etc. Very much Willie Brown land. It would be interesting to find out.
After that she was SF DA, which meant that she was running the DA office - and apparently very hands-off. Everything else she did was along these lines, a strictly political job, shmoozing, politicking, and seat-warming.
Howard: "It's her election to lose"
With one caveat: I believe its Kamala's to lose as well unless....michelle jumps in.
And Michelle's handlers have been working her public appearances and roll out of "events" (book launches, media appearances, etc) as if she were running.
If Michelle runs its her election to lose.
The only danger for Michelle: Trump is empowered (finally) to declassify all the lies the dems/left/LLR's conjured up to spy on him and other republicans and opponents of the Iran deal and media personnel.
Michelle will not be able to sidestep her "distance" from those activities.
I still laugh that the idiotic Elizabeth Warren thinks she has a shot! Just one shot across her "fauxahontas"/"appropriation" bow will send her into swift retreat.
Warren is the 2020 version of 2016 Biden.
And no, I don't care if it upsets LLR Chuck to read criticism of lefty dems.

Medicare for all = punishment for those in need life saving treatments or corrective joint replacement. Long waits. More death.
More than 400,000 Medicare beneficiaries had knee or hip replacement surgery in 2014, the Department of Health & Human Services reported.
"More death" is a relative statistic. Afterall, Medicare recipients are at least 65 years old and thus they require more life saving treatments.
The dirty little secret about Medicare for everyone is that bargain medical procedure costs now available to seniors, because of heavy government discounted payments (up to 90%) will suddenly disappear. Medical providers simply can't survive with such pricing if we go single source. And when providers drop services, wait times will dramatically increase.
Multiple comments have stated it is her election to lose and she was fucking Willie Brown (and may well still be fucking him), but I find that she is the weaker candidate, not for fucking Willie or lack of experience, but prosecuting black and brown folks at an alarming rate will be her undoing. Hillary wants to run in 2020 and logic dictates that with the Clinton money machine coupled with the MSM and celebutard worship of the unconvicted felon, Ms. Harris does not stand a chance. Hillary will win the nomination easily.

I'm afraid the database of FISA data the obama's have stockpiled through illegal FISA 702 searches executed by FusionGPS & Crowdstrike under the approval of FBI under Obama's Comey and the DOJ/NSD hacks will provide sufficient information that the obama's can torpedo Hillary anytime they want.
Easily.
However, what if the obama's would prefer Hillary to Kamala?
That seems hard to believe because not even LLR Chuck on his best day can make Hillary look good, though god knows he tries.
Trumpit: "THE PEOPLE will put your racist cracker A$$ in jail if you CRO$$ the line."
Lines are immoral.
Haven't you been paying attention?
Kamala is a hollywood candidate, for sure.
I wonder what Hillary and the Clinton Crime family will do to take her down a few notches?
Every defense attorney, after the prosecution unctuously calls itself The People, that the prosecution is not The People. The prosecution is The Goverrnment.
The jury is The People.
The founders weren’t stupid. The United States is the citizenry, not the Government.
"Her opponents in the Democratic Party are going to have to go after her quickly, I think- else she is going to run away with the nomination before the first primary is run. It is going to be interesting to watch the infighting in the media on the Left."
OTOH, the more people study, the worse she's likely to look; her record is a bit out of step with current D sensibilities.
She needs to wrap this one up quick.
Scott Adams's periscope earlier today on Harris is very funny. He thinks that the "Hillary mole" who always gave her bad advice is now working for the Harris campaign.
Best line: "Is any politician not for the people? What's the alternative, being in favor of animals?"
What an awful speaker she is.
Bahahahahha!!! After the way she treated Supreme Court Justice Kavanaugh, she can go pound sand.
Everything else she did was along these lines, a strictly political job, shmoozing, politicking, and seat-warming.
To be fair, very similar things could and have been said of Barrack Obama's career track, and a lot of other Democrat politicians who have been carfully groomed for presidential runs. Although Harris seems to actually have a little bit more in terms of a resume than Obama did.
When it comes to the Dems, the pathways to power are narrow. It's all about appearances, actual accomplishments are nice, but incidental. First you have to check enough boxes in terms of desirable traits... that is, you must be the right position in the greivence hierarchy at the time. Kamala gets double points for being black and being a woman. You have to find a powerful mentor or patreon and endear yourself to them. Said patreon can grease the wheels, have you pay homage abd metaphorically bend the knee to the correct power brokers. Then the career track can be set (in Harris's cae, from Deputy DA, to DA, to the Senate, and on to a presidential run).
Kamala and her sister both were named for well known Hindu Gods. But they were raised in a Baptist church singing in the choir. Their Indian mother's new job took them to Quebec when teens. Very interesting.
Kamala has a beautiful face and smile, an even temprament, and a good mind to go with her ambition to rule over us. She could be Trump's hardest opponent to beat. Maybe DJT could replace Pence with Nikki Haley to match her.
WHAT people??? The same as "my people" that Eric Holder talked about, or does this include everybody no matter what??
Great Scot!
But..but..they had an affair!
Hillary will not win easily this time. BUT - her donors and the Chuck Todd press are going to do all they can. Hillary's problem is ----- the voters.
I hear she has adopted Obama's vague platitudes and his "This is not who we are".
Not for America, not US citizens, but for the people. Which people Ms. Harris? At this point, you can't make any assumptions.

Career as a prosecutor; one year as a U.S. Senator.
Yea, totally qualified to be POTUS.

I'm not saying he's qualified, either.

Had it not been for aviation mishap due to the pilot thinking God would not dare to strike such a handsome Kennedy down in his prime, the dems would have long ago nominated John F. Kennedy Jr as their nominee.
I'm not convinced that Hillary has much of a shot at winning the nomination. I get the sense that the powers that be in the upper echelons of Democrat party are no longer as under the sway of the Clinton money machine as they once were. Plus I just find it difficult to believe that the Dems would be stupid enough to nominate a 2 time loser with as much baggage as she has given the current environment (#Metoo and millenial progs who are more attracted to the younger socialist sorts than a tired old crone from another era). But this is just a guess, I could be wrong.
It's Elizabeth Warren's time to be president. She will clean up Schlump's and the GOP's shark-infested swamp. The reign of gun-crazy rednecks must end. The 2nd Amendment must be abolished. The Wall must be built along the Mason-Dixon line, and the greedy excesses of Wall St. tamed. Defaming Native Americans, and Mexicans will stop. Schlump, a greedy, traitorous, dumbbell of a president, must be sent to Guantanamo for punishment and rehabilitation, and a diet of Cuban black beans, and rice instead of hamberders will be his sustenance. His golf courses will be converted into wildlife preserves. The GOP will morph into the Green Organic Party of peace and nonviolence. A boy or girl, living under a President Warren, can dream again, can't she? Schlump will be remembered as the train-wreck president. A gnat would have made a better president.
I used to imagine that to be President a person would have to be someone I can visually imagine being the actual President, like it was some sort of magic look. I had a hard time imagining Trump, so my theory is shot.
"The prosecution is The Government."
When prosecutors in a trial in Tennessee wanted the court to ban references to them (by the defense) as "the government," defense attorney filed epic response, including:
'The word “defendant” should be banned. At trial, Mr. Powell hereby demands he be addressed only by his full name, preceded by the title “Mister.” Alternatively, he may be called simply “the Citizen Accused.” This latter title sounds more respectable than the criminal “Defendant.” The designation “That innocent man” would also be acceptable.'
Was that her cry at peak orgasm with Willy? "For the People"
"Was that her cry at peak orgasm with Willy? 'For the People'"
No, that was your cry for help because obviously you need it.
She will be (per-)pro-secuting the whole country or just her opponents?
"for the people"
Wait, does that mean she's a populist?

"But Trump," the left will yell.
I'm not saying he's qualified, either.
Not any more...today, he's the only eligible human on the planet with relevant job experience.
Most of the democratic party want to tax everyone to the hilt to pay for the administrative state. All you suckers who worked hard to pay for your education - well guess what? you get to work and slave for the edu-crats and their is free free free education.
Socialized government run medicare for all. The VA but with more people like Polis who set up medical companies, knowing full well tax payer graft will line their pockets.
Bonus: NO no immigration and customs agents. No immigration and customs agency.
This is the modern democratic party.
Yeah - I want to defeat that crap. If Trump cannot do it - we need a candidate(S) who will.
I'm so sick the Clintons and their greedy never-ending entitlement for power. I'm ready for any of the other crap D candidate sandwiches.
I'd prefer the democrats stick with some sanity. (the not-so-glamorous boring people)
Sadly, the party that gave us Marilyn Monroe in a tutu in AZ are the same people who will vote for KKKamala because brown-female.
KKKamala is not sane. She's really angry, and she wants to punish the deplorables.
The left forget that there will be a reaction. She could be the female Trump.
Her white husband will be a bigger issue in that she tries to run as an African American, but her parents were neither African, American, nor suffered the AA experience
Harris was born in Oakland, but
Mom was an Indian citizen, who raised Harris in Canada.
Pop was a Jamaican citizen, Professor at Cal (IIRC)
she is a birthright citizen, born of immigrants.
she is of course eligible, but the immigrant meme is better than the AA one
Crimso nailed it. "For the People" sounds like the tagline for a cheesy nationwide personal injury law firm. In fact- it is!
She's such a made-up person. Everything she says at all times is with a personal goal in mind. It may sound pleasing to you at the moment, but know that it's all about what it does for her. In this way, she's another Hillary. So, when she says 'for the people' know that she's 'the people'.
I sure hope we don't just select her because she's missing a dick. She may not have one, but she sure can imitate one.
"For the People" or "for the Children"--whatever. One of those shibboleths statists always invoke to justify using the Mailed Fist.
A little off the subject, but I honestly believe that if Bernie had said, when the Black Lives Matter members too over one of his rallies, "Get the f--- off my stage!" he would be President today.
"It's Elizabeth Warren's time to be president. She will clean up Schlump's and the GOP's shark-infested swamp." Yay, statism now, statism forever! As Trumpit drops trou, bends and spreads to receive Big Brother's "benediction."
If she wins, can we say "Look, the President has no panties!"?
Great!! I like the ring of the United States of Wakanda!!
Anyone else out there seen Zorro, the Gay Blade? I keep wanting to pronounce it "Forrr thi Pipples".
Why does The People never seem to include me?
"If she wins, can we say 'Look, the President has no panties!'?"
Please explain you nasty comment. Have no idea what it means or why you said it. Careful the things you say; children will listen.

"Surf & Turf"
An article claimed there were 20,000 people at the Oakland rally but there were no wide shots to confirm that. "The people" who were photographed there, the audience, imo looked mostly bored and worn out. Kamala Harris has lived her life rising above that kind of people. Her real people who connect with her personally are the sorority women of Alpha Kappa Alpha. I listened to some of their videos on Youtube and they were all about inspiration, self determination, faith, overcoming obstacles. Harris's speech was all about the negatives Democrats always recite to prove how they care about lesser people and how she and the government are going to make things better for people. I wasn't listening closely, were there any actual solutions? There's a disconnect between what she knows is true about getting ahead and what she is selling people. She's obviously not one of the people, she didn't come up from a deprived background and she really isn't leading from truth. I don't know how people keep being fooled by this kind of charade.
Late to the party, so I’m sure someone by now has already said this, if so he or she is a genius.
Kamala Harris: “My whole life I’ve only had one client... myself”.
Anything else is bullshit from a life long politician.
A line is just the lowest of walls.
I think that it is going to be an interesting year and a half. What is interesting to me is that the Republicans wish that they had a top down system based, to some extent on linage, and don’t. The Democrats pretend that they have a democracy, but it is mostly top down, at least at a national level. It was Crooked Hillary’s turn, and that was that. Maybe the Worst Candidate Ever. Certainly the most corrupt. But it was Her Turn. Republicans used to nominate the person whose turn was up, but not anymore, as evidenced by the abysmal job JEB did, after squandering record amounts of cash. Best thing that could happen to the Democrats is that Clinton states early on that she won’t run, and won’t accept their nomination if offered. She shouldn’t have a chance, because she doesn’t have much of a chance at winning this time around. Last time, she had a good chance, and squandered it. This time she would be running away from her failure, after having been caught starting the entire Russian Collusion hoax, and having gotten a sweetheart deal for her illegal email felonies by the accommodating Obama/Lynch/Yates DOJ, and doing it this time 4 years older, and even sicker and with less endurance than last time. I don’t think there are that many stupid people at the top of the DNC, but expect it to be close, if she doesn’t drop out early. And a drag down fight with the Clinton machine for the nomination is not going to make November easy, esp if the nominee crosses the ever vengeful Clinton too publicly.
If I were a Democrat, I would hope for a moderate with some practical experience, like former CO Gov Hickendooper. I don’t see that happening. Harris, at least, checks some of the intersectionality boxes. Fauxhauntis Warren only gets to mark “female”, and gets marked down for trying to cheat, and getting caught. More importantly, maybe, she doesn’t seem nearly as quick on her feet as she would need to be to beat Trump. That is going to be a problem for whomever the Dems nominate, but most haven’t really showed this off yet. She has.
Oh, she's "For the People". Finally, a politician for the people! Yay!
To Trumpit @3:06
I might have guessed that you didn't understand. I am not an artist, so I can't draw you a cartoon (which is a common technique used for people who cannot understand, such as yourself). In very simple English: She dropped her panties so many times to get where she is (as openly verified by Willie), she probably thought it would be better to not bother with such items of clothing. Trumpit, I can explain it in another language, if you do not understand English.
I didn't know many children read this blog -- if so, damn, they are acquiring quite an education.
I don't know how people keep being fooled by this kind of charade.
But she's pretty! To a lot of men, this is important. After all, that's how Sinema got elected to the Senate.
Char Char Binks: "A line is just the lowest of walls."
In 2-dimensional Land a line is quite immoral.
Trumpit: "Please explain you nasty comment."
Trying to immitate you?
"For the People"
It's a cookbook!
One reason that the next year and a half will be interesting is that I think that route to the Dem nomination is going to be through getting at Trump. Whomever is the most successful probably has the best chance at the nomination. The problem is setting themselves off from the other clown car inhabitants. But that essentially means a dozen or so different attacks, different messages, at the same time, because parroting the party message doesn’t highlight a candidate’s message, or show that they would be any better than the next guy or gal in attacking Trump. The Dems in DC right now have a fairly consistent message (Impeach the horrible Orange haired guy). We will likely be well beyond that (I expect House impeachment on the grounds of Orange Man Bad, and less than a majority voting for conviction in the Senate). After that, what do they concentrate on? Middle class tax increases? (A billionaire tax, as suggested by Warren is not going anywhere, because the Democrats need the billionaires’ money to get elected). Reengaging ground troops in Afghanistan and Syria? Destroying Medicare by providing it for everyone? No border security so country can be overrun by narco criminals brutally killing anyone who gets in their way, while importing drugs, sex slaves, and automatic weapons? As they say - pass the popcorn.
Obama redux. Neither one spent their formative years in America, so it puzzles me how they can claim to have lived the black experience in America.
Anyhow, heard her new nickname is "Ho-Bama," I found it amusing.
“But she's pretty! To a lot of men, this is important. After all, that's how Sinema got elected to the Senate.”
I think it was tons more money having been spent on advertising (easily twice as much as her opponent on TV ads, since her ads would often sandwich her opponent’s ads in commercial breaks) and a certain amount of fairly blatant cheating.
Has a career prosecutor ever been elected president? Thinking back over the presidents from McKinley to date, I don't there was one who could be described that way. Dewey had made his name as a prosecutor, but famously won before he lost. Coolidge (as governor) took control of the Boston police during the strike, which is close but no cigar. But no career prosecutor comes to mind.
“Anyhow, heard her new nickname is "Ho-Bama," I found it amusing.”
Perfect counter. Needs some Black male opinion leaders (like Kanye West) to push this. And then when the MSM tries to call them on it, hit back that they are, inevitably, white, that she spent most of her career aggressively locking up black men, and that she earned the name having traded sex with Willie Brown for money ($100k a year on two commissions) and advancement. Besides, she isn’t a real Black, being half Asian and none of ancestors having experienced slavery in this country. Besides, Blacks tend to not like Blacks who marry white, as she did. (Obama’s wife is much dark than he, has the west Central African body type, and presumably had slave ancestors).
"It's Elizabeth Warren's time to be president... Defaming Native Americans, and Mexicans will stop."
Is she planning to abolish the First Amendment?
I suspect Trump was hoping for Elizabeth Warren to be the most likely nominee. Or Bernie Sanders. We will know if Trump is worried if he fails to come up with a nickname for her. She seems hard to pin down with a good one.
If she stated that she wants to ban guns or hunting or trapping, she would be killed by a redneck, or the by the same thing: a gun nut. We find ourselves on the verge of a 2nd Civil War. Instead of slavery, we will be fighting over the meaning of the 2nd Amendment. We have a New York redneck in the office of the president in Schlump, who has sons that hunt nearly extinct African Wildlife.
So, you won't see any candidate getting tough on gun ownership for fear of assassination. Meanwhile millions of animals are senselessly killed by hunters and trappers every year. And some commentators are worried about Kamala Harris pulling down her panties to get a promotion. Get your head out of the gutter right-wingers.
Not true. Willy Brown was her client and she was paid handsomely.
You know what’s really fun to watch. Kamala going lighter or darker depending on the crowd and location. I can’t wait to see how white she’ll be when she campaigns in Marin County.
@glenn,
How mighty white of you! You've got a problem with her skin color. Sad!
Do you have anything intelligent to say?
Trumpit: "If she stated that she wants to ban guns or hunting or trapping, she would be killed by a redneck, or the by the same thing: a gun nut."
Well, that explains the mass murder at Handgun Control Inc.........oh wait...
LOL
Trumpit: " You've got a problem with her skin color. Sad!
Do you have anything intelligent to say?""
Leftists say skin color and race is merely a social construct, so yes, by the lefty rules, kamala can go lighter, or darker, or become a man, or a Puerto Rican, or even a penguin if she wishes to identify that way.
"Some Men Don't Have Penises" said every lefty everywhere.
“So, you won't see any candidate getting tough on gun ownership for fear of assassination. Meanwhile millions of animals are senselessly killed by hunters and trappers every year. And some commentators are worried about Kamala Harris pulling down her panties to get a promotion. Get your head out of the gutter right-wingers.”
Love how the Dems are always obsessing about being asassinated by gun rights advocates, and almost every assasination attempt on politicians is by leftists and registered Democrats.
But, yes, you should fear a second civil war. Fear it greatly. We have the guns, and the training to use them. For the most part, your side does not. That said, I expect that the death toll will be mostly Blue on Blue, as the police withdraw and maybe even defect, leaving much of Blue America to fight among themselves to acquire a rapidly diminishing supply of food and power (almost all of which comes from Red America).
The time I expect to see armed insurrection is when the Dems steal a national election, as they so brazenly did around the country last fall. And esp if a fraulently elected President tries to disarm the American public. Right now, the response to gun grabbing political statements by Dem politicians is that a lot of people head to the gun stores to stock up on guns and ammo. In pretty much every story by the right about Gun grabbing Dems crossing the line, the Dems will do something stupid like order the seizing of firearms, and the response around the country is a collective unlocking of gun safes. If you honestly think that you could disarm the American people over the next several generations, you are a fool. There are clearly more guns than people in this country, maybe even half again as many. No one really knows, and, under our current set of laws, it would be illegal for the federal govt to know who has what guns. And changing those laws would likely have negative consequences from those doing so.
She is being tricky. For example, prosecutors in federal court represent the US government.
In California, a rule of court allows prosecutors to list their title in the complaint as "People of the State of California." A prosecutor, however, cannot tell a jury that "I represent you." As a retired California prosecutor of more than three decades, Harris's reputation as state Attorney General and San Francisco DA was as a left-wing politician.
Here is California Rule of Court 1.6:
(15)"Party" is a person appearing in an action. Parties include both self-represented persons and persons represented by an attorney of record. "Party," "plaintiff," "People of the State of California," "applicant," "petitioner," "defendant," "respondent," "other parent," or any other designation of a party includes the party's attorney of record.
I don't "fear" a second Civil War. I'm prepared to fight one, however. Watch out! @Bruce Hayden, Rednecks, like you, come out of the woodwork threatening to kill liberals at the mere mention of your evil murders of innocent animals. As Churchill said in a famous speech, "We shall go on to the end. We shall fight in the South, and in every trailer park, we shall fight on the seas and oceans, we shall fight with growing confidence and growing strength in the air, we shall defend our liberalism, whatever the cost may be. We shall fight on the beaches, we shall fight on the landing grounds, we shall fight in the tobacco fields and in the streets, we shall fight in the hills Tennessee; we shall never surrender, and if, which I do not for a moment believe, this non-redneck land or a large part of it were subjugated and starving, then our beyond the seas, armed and guarded by liberal and Democratic forces, would carry on the struggle, until, in God's good time, the New World, with all its power and might, steps forth to the rescue and the liberation of the righteous people, i.e., Democrats, and liberals.

Mafuro, Maduro...who really gives a flyin'...

There could be a shortage of bilingual teachers and professors. Maybe force all incoming faculty to be competent in Spanish? It wouldn't matter how competent you were in your field as long as you "look like" your students and speak their lingo.
That could shake up a few liberal enclaves.
Trumpit probably holds zer gun like Noel Redding did, while Hayden has the Hendrix grip. It's all about proper gun control.
"Nah, too hard to spell."

Trumpit is a mentally deranged individual who probably deserves our sympathy and compassion. Or maybe not.
Oh Jebus here it comes. Any legitimate criticism of her policy positions is because you are both racist AND sexist. We already suffered through 8 years of the last minority hire with this crap, can we just skip this one?
Her only one client has been herself. She was taking one for the team when she was taking Willie Brown, it was all for her.
Does *Catholic* mean accepting and championing Pope as moral authority/arbiter?
Or something else altogether? What?

She's such a made-up person. Everything she says at all times is with a personal goal in mind. It may sound pleasing to you at the moment, but know that it's all about what it does for her. In this way, she's another Hillary.
Isn't Kamala more like Billy Jeff in terms of attractive to opposite sex/gender?
“Trumpit probably holds zer gun like Noel Redding did, while Hayden has the Hendrix grip. It's all about proper gun control.”
Not a guitarist. Never even played one, or even an air guitar, so I missed your allusions. Not much experience with revolvers, so not sure what my grip looks like there. Much more time with semiautomatics, and there I use a two parallel thumb grip. Maybe should look into moving my support hand thumb a bit forward, but currently they are next to each other. We shall see. I didn’t realize it until tonight, and it should be obvious, but my grip is one that works well with Glocks, and it turns out that 2/3 of the handguns I routinely practice with are full sized Glocks. Supposed to have problems with Sigs (which I don’t own) because of the slide. Moved from Isosoles to modified Weaver stance last fall, after being beat up pretty bad in a class by the instructors. I shoot better this way. It seems a lot more natural, at least for me, with the power/dominant leg back, and leaning a bit into the shot. Isosoles always seems too forced to me, bending at the waist and leaning forward, with your butt sticking out in back. It is supposed to be better for side to side shifts and movement, and if you wear body armor.
Now here is a dangerous person; dangerous to The People.
A prosecutor, to me, is someone who sides against the people.
First of all Trumpit you're not a liberal. Becaus if you were you would champion free speech. You don't. You wouldn't care how much someone makes or how they spend their free time. You do.
No Trumpit. You're a card carrying fascist. And a moral scold as well.
You're also boring as hell.
You lived in fear of your mothers disapproval, didn't you.
Rust Belt,
I'll bring the discussion back to Schlump. His days are numbered.

I respect defense attorneys more than I do prosecutors.
KAMALA HARRIS FOR THE DUSTBIN OF HISTORY.
Contact Dr.mack201@ gmail. com! and have your Ex lover back in 3 days,………………………..???? YES I am so happy
I respect defense attorneys more than I do prosecutors.
Of course you do, Cookie. Because criminals are more important than victims. Right?
The enthusiasm for Harris is just proof that what the Democrats object to is less Trump's authoritarian behavior than that authoritarian behavior is not directed along "progressive" lines. Harris has made clear what her "progressive prosecutor" thing mean with the story about threatening parents with jail time over truancy. She thinks the power of the state should be used to accomplish social goals -- to make kids to go to school, to make people recycle, to make people act better. She looks to China's new "social credit" system as an ideal: mass surveillance and people's freedom being dictated by how often they make the correct choices in life.
Oh, and she also wants a massive tax cut for people who don't pay taxes to pay for a massive insurance plan for people who already have insurance.
Of all the Dem candidates, she's easily the worst.
Her only client is the people.
OK, I'll buy it. But a lot of professionals screw their clients through evil, like embezzlement, or by ignorance/incompetence. Ms. Harris might score a two-fer.
You can run, you can run, tell my friend Willie Brown.

Hit a nerve, didn't I. Why don't you call the president by his rightful name so people don't mistake you for a twelve year old.Grown ups will take you seriously.
"Did you see that Trumpit called Donald Trump ... 'Schlump'? "
Yes, when it comes to sophisticated, witty political humor, Trumpit could give Pee Pee a run for his money when it's Open Mike night at the shelter.
