Why @KamalaHarris is @JoeBiden pick for VP:

No other contender (except Warren) matches Harris’s pol/gov experience

1. Elected 3x statewide in the largest state; refers to herself as a "progressive prosecutor” and highly knowledgeable about all that needs to be

2. Been through pres campaign wringer; built a national profile
3. Sits on important committees: Homeland Sec., Judiciary, Intelligence
4. Notable performances grilling Bill Barr; Brett Kavanaugh (would certainly hold her own w Pence)

5. She's been an aggressive campaigner; fundraiser
6. Demographic balance w older white man. 2nd Black woman to serve in the Senate.
(She’s a 55-year-old daughter of immigrants: Jamaica/India; would be a historic selection.)

7. Has been a leading voice on COVID hitting the Black community disproportionately hard. Was 1 of the first lawmakers to join in BLM protests.
8. Has a record on exec actions banning assault weapons; univ background checks
9. Supports Medicare for All but with role for private
