Well here is where you are mistaken. I am not interested in an argument against her. I am interested in the facts. I try not to give my opinion. If Joe Biden wins in November, Harris will be the most likely VP to assume the presidency since Harry Truman. Don't you think she should be vetted in the most meticulous way? Should she get a pass because she is a woman? Black? A Democrat? Would you be ok with anyone regardless of their past positions and behavior being President? Shouldn't the standard applied to Trump be applied to everyone?

I just think that it was a poor decision by Biden ..
Biden demonstrated his lack of strategic political thinking by promising to pick a woman for VP. He was then cornered by some in the Democrat party to make that choice a woman of color. Pure virtue signaling and pandering. Had he not said anything he still could have picked Harris. Had he not made that promise he could have found a far more suitable pick than Harris.
