User: 0.0 - 4.28: Oh, you guys are at the wrong rally.
4.28 - 7.96: I think you've met to go to the smaller one down the street.
7.96 - 11.36: If you had to be stuck in an elevator with either President Trump, Mike Pence, or Jeff
11.36 - 12.88: Sessions, who would it be?
12.88 - 14.84: is one of us have to come out alive.
14.84 - 17.52: Who is Kamala Harris?
17.52 - 18.68: What does she believe?
18.68 - 21.92: And what does her story teach us about how she might govern
21.92 - 23.520000000000003: if elected president?
23.520000000000003 - 26.160000000000004: He's the first woman ever to be the city's top prosecutor.
26.16 - 27.36: Kamala is Brad.
27.36 - 29.48: Kamala, you're fired.
29.48 - 31.0: Last week we did Trump.
31.0 - 32.24: This week it's Kamala.
32.24 - 34.56: So let me show you the rise of Kamala Harris.
34.56 - 36.92: Should be asking, are we smart on Kamala?
36.92 - 38.32: We did it, Joe.
38.32 - 39.160000000000004: I'm speaking.
39.160000000000004 - 41.68: It's not the first time my house is getting shot.
41.68 - 43.24: We will be procuring you.
49.24 - 52.36: My mother had another lesson she used to teach.
52.36 - 56.92: Never let anyone tell you who you are.
56.92 - 60.72: You showed them who you are.
60.72 - 64.4: Paris was born in 1964 in Oakland, California.
64.4 - 66.96000000000001: Her father had come to California from Jamaica
66.96000000000001 - 68.96000000000001: to get his PhD in economics.
68.96000000000001 - 71.84: Her mother immigrated to the US from Southern India,
71.84 - 74.24000000000001: landing in Berkeley, California for the same reason
86.92 - 92.28: in 1972 and Kamala and her sister were raised mostly by their single mother.
92.28 - 96.92: And it sounds like, like many single-parent households, it was pretty tough.
96.92 - 101.88: One thing we know for sure is that Kamala's mother was a major influence on her as a child.
101.88 - 108.6: My mother was a brilliant five foot tall brown woman with an accent and it was mostly
108.6 - 115.08: my mother who raised her. So my mother, my mother, that was my mother. And her mother is the origin
115.08 - 133.64: of this now viral quote.
133.64 - 137.36: Kamala's childhood was happening just at the time the civil rights movement was at
137.36 - 142.76: its height.
142.76 - 147.84: This fight wasn't theoretical for her, it was happening in her literal front yard.
147.84 - 154.04: We grew up pretty much surrounded full time by adults who spent their time marching and
154.04 - 156.39999999999998: shouting about this thing called justice.
156.4 - 162.24: As an elementary school student, Kamala was a part of some of the first efforts to desegregate
162.24 - 167.8: schools by busing kids from predominantly black neighborhoods to try to integrate these
167.8 - 170.44: cities that had been so deeply divided by race.
170.44 - 177.0: was a little girl in California who was part of the second class to integrate her public schools
177.0 - 182.68: and she was bused to school every day. And that little girl was me. Okay, so at this point you
182.68 - 184.28: you start to see some of these influences
184.28 - 186.28: that go on to inform the rest of her life.
186.28 - 188.72: Her immigrant parents, especially her single mother
188.72 - 191.16: who raised her, the civil rights movement happening
191.16 - 193.8: around her, and the neighborhood that she grew up in.
193.8 - 198.86: In middle school, Kamala's mom accepted a job in Montreal as a cancer researcher.
198.86 - 203.16000000000003: She talks about this as being a big opportunity for her mom, but she was a teenager and she
203.16000000000003 - 205.92000000000002: was not thrilled to be moving to Canada.
205.92000000000002 - 211.60000000000002: the time describe high schooler Kamala as bookish, bubbly, and two have blended in with everyone
211.60000000000002 - 216.96: easily. After graduating high school in 1982, she enrolled in Howard University in Washington,
216.96 - 224.32000000000002: D.C., where she studied political science and economics. During her time at college,
224.32 - 226.54: She took on student leadership positions,
226.54 - 228.34: participated on the debate team,
228.34 - 231.29999999999998: and continued to show an interest in activism,
231.29999999999998 - 233.62: participating in protests on campus.
233.62 - 235.82: While in DC, you also start to see
235.82 - 237.85999999999999: her turn more towards politics.
237.86 - 240.28: She spends both her summers and during the school year,
240.28 - 242.72000000000003: interning at government institutions,
242.72000000000003 - 244.60000000000002: places like the Federal Trade Commission,
244.60000000000002 - 246.72000000000003: or interning for a California senator.
246.72000000000003 - 248.60000000000002: She worked at the National Archives.
248.60000000000002 - 250.44000000000003: She was a tour guide at the US Bureau
250.44 - 255.72: been graving and printing. And in between all of this, she also took on summer jobs to make money,
255.72 - 258.12: the most famous of which being her stint at McDonald's.
261.4 - 265.32: Which like during this election, people have been trying to debunk or like spread rumors that
265.32 - 266.52: that she didn't work at McDonald's,
266.52 - 268.4: like it's some highly controversial thing.
268.4 - 271.15999999999997: Anyway, the point here is there's a major paradox
271.15999999999997 - 274.26: happening in Paris's life that we start to see.
274.26 - 277.64: On one hand, she's influenced by activism,
277.64 - 280.59999999999997: is critical of government, she's protesting it,
280.59999999999997 - 284.24: while also working within old government institutions
284.24 - 286.64: that she was often critiquing as unfair.
286.64 - 288.59999999999997: This is a major theme within her life.
288.59999999999997 - 289.84: One you can see in this speech
289.84 - 292.47999999999996: that she gave to Howard graduates in 2017.
307.64 - 311.64: Okay, so it's the mid-80s and Harris returns to California for law school.
311.64 - 317.64: This is where we start to see more influences, like one summer she was an intern at the Alameda County District Attorney's Office.
317.64 - 323.64: And she gets her first real taste for how powerful a role as a public prosecutor can be.
323.64 - 328.64: I was working on a case and I realized that among those arrested was an innocent bystander.
328.64 - 333.64: But it was late on a Friday afternoon the case would not get called until Monday.
333.64 - 336.34: I pleaded for the judge to come back
336.34 - 342.36: I would not leave until the judge finally gave in and when that happened with the swipe of a pen
342.36 - 348.28: This woman got to go home to her children that woman taught me that when you see something in front of you
348.28000000000003 - 354.04: that's wrong. You can just go ahead and do what you know is right. Okay, so we're now getting to
354.04 - 360.12: the point that got me really curious about Harris. We have this list of initial influences that
360.12 - 364.44: have informed her life, but now we get to the more visible part. What she did when she was in the
364.44 - 370.44: public eye during her career, her decisions, her words, they paint a picture and I want to show it
370.44 - 375.16: to you. Most important things don't come easy. So it's not going to be a cake watch. There's a
375.16 - 380.28: lot of work to do. Okay, but before we dive in, let's define this word prosecutor, which is a
380.28000000000003 - 381.8: is a word that you're gonna hear a lot
381.8 - 383.56: when you talk about Kamala Harris.
383.56 - 386.6: A public prosecutor is the government's lawyer.
386.6 - 389.08000000000004: They are responsible for presenting the evidence
389.08000000000004 - 390.84000000000003: and the case against people or businesses
390.84000000000003 - 392.40000000000003: accused of committing a crime.
392.40000000000003 - 393.84000000000003: And here in the United States,
393.84000000000003 - 397.04: they're often seen as hawks, they're tough on crime,
397.04 - 399.40000000000003: responsible for upholding America's habit
399.40000000000003 - 403.24: of throwing millions in jail for non-violent crimes, okay?
403.24 - 405.88000000000005: Public prosecutor, big part of Kamala Harris's life.
405.88 - 409.15999999999997: So after law school, Harris becomes a public prosecutor
409.15999999999997 - 411.88: in California, first in Alameda County,
411.88 - 413.68: and then for the city of San Francisco,
413.68 - 416.48: and then eventually for the entire state of California.
416.48 - 419.84: So now Kamala Harris, this activist turned
419.84000000000003 - 424.96000000000004: kind of politician lawyer takes on the role that is kind of the definition of tough on
424.96000000000004 - 430.8: crime, working to convict criminals, advocating to lock them up, and upholding the status
430.8 - 432.6: quo of our justice system.
432.6 - 434.84000000000003: Serious and violent crime, lock them up.
434.84000000000003 - 438.12: But, Hera says that she's a different kind of public prosecutor.
438.12 - 442.6: She calls herself a progressive prosecutor, huh?
442.6 - 445.48: This strikes people as kind of a contradiction.
445.48 - 448.76000000000005: Are you soft on crime or are you tough on crime?
448.76 - 453.14: Instead, I believe we should be asking, are we smart on crime?
453.14 - 457.71999999999997: Again, here in the United States, progressives tend to advocate for reform to our justice
457.71999999999997 - 458.71999999999997: system.
458.71999999999997 - 463.21999999999997: They say that the system is too harsh, locking up way too many people who are disproportionately
463.22 - 469.78000000000003: brown and black men, often for non-violent crimes and for far too long. That's one of many critiques.
469.78000000000003 - 474.02000000000004: And as I mentioned, prosecutors are kind of seen as the ones doing the locking up. So to get through
474.02 - 478.74: this next section, let's put both of these words on a scale. And as we look at her career,
478.74 - 484.34: let's assess what she's done that represents the progressive side of the scale, and what of her
484.34000000000003 - 488.34000000000003: actions represent more of the traditional prosecutor side. I'm going to go through the
488.34000000000003 - 492.74: progressive side first, but then I will get to the prosecutor side. So don't forget that that's coming.
492.74 - 496.82000000000005: Early intervention leaves room in our prisons for the violent criminals who should be there.
496.82 - 499.65999999999997: First up, Harris says that being a progressive prosecutor
499.65999999999997 - 502.62: means holding serious criminals to account
502.62 - 506.04: while focusing on preventing crime in the first place.
506.04 - 509.38: She focuses on stopping the crime before it happens.
509.38 - 511.02: And to do this, throughout her career,
511.02 - 513.02: she focuses a lot on data.
526.82 - 531.5400000000001: The context here is that crime is one of those issues that easily scares us.
531.5400000000001 - 535.22: No matter your political leanings, every person wants to feel safe.
535.22 - 540.1800000000001: So there's a lot of emotions driving how our justice system works, how we treat criminals.
540.1800000000001 - 542.2600000000001: But Harris wanted to change this.
556.82 - 558.9000000000001: She's building public databases.
558.9000000000001 - 563.1400000000001: Let's focus on what we can do to prevent crime before it occurs.
563.1400000000001 - 565.1400000000001: Publishing statistics on crimes.
565.1400000000001 - 569.5400000000001: Elementary school students missing 60, 70, 80 days of 180 day school year.
569.5400000000001 - 570.6600000000001: Arrest data.
570.66 - 574.26: I was told prosecutors don't need to focus on recidivism.
574.26 - 578.5: I was told prosecutors should not focus on the needs of children.
578.5 - 580.74: A public database for police practices.
580.74 - 582.98: Did an analysis of who our homicide victims were?
582.98 - 585.14: 94% of them were high school dropouts.
600.66 - 603.4599999999999: And in a few cases, she actually did that.
603.4599999999999 - 609.06: So I decided I was going to start prosecuting parents for truancy.
609.06 - 612.36: Well, this was a little controversial in San Francisco.
612.36 - 616.86: And frankly, my staff went bananas. They were very concerned.
616.86 - 621.02: Okay, a few more things on the progressive side of the scale here, and then we'll get to the prosecutor side.
621.02 - 623.22: She fought against applying the death penalty.
623.22 - 627.22: She fought big banks and won convictions after the 2008 housing crisis.
627.22 - 632.34: We have delivered to California $18 billion
632.34 - 634.5400000000001: in relief for California's homeowners.
634.5400000000001 - 636.98: She fought and won a billion dollars
636.98 - 640.02: for victims of a predatory for-profit university.
640.02 - 642.9: We are talking about Corinthian colleges
642.9 - 646.22: taking advantage of Californians
646.22 - 649.58: who simply aspire to achieve the American dream.
649.58 - 652.46: And perhaps her most nationally recognized moment
652.46 - 655.0600000000001: as Attorney General is the moment where she told
655.0600000000001 - 657.98: the Clerk of Los Angeles to begin issuing marriage licenses
657.98 - 659.48: to same-sex couples.
659.48 - 661.46: Back during when this was a big debate
661.46 - 664.84: around Proposition 8 or the legality of gay marriage.
664.84 - 666.48: This is <PRESIDIO_ANONYMIZED_PERSON>.
666.48 - 669.0400000000001: You must start marriages immediately.
672.48 - 673.9200000000001: Okay, but hold your horses.
673.9200000000001 - 675.36: There's another side to this story.
675.36 - 677.4000000000001: So far, I've made Harris look like this
677.4 - 680.64: reform-minded, progressive champion as a prosecutor,
680.64 - 683.16: but let's look at the other side of the scale.
683.16 - 685.72: I took on perpetrators of all kinds.
685.72 - 686.56: Lock them up.
686.56 - 688.64: Pressibly prosecuting violent criminals
688.64 - 691.84: as San Francisco's first African-American DA.
691.84 - 693.5600000000001: First, the death penalty.
693.5600000000001 - 695.48: In 2014, as attorney general,
695.48 - 698.5600000000001: in a seemingly reversal of her previous actions
698.5600000000001 - 699.8000000000001: as district attorney,
699.8000000000001 - 701.88: she actually fought to keep the death penalty
701.88 - 704.4: in California by appealing a ruling
704.4 - 706.64: that would have effectively ended it in the state.
706.64 - 708.92: In another case, the Supreme Court came out and said
708.92 - 711.56: that California's prisons were so overcrowded
711.56 - 713.76: that it violated the Constitution
713.76 - 716.28: as cruel and unusual punishment.
716.28 - 719.36: And yet, her office supported the governor's fight
719.36 - 721.16: against releasing prisoners.
721.16 - 723.64: Over the years, she resisted or fought against
723.64 - 725.6: some criminal justice reforms.
725.6 - 728.12: Her office prosecuted almost 2,000 people
728.12 - 730.1999999999999: in cannabis related offenses,
730.1999999999999 - 732.52: as well as defending the cash bail,
732.52 - 735.28: which critics see as unfairly punishing
735.28 - 736.64: lower income defendants.
736.64 - 738.3199999999999: Okay, I know this is a lot of like,
738.3199999999999 - 740.6: we are in the weeds of the justice system.
740.6 - 741.76: And like with the Trump video,
741.76 - 745.48: I was able to be like in the weeds on like branded vodka
745.48 - 747.76: and giant towers in New York City.
747.76 - 750.28: But Kamala's story is actually this.
750.28 - 752.28: It's like she has been in the weeds
752.28 - 754.12: on criminal justice policy,
754.12 - 757.36: and her critics and her fans debate
757.36 - 762.08: as to how progressive or hawkish she was in the system.
762.08 - 764.4000000000001: And so that is how we are evaluating her here.
764.4000000000001 - 766.9200000000001: I know it's not as fun as watching Donald Trump
766.9200000000001 - 770.84: like be in the apprentice, but this is her career.
770.84 - 773.84: Jeez, California's most innovative district attorney.
773.84 - 775.5600000000001: After going through all of these critiques,
775.5600000000001 - 779.8800000000001: you can see why some liberals call BS on her whole idea
779.8800000000001 - 782.22: of being a progressive prosecutor,
782.22 - 783.8000000000001: saying that her career was actually built off
783.8000000000001 - 786.32: of maintaining a tough on crime policy
786.32 - 788.6: while sprinkling in some progressive reforms.
788.6 - 790.2: No matter how you judge all of this,
790.2 - 793.9200000000001: what's clear is that Harris continues to mind that balance
793.9200000000001 - 795.5200000000001: that she has her whole life,
795.5200000000001 - 799.32: where she clearly has earnest progressive values and ideals,
799.32 - 803.26: but she also is pragmatic and works within the system
803.26 - 805.32: that she believes is where she can make change,
805.32 - 807.08: which means upholding the status quo.
807.08 - 808.6: But what this looks like, especially now
808.6 - 811.0400000000001: that she's under the microscope of the entire world,
811.0400000000001 - 813.1600000000001: no one really knows where she stands
813.1600000000001 - 815.5600000000001: because there's seemingly contradictory
815.5600000000001 - 818.08: or inconsistent behavior here.
818.08 - 820.0: I'll share my read on that in just a sec,
820.0 - 822.76: but first, let's see what happens next.
822.76 - 825.5200000000001: I am excited to stand before you
825.5200000000001 - 828.1600000000001: as a proud California candidate
828.1600000000001 - 829.5200000000001: for the United States Center.
830.96 - 834.6800000000001: The election has been exhausting because of the news cycle.
834.6800000000001 - 837.0000000000001: I feel like every day there's like 150 news stories
837.0000000000001 - 838.4000000000001: that I should be following,
838.4000000000001 - 840.8800000000001: but they're coming from all these different news outlets
840.8800000000001 - 843.1600000000001: that all have different biases.
843.1600000000001 - 844.84: Luckily, there is a solution for that,
844.84 - 847.8000000000001: and that is the sponsor of today's video, Ground News.
847.8000000000001 - 849.8000000000001: Ground News aggregates news stories
849.8000000000001 - 852.48: from around the world into one place.
852.48 - 855.76: It is a website and an app that helps me cut through the noise
855.76 - 856.6: when I'm reading the news,
856.6 - 858.28: because it allows me to see the bias
858.28 - 859.78: of this different coverage.
859.78 - 862.64: What articles lean right, what articles lean left,
862.64 - 865.4: the factuality rating, how reliable it is,
865.4 - 867.9200000000001: and who owns these different news outlets,
867.9200000000001 - 869.1800000000001: which affects the coverage.
869.1800000000001 - 871.34: This is such an important tool during this time
871.34 - 874.22: in our history and how the media is so polarized.
874.22 - 877.0200000000001: Right now they have this specific election page,
877.0200000000001 - 879.7800000000001: which helps you be alert to political spin
879.7800000000001 - 880.98: and sensationalism.

883.4200000000001 - 887.6600000000001: You love this blind spot feature they have that allows you to see stories that you wouldn't

925.74 - 927.74: Thank you, Grand News, for sponsoring today's video.
927.74 - 931.26: And with that, let's get back to the rise of Kamala Harris.
931.26 - 936.3: In 2016, Harris won the election to become California's next senator.
936.3000000000001 - 940.7800000000001: The backdrop of her victory was a country specifically the progressive communities
940.7800000000001 - 942.86: shook by the election of Donald Trump.
942.86 - 947.0200000000001: Do we retreat or do we fight? I say we fight. I intend to fight.
947.0200000000001 - 951.2600000000001: Now Harris is a prosecutor, a professional legal fighter,
951.26 - 956.54: And over the next few years, she used her experience to grill Trump cabinet officials
956.54 - 958.62: and nominees as they came before the Senate.
958.62 - 963.26: Can you think of any laws that give the government the power to make
963.26 - 965.42: decisions about the male body?
965.4200000000001 - 971.96: Has the president or anyone at the White House ever asked or suggested that you open an investigation of anyone?
971.96 - 973.22: Yes or no, please, sir.
973.22 - 974.72: Perhaps they've suggested.
974.72 - 976.2400000000001: I don't know. I wouldn't say suggest.
976.2400000000001 - 978.8000000000001: And then two years later,
978.8000000000001 - 985.7600000000001: I stand before you today to announce my candidacy for President of the United States.
985.7600000000001 - 991.1200000000001: During this campaign, like everyone in a Democratic campaign, she swung far to the left,
991.1200000000001 - 996.8800000000001: saying that she espoused pretty, like, left-leaning policies, something that has come back to bite her
996.88 - 998.96: basically every week during this election.
998.96 - 1002.24: But she didn't gain traction and she soon pulled out of the race.
1002.24 - 1004.64: I'm suspending our campaign today.
1004.64 - 1008.88: But soon she got a call from the Democratic nominee to join the ticket.
1008.88 - 1010.32: You ready to go to work?
1010.32 - 1013.12: Oh my god. I'm so many good work.
1013.12 - 1018.32: And as the vice presidential nominee during the debates especially, her experiences as a prosecutor
1018.32 - 1020.4000000000001: continue to define her reputation.
1020.4000000000001 - 1022.4000000000001: You shouldn't have appealed to Trump tax companies.
1022.4000000000001 - 1023.7600000000001: Mr. Vice President, I'm speaking.
1023.76 - 1026.36: I'm speaking.
1026.36 - 1029.6: Biden and Harris won the White House in 2020.
1029.6 - 1032.64: We did it, we did it, Charles.
1032.64 - 1035.96: But while I may be the first woman in this office,
1035.96 - 1037.52: I will not be the last.
1037.52 - 1039.6: Okay, now listen, I'm gonna be honest here.
1039.6 - 1041.96: When I started the reporting this story,
1041.96 - 1043.32: I kind of thought that this next part
1043.32 - 1044.8: was gonna be the juiciest part.
1044.8 - 1046.76: Like what does she do when she's vice president?
1046.76 - 1049.28: And it ended up being the least helpful
1049.28 - 1051.28: in understanding Kamala Harris.
1051.28 - 1053.12: I've wrestled with this and concluded
1053.12 - 1056.56: that I can't exactly learn a ton about Harris
1056.56 - 1058.72: from her four years as vice president,
1058.72 - 1061.12: partly because it was Joe Biden's administration
1061.1200000000001 - 1064.0000000000002: and the vice president doesn't really like call the shots.
1064.0000000000002 - 1066.98: And partly because of the task that she was given,
1066.98 - 1071.3000000000002: which was the duty of fixing the root causes of migration
1071.3000000000002 - 1074.2600000000002: from Central America to the US's southern border.
1074.26 - 1076.7: Like, good luck.
1076.7 - 1079.46: The mandate was go use American power
1079.46 - 1082.18: to fix poverty, systemic corruption,
1082.18 - 1085.06: and gang violence in El Salvador, Guatemala, and Honduras
1085.06 - 1087.62: so that people stop trying to come to the United States.
1087.62 - 1090.26: I've reported a lot on migration and borders,
1104.26 - 1110.74: dangerous trek to the United States' Mexico border. Do not come. Do not come."
1110.74 - 1116.94: Now, you can read her five-pillar plan, but when I read it, it just feels kind of bland
1116.94 - 1123.5800000000002: and familiar. Like the many reports with aspirational language about how the US can somehow fix systemic
1123.5800000000002 - 1129.18: problems in other countries. Stuff like this does not work, or if it does, it does not work quickly.
1129.18 - 1134.22: And to add to all of this, the American people seem to misunderstand what her task actually was,
1134.22 - 1138.38: and this includes me, and I'm embarrassed to say this, but I, like a lot of people,
1138.38 - 1142.7800000000002: thought that Kamala Harris was in charge of like the border, like this border situation,
1142.7800000000002 - 1146.94: like she was supposed to fix what we do with people coming to the border.
1146.94 - 1151.5: And all I'm seeing on TV is record numbers of migrants arriving to the border,
1151.5 - 1154.26: huge numbers of unaccompanied young people,
1154.26 - 1155.74: and not just from Central America,
1155.74 - 1157.3: but from tons of countries.
1157.3 - 1160.78: Who was the blame for this big crisis on the border?
1160.78 - 1162.54: Many looked at the vice president,
1162.54 - 1166.6599999999999: Because wasn't she the borders are in charge of all of this?
1166.6599999999999 - 1169.82: No, she wasn't, but we all thought she was.
1169.82 - 1173.02: And it didn't help that in one of her first media appearances,
1173.02 - 1176.1399999999999: she kind of waffled some pretty basic questions about this.
1176.14 - 1180.46: whole thing about the border. We've been to the border. We've been to the border. You haven't
1180.46 - 1186.6200000000001: been to the border. And I haven't been to Europe. Now, to be fair and generous here, I should say
1186.6200000000001 - 1189.14: that when you look at the most recent data,
1189.14 - 1193.3400000000001: migration to the US border has gone down quite a bit,
1193.3400000000001 - 1195.2600000000002: especially if you look at people coming
1195.2600000000002 - 1197.44: from the three countries that Kamala Harris
1197.44 - 1199.2600000000002: was tasked with fixing.
1199.2600000000002 - 1200.22: And if I were Kamala Harris,
1200.22 - 1204.8600000000001: I would be touting this, shouting it from the rooftops as a huge success of her big role.
1204.8600000000001 - 1207.72: And while I think her initiatives of like meeting with the leaders and trying to get
1207.72 - 1212.46: more business to Central America to like make jobs and fix these root problems were earnest
1212.46 - 1218.06: and well-intentioned, I just truly don't think that it's reasonable for us to evaluate her
1218.06 - 1223.58: based on any of these metrics. A vice president has no chance of fixing these deeply rooted
1223.58 - 1226.74: systemic issues in other countries in just a few years.
1226.74 - 1228.74: Okay, I've made that point.
1228.74 - 1229.74: Let's move on.
1229.74 - 1232.74: Look, I'm not a young guy.
1232.74 - 1237.02: Joe Biden is extraordinarily strong.
1237.02 - 1238.58: Bad debate nights happen.
1238.58 - 1239.58: Trust me.
1239.58 - 1243.58: President Biden has decided to step out of the race for the White House.
1243.58 - 1247.58: He is offering his full support and endorsement for Kamala Harris.
1247.58 - 1249.58: I accept your nomination.
1253.58 - 1256.58: So, here we are, kind of in modern day.
1256.58 - 1258.58: We all know what happens next.
1258.58 - 1261.8999999999999: Vice President Kamala Harris gets thrust into becoming
1261.8999999999999 - 1264.62: the presidential nominee for the Democratic Party,
1264.62 - 1267.62: as Joe Biden comes to grips with the fact that his age
1267.62 - 1270.22: and declining mental acuity was a guarantee
1270.22 - 1271.6999999999998: that he would lose and Donald Trump
1271.6999999999998 - 1272.78: would be our next president.
1272.78 - 1274.66: I really don't know what he said at the end of this,
1274.66 - 1276.7: and I don't think he knows what he said either.
1276.7 - 1278.5: So Harris is now in the spotlight,
1278.5 - 1281.66: and voters are wondering how she will be as a president.
1281.66 - 1284.42: What does her past, both personal and professional,
1284.42 - 1287.22: tell us about how she'll govern?
1287.22 - 1290.3400000000001: And the answer to that is pretty unclear.
1290.3400000000001 - 1292.3400000000001: Partly because over the course of her career,
1292.3400000000001 - 1295.26: Harris has shifted and morphed her views
1295.26 - 1298.06: based on the system and the situation that she's in.
1298.06 - 1300.94: That's what we've seen as we've talked about it here briefly.
1300.94 - 1302.9: She doesn't have a record that shows
1302.9 - 1306.02: some absolute ideological consistency,
1306.02 - 1308.42: which has been perhaps her number one critique
1308.42 - 1312.14: that Kamala's record simply is not consistent.
1312.14 - 1315.6200000000001: And yet, her character seems to be consistent.
1315.6200000000001 - 1318.3400000000001: Her lived experience is as well.
1318.3400000000001 - 1320.8200000000002: So after doing this research on her life,
1320.8200000000002 - 1322.5800000000002: I do believe her when she says,
1322.5800000000002 - 1324.18: is my values have not changed.
1324.18 - 1327.1200000000001: And this election is weird.
1327.1200000000001 - 1328.24: They're getting weirder every time,
1328.24 - 1329.68: but this one's super weird.
1329.68 - 1331.8: She's running against a showman,
1331.8 - 1334.96: a professional marketer, businessman caricature,
1334.96 - 1337.8: who campaigns on his non-political achievements,
1337.8 - 1340.82: His personality, not his policy proposals,
1340.82 - 1343.98: Kamala Harris was born to immigrant parents
1343.98 - 1345.46: who came to the United States
1345.46 - 1347.78: looking for education and opportunity.
1347.78 - 1349.62: And through hard work and endurance,
1349.62 - 1353.3799999999999: she pushed her way up through the ranks to where she is today,
1353.38 - 1357.38: all without serious scandals or dings to her character.
1357.38 - 1358.7: The only thing we could dig up on her
1358.7 - 1361.3000000000002: is that she dated the mayor of San Francisco
1361.3000000000002 - 1364.98: and that mayor may not have helped her get a job
1364.98 - 1368.1000000000001: or a position on some insurance board,
1368.1000000000001 - 1371.1000000000001: but this was like a consensual relationship.
1371.1000000000001 - 1372.9800000000002: There was no cheating, like it's not very juicy.
1372.9800000000002 - 1375.46: So regardless of what you think of her politics,
1375.46 - 1376.7: her stance on crime,
1376.7 - 1379.1000000000001: I do think it is still legitimate
1379.1000000000001 - 1381.5800000000002: to consider this personal character,
1381.58 - 1383.3799999999999: especially when we're thinking about
1383.3799999999999 - 1385.86: the most powerful person in our country,
1385.86 - 1387.46: the leader of the country.
1387.46 - 1390.06: Because leaders lead with their personal experience
1390.06 - 1392.5: as a guide, and this woman has lived a life
1392.5 - 1396.58: that allows her to relate to a lot of everyday Americans,
1396.58 - 1398.5: something that seems to be in short supply
1398.5 - 1399.86: among leaders these days.
1399.86 - 1402.8999999999999: So I don't know how Kamala Harris will govern
1402.8999999999999 - 1404.22: if she becomes president.
1404.22 - 1406.58: But from looking at her record,
1406.58 - 1411.58: I do feel fairly convinced that she has a sense of ethics
1411.58 - 1413.4199999999998: and morals and values.
1413.4199999999998 - 1415.34: And I think that is important to consider.
1415.34 - 1419.02: So if you are a voting age and you're an American,
1419.02 - 1420.6999999999998: let me tell you one thing for certain.
1420.6999999999998 - 1422.78: You are likely to not vote.
1422.78 - 1425.1399999999999: In this country, only half of the people
1441.58 - 1447.58: Um, for those still here, I just, you know, finished recording this video and, um,
1448.1399999999999 - 1452.78: I just recorded the Trump one yesterday and I'm struck with how different they are.
1452.78 - 1455.1799999999998: That could be a reflection of my personal bias.
1455.18 - 1461.02: like obviously it came down somewhere on on each of these but it's also a reflection of the life
1461.02 - 1466.7: the different lives that they've lived. Donald Trump's life is so full of tension and scandal
1466.7 - 1472.22: and kind of tantalizing details and it and very like visual you know all of his products and
1485.18 - 1490.5800000000002: It's very stark to me how these videos are going to feel differently, both because of
1490.5800000000002 - 1492.3: the way that I approach them, but also visually.
1492.3 - 1499.0600000000002: So I hope this was useful for those of you who are trying to understand Kamala Harris
1499.06 - 1501.62: and are maybe deciding who to vote for or whatever.
1501.62 - 1504.1: I hope that even in spite of some of the places I came down
1504.1 - 1506.82: and some of my perspectives,
1506.82 - 1510.4199999999998: that doesn't change the fact that you need to make up your mind
1510.42 - 1514.5800000000002: and decide and go with your gut and do what you feel and the most important thing is that you vote
1514.5800000000002 - 1519.46: that you like make it known. For those who don't know, all the music that we make for our videos
1519.46 - 1524.5: is custom made by our composer Tom Fox. He publishes all that music over on our
1524.5 - 1528.06: music channel called Chromatic and he also has it available to license. You can
1528.06 - 1532.3400000000001: listen to the whole catalog and reach out to license. All of that is in the
1532.3400000000001 - 1537.44: description. You should check out Search Party, which is our other channel run by Sam Ellis
1537.44 - 1541.7400000000002: about geopolitics and sports. If you like this channel, you'll like that. And if you're
1541.74 - 1546.1200000000001: not subscribe to the channel you should be okay that's all have a good rest of
1546.1200000000001 - 1548.56: your day bye bye
