Last week’s debates have sparked important conversations, ones that need to be deeply reflected on and discussed. Electability is the question of the day, as is: Can a woman be elected to the presidency in 2020? I read the syndicated columnists and listen to MSNBC daily. I speak with people face to face and on social media; I listen to their concerns and opinions, and voice my own. The division is generational; it’s about gender and race, and progress. Kamala Harris came away from the debates in a much stronger position; she exemplified leadership, and has demonstrated that she can take the case to Trump, but some folks were upset that she challenged Joe Biden, whom many view as the best & brightest hope for beating Trump. However the current Quinnipiac poll shows Biden’s approval rate at 22 percent, Harris 20, Warren 14, Sanders 13, and Buttigieg, 5 percent. More of us everyday feel that government needs to be better reflected by those it governs, and more compassionately.
