    Policies aside, I like her relative youth; that she has a clean criminal record; and that I think she will surround herself with competent people.

    Hotness is relative. That being said she is infinitely superior to a character created for reality television. The business genius created for the Apprentice by Mark Burnett and NBC bears little relationship to the real Donald Trump and his long history of failures.

    The question is a bit unfair, Bluke. It’s kind of like asking someone the benefits of being electrocuted without letting them compare that outcome to the experience of being eaten by a shark.

    Speaking of electrocution, she doesn't talk about electrocuting sharks which is a plus in my book

    Your reply is posting a picture in which she is younger and more attractive that could be a 90s R&B album cover? All this tells me is she's aged like a fine wine, and should possibly release an album.

    I’m rarely surprised in too hot.
    But hearing that someone finds Kamala Harris to be attractive…well that blows me away.
    Good for you tho man.

    Loyalty. As opposed to the traitor President who either outright tried to have his VP killed or dawdled whether he should do anything about it.

    I can see how this election is such a tough choice.

    He disagreed with my post that Trump is an uggo, which I take to mean he thinks Trump is hot. Which hey, no judgment. Different strokes and all.

    Kamala is your basic sorority ditz. I''d put her IQ at 110. About 1/4 of whites and 1/3 of Asians are smarter than Harris. She attended a HBCU while her sister Maya went to UC Berkeley. Kamala was probably a disappointment to her academic parents but somehow she overcame her shortcomings to get to where she is today. Willie Brown taught her some long, hard lessons and here she is. An excellent example to young women about how to get ahead.

    We had a thread a few years back that involved Nancy Pelosi admittedly having nice cans. So nothing should surprise anyone .

    It's a bit strange to continuously see downvotes from someone who never actually posts.
