## I voted for Harris in 2024. She shouldn't run in 2028. | Opinion

Former Vice President Kamala Harris is weighing yet another presidential run in 2028, according to a conversation she had with the Rev.

“I served for four years, being a heartbeat away from the presidency of the United States,” Harris said.

What has she done to better the lives of people who voted for her in the months since she lost the presidential election?.

Instead of standing up for the people who voted for her, Harris has been absent from the conversation that Democrats should be easily winning.

My problems with Harris go beyond the tired trope that a woman, especially a woman of color, cannot be president.

Even if Democrats like her, Harris would be a weak candidate against any of the Republicans mentioned. »
