Kamala!

There is no lack of black Americans making positive, reflective statements on what Kamala Harris’ nomination to a major party ticket means to them. There is no lack of Indian Americans doing the same.
Officially, the Jamaican Foreign Minister publicly congratulated Harris with a tweet. But nothing from Narendra Modi’s administration. Not that the Modi administration has to say anything, just that the silence there is noteworthy.

I had occasion to spend about 3 hours in a waiting room yesterday morning where CNN was on the TV.
If Kamala had been a male, the only term to describe the CNN coverage would have been a verbal fellating. The talking heads went on, and on, AND ON, about how historic her selection was, how she's a "powerful woman" (who dropped out of the race before the first primary, of course), and how she brings a "new face" to the Democratic party.
Nothing, nothing, was said about her history as a Senator, Congresswoman, or politician at the local level in California.
It reminded me of Bernie Goldberg's book, "A Slobbering Love Affair."

@George-K LOL That is funny! One way for her to claim the "biggest crowd ever!!"
