I remember Biden’s promise as you do but suspect many women think that type behavior by men about as common for men as breathing so they likely would roll their eyes. Just thinking back to what I am hearing or reading. Thanks for the feedback!!
"Kamala Harris appeals to millions of Americans because of what she is not: the stereotypical European white male moving up the wrungs of a ladder to a seat held for him because of his background, gender or race."
She may not be the stereotypical European white male...but it seems clear she moved into a seat held for her because of her gender and her race. If my memory is correct, President Biden vowed to select a female running mate of color.
From a CNN article on 30 August 2019: " Former Vice President Joe Biden said Tuesday that when picking a running mate, he would prefer someone who was “of color and/or a different gender.”
I have no issues with her desire to continue moving her career up the ladder but I am suspect of her having this opportunity provided to her by virtue of her current position vs. actually competing with others in her party for the nomination given the circumstances.
