    A just released New Hampshire poll for the 2024 Democratic nomination showed Pete Buttigieg narrowly edging out a win against Biden 17% to 16% followed by Sen. Elizabeth Warren (D-Mass.) and California Gov. Gavin Newsom (D), who each came in at 10 percent. A handful of other Democrats, in addition Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-Vt.), received less than 10 percent.

    When respondents were asked about their second choice for their 2024 presidential candidate, Sen. Cory Booker (D-N.J.) received the most support at 14 percent, followed by Buttigieg at 13 percent.

    Where's Kamala Harris? Her name doesn't even rank high enough to even be mentioned, even if she is one of the ones who polled at less than 10%.

    This is in reference to Ms-President-in-waiting Harris? Why, wasn't it always clear that her selection was in order to insert a non-elected President of correct persuasions?

    Harris is terrible. Hardly anyone wanted her in the primaries. She got the nod for VP to shore up support with minorities.

    The only way she'll sit at the Resolute Desk is if Biden dies or is otherwise removed from office.

    I talked to someone who is a staunch Biden supporter and he doesn't even like Kamala. Biden picked her because he liked Obama, but couldn't tell the difference between her and Obama.

    How would it feel to be the head of state of a powerful country and have Ms Harris on the other side of the table?
    In other words, any time now.

    I wasn't thrilled with Biden's pick. I didn't like Harris when she was running for the nomination. I'm not surprised that she is not a top pick for 2024.

    Actually, I am surprised by this. Many on the left have proclaimed that since she is a black woman she has to be the current runner up and that democrats risk alienating black voters if they don't just automatically choose her. The VP is usually the heir apparent, or at least in mentionable status. She wasn't even mentioned.

    There are many cases where the VP was not the heir apparent or even mentionable status, so this is nothing new. Just because there might be some people who at some time said because she's black, blah blah blah, doesn't mean everyone else feels the same way. The bottom line is she hasn't shown herself worthy.

    You might recall Democrats kicked her ass out of the Democrat primaries almost before they even got started.

    A lot of people on this forum have said it HAS to be Harris.

    Don't read much, do you? Look, I'm not going to go through every post in every thread to try to prove this to you. If I found ten links to prove it, you would be saying that 10 is a very anecdotally low number and doesn't mean anything in the scheme of things. It really isn't going to ruin my day if you don't believe it.

    For the most part, I don't memorize names and associate them to certain posts, especially from the other side. Like I said, I don't really care if you believe me or not. It's not important enough to debate about.

    when you look at who else may run, Kamala is no worse than the rest of the field.

    Where's Kamala Harris?
    Right in line behind Biden.
    After her is Ms Pelosi.
    Gives one pause.

    So democrats really like Corey Booker? He's such a fake! Do you remember when he fabricated a story about a made up drug dealer/gangster that he supposedly new?
    This is the choice of democrats?
    Even more pathetic than I could have even imagined

    SAD!

    LOL - Where is Kamala Harris.

    Perhaps, she's exploring the root causes of her unpopularity?

    Even though I can't stand her for many reasons, being VP can be a huge disadvantage. Seems to be a position where the president gives you impossible jobs that he doesn't want himself so that his VP can get thrown under the bus instead of the president when the impossible job can't be done.
