A President-to-be's birthday

 Happy birthday Vice President Kamala Harris. Born in Oakland CA in 1964.

NOT a photo of baby Kamala, but just a reminder of how small and vulnerable we all are at birth.

I just read the Wikipedia article (with lots of references) about Kamala's life. The talking points usually just give this or that detail, and I wanted to piece together how she came to be where she is on this 60th birthday, running for President of the US in an election in 2 weeks.

Here's the link, if you're lazy. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kamala_Harris

I watch several news programs, as well as read the news links on line. This election is as tight as ever there was, but I have hopes that she will win. Our democracy depends upon it.

Today's quote:

Victoria Woodhull once wrote, “Let women issue a declaration of independence sexually, and absolutely refuse to cohabit with men until they are acknowledged as equals in everything, and the victory would be won in a single week.” First woman to run for Presidency in 1872
