Say she runs in 2028.
Are her chances better having run and lost in 2024, or if she had been on a 2nd Biden/ Harris ticket, whether winning or losing?

Said otherwise, if Biden hadn’t stepped aside, would she be in a better position?

Better having run and lost in 2024. She was kept in the shadows the whole time. Even Biden was. That’s why everyone was excited again and hopeful when she came up to the plate and people saw what she could do. She wasn’t given that chance before. She has countless policies and experience that she

would have time to talk about in the coming years that she didn’t have because it was a 107 day campaign. Candidates typically get close to a year to talk about all of that. Coming within 1.4% of the popular vote, only 200,000 votes in total from swing states, in three months all while being

a Black/South Asian woman is damn near impossible. No one else was going to win, she has a gift of communicating with you. That’s why her rallies were packed. If she runs again, that excitement and hope comes back. People are angry, they wanted change. She can still provide that change.

FWIW, in this pod Pelosi says she doesn’t think we’ll see a female president in her lifetime… and she just filed to run again in 2026, at age 84…

Keyword, In HER lifetime. Like you said, she's EIGHTY FOUR, soooo...😐

Regardless, after 4 more years of trumpian hell, terrified voters are likely gonna CRAWL back to Nice Safe Auntie Kamala, just like they threw themselves at Nice Safe Uncle Joe 4 years ago.

Those ARE the questions.

Well she'll have a hell of an argument/guilt trip in the primary: She was the ONLY one who stepped out to run in an impossible election.

The first two lines completely make the argument that post 2028 (assuming Trump is alive then), America needs a generational change.

If she won in 2028, Kamala would be our 1st Gen X president bc 1964 is the cusp year.
