Radio host Charlamagne Tha God emphasizes the importance of Vice President Kamala Harris articulating her policy positions in order to win over undecided voters.
In a recent interview with CNN's Pamela Brown, radio host and commentator Charlamagne Tha God urged Vice President Kamala Harris to prioritize discussing her policy proposals in upcoming interviews, including her scheduled appearance on Thursday. He emphasized that undecided voters need to understand Harris's stance on key issues in order to make informed decisions about her candidacy.
"Those are her positions, and she has to speak to that, explain that every single chance she gets, because there is a lot of excitement in the party, a lot of new registered voters, a lot of new voters registered, but there is still a lot of undecideds, there are still those hypothetical swing voters, there are still those independents," Charlamagne argued. "And if all those folks got questions, she has to answer them."

He highlighted the importance of Harris's policy positions resonating with voters who may not be solely motivated by "vibes" or charisma. "Campaigning is explaining yourself and your policies to everybody, and don't let social media fool you," Charlamagne said. "People want policy, people want something tangible that they can feel, that can make them feel better about their circumstances and she's going to have to go out there every single day and explain how she is going to do that for the American people."
Angela Rye, podcast host and CEO of Impact Strategies, joined Charlamagne in the discussion, expressing her belief that Harris is the "most qualified person" to run for the presidency. She argued that Harris has been clear about her policy proposals, even if her website is still under development due to the unexpected nature of Joe Biden's withdrawal from the race.

"I think there's an acknowledgment that we all have to make, that she is doing the work she has been clear about her policy proposals, her website might not be all the way already because all of us were surprised by Joe Biden pulling out," Rye said. "But those things are all in the works and I think she'd been very clear on this bus tour, throughout Georgia, all at the DNC, she's been clear about what she wants to do and she'll continue to be clear."
Harris's recent gains in key battleground states, according to a new Fox News poll, further emphasize the significance of clear policy communication. The surveys show that Harris and Trump are virtually tied in Arizona, Georgia, and Nevada, while Trump holds a slight lead in North Carolina. Harris's performance in these states has improved since prior Fox News polls conducted before Biden dropped out of the race.

By emphasizing the importance of policy, Charlamagne and Rye underscore the need for Harris to effectively articulate her platform and engage with undecided voters who are seeking concrete solutions rather than relying solely on personal charisma. Harris's upcoming CNN interview will provide a crucial opportunity for her to showcase her policy positions and connect with the American people.
