Vice President Kamala Harris has yet to hold a formal press conference since emerging as the Democratic nominee 65 days ago. This has led to questions about why she is avoiding scrutiny and whether she is prepared for the demands of the presidency.
Vice President Kamala Harris has been conspicuously absent from the public eye since emerging as the Democratic nominee 65 days ago. She has not held a formal press conference, given few interviews, and has largely avoided public events.
Kamala Harris: Hiding from Voters and the Media
This has led to growing questions about why Harris is avoiding scrutiny and whether she is prepared for the demands of the presidency.
Some have suggested that Harris is simply following the advice of her handlers, who believe that she is not ready for the spotlight. Others have speculated that Harris is afraid of saying something that could damage her chances of winning the election.
Kamala Harris: Hiding from Voters and the Media
Whatever the reason, Harris's absence from the public eye is a troubling sign for voters who are trying to make an informed decision about who they want to lead the country.
As the vice president, Harris is second in line to the presidency. She would be responsible for taking over the country if something happened to President Joe Biden.
It is essential that voters have a chance to hear from Harris and assess her qualifications for the job. She needs to answer questions about her policies, her experience, and her vision for the country.
So far, Harris has not been forthcoming with information. She has not held a press conference where she takes questions from reporters. She has not given many interviews. And she has not participated in any debates.
This is not acceptable behavior for someone who is seeking to be the leader of the free world.
Voters have a right to know what Harris stands for and what she would do as president. She needs to come out of hiding and start answering questions.
In a recent op-ed, Ross Barkan wrote, "Kamala is running to control a nuclear arsenal that could annihilate civilization one hundred times over."
"We're not allowed to open up the hood or kick the tires?" Barkan asked. "She's only running to be leader of the free world."
Barkan is right. Voters need to know more about Kamala Harris. She needs to come out of hiding and start answering questions.
