Watching The Latest Presidential News Has Suddenly Become Exciting
The decision by President Biden that he will not be standing in the next Presidential Election has suddenly put his Vice President Kamala Harris in the starting line for becoming the next President of the United States of America.
Some thoughts
First she must gain be chosen to run for President by the Democrats, and while that isn’t a given, well, she was chosen to run for Vice President, she has been endorsed by the current President, Joe Biden.
In the short time since the decision about Joe Biden not running for President was announced, the endorsements for Harris to run as President continue to flow in!
I’m watching this happen on our television screen, which is switched to CNN at the moment, and from where I sit, as an Australian, living in Australia, it all looks a bit strange, to some extent.
We also are democratic country, but the method of government is slightly different. We vote for our favoured political party, and the leader of the party that wins will be the leader of the country (the Prime Minister).
So different but not completely different.
Some silliness now
And to be honest, I’m afraid I’ve been having fun giggling at some of the responses to this historic news. I’ve never liked Donald Trump, and the idea of “Dump that Chump Trump” appeals to my poetic soul!
