Didn't she go to Quebec schools k-12 and implied she was bussed around Oakland, Cali.? Her mom didn't move to Oakland until Kamala was a college student at Howard.

I wish I had the same feeling about the senate.
I also have a feeling about the Supreme Court but I’ll save that for after the election.

Harris will win. Ds will lose the Senate and the House is up in the air. She’ll have her work cut out for her.

I personally think that would be an ideal outcome.

Okay but could we please just get rid of Ted Cruz?

Yes, I would love that too. Harris wins, Cruz goes, Rs win Senate and House.

Get rid of Trump and MAGAs forever but repudiate the insane extreme left. That would be awesome.

Nope. The republicans have to be taught a lesson in the house. You need to come clean about how bad the republicans have become. You can’t keep blaming the handful of squad members. Not when the entire republican house caucus has become a dysfunctional cesspool of right wing extremists.

Agreed. I am tired of the BS both sides stuff. The majority of Dems are not extreme left. I'm tired of this crap. Trump and his supporters need to go if we will ever make progress in this country. We need people willing to work together. In order for that to happen, the MAGA lying and grievance train needs to go away.

I agree that the MAGA grievance train needs to go away, but I think it is bizarre to say that the current Democratic Party doesn’t give significant power to the extreme left wing.

In any event, hopefully Harris will defeat Trump in a landslide (which I am increasingly thinking is possible), Cruz gets booted, the Senate goes Republican, and I guess I can live with a Democratic House if it’s close and the moderates win their races.

Why do you say that? Who are these people of power in the Democratic party that are extreme left wing?

Most of Biden’s staffers, for one. That’s how we ended up with deeply unpopular nonsense like gutting Title IX. Biden himself is a moderate but was too incapacitated to control his radical staffers.

Biden campaigned as a moderate but governed as an extreme progressive, which is why he is so wildly unpopular now.

lol, you are unhinged. Who are you hoping will believe this bs?

Only Kamala could think that having dual -HD parents is "middle class". Her dad was a blue collar Stanford professor! LOL. Seriously, what percent of American households are dual PHD parents? It has to be less than 1 in 50,000...say a 7,000 households or so in the entire country!

Maybe that's why she can't connect with anyone who isn't doling out appointments to government jobs.

No not even close.

Born in Oakland
Oakland age 0-2, 1964-66
Champagne, IL age 2-6, 1966-70
Berkeley age 6-12, 1970-76 (during which time she was bussed from majority black Berkeley flatlands to Thousand Oaks Elementary (which before busing was 95% white)
Montreal age 12-18, 1976-1981

I don't know where her mom lived while Kamala was at Howard but she actually attended college in Canada for one year (Varnier college) before transferring to Howard.

It is not unusual for kids of professors to move around like this because tenure track jobs are very rare and non-tenure track jobs are not always very stable. I don't know why people talk about her parents having PhDs as some sign of great privilege. No one knows better than conservatives that PhDs rarely make much money and don't have great job security -- that's why they discourage their kids from going into academia. It's actually a very difficult life for most.

PhDs do not make a lot of money. Even at Stanford they mostly do not make a lot of money. It is a middle class job for most. Her parents are also both immigrants and it's harder to build wealth even with decent middle class jobs when you come from absolutely nothing -- they had to survive on grad student incomes as newlyweds and new parents and it took years for them to get established enough in their careers to provide more stability for their kids.

Only DCUM wouldn't understand that Stanford/Berkeley PHD parents aren't middle class.

Literally the first answer from google:

Assistant Professor: $128,000–$152,000 for the 2025–2026 academic year
Associate Professor: $165,000–$180,000 for the 2025–2026 academic year
Full Professor: $190,000–$320,000 for the 2025–2026 academic year

Her PhD parents were tenure-track professors. On what planet is that "unstable" and not immensely privileged? Especially in the early 80s when only 15-20% of American parents even had a BA. How were her and her sister discouraged from academia when they both have BAs and JDs? Kamala spent 8 years in college (5 years of undergrad and 3 years of law school).

Most of America believes this. It’s only those people in the DCUM bubble that don’t. That’s why this is a close election.

They weren't tenure track her entire life and spent a ton of time moving around and taking academic jobs where they were offered-- that's why Harris moved 3x during her childhood and it's part of why her parents split up (and why she didn't live near her dad for most of her childhood).

And no one said Kamala or her sister were discouraged from academia. I said that conservatives discourage their kids from getting PhDs because it is NOT lucrative. Notice me there Harris or her sister got a PhD? They got law degrees. They chose not to spend their careers in academia.

I have a BA and a JD and my mom never went to college and my dad has a BA. Like Harris, I grew up middle class with some family instability and sought out educational opportunities that would offer me greater stability as an adult.

Hello DCUM bubble person.

Am I in the bubble or is it the person who thinks college professors are well off? Because one of us has a very myopic (and incorrect) view of what life is like for academics, and it's not me.
