Kamala Harris Makes History as the First Woman Elected Vice President of the United States

Maybe she’ll use her power to free all the black men who went to jail because of her.

The media marching lock-step to declare themselves electors should enrage every thinking person regardless of political leanings. If your intelligence is not insulted by this I question your intelligence entirely.

Proud to have our first women minority Vice President of the United States.

[greenonions]

Nothing resonates when it's all BS.

[ferchosker]

I hope they check some states and if there was fraud make them pay for it.

[Inthedark]

Didnt they do this with Hillary Clinton becoming first female president.

The only reason I voted Kamala for President, is it would be Historic. I haven't yet researched her past political record, policy views, etc., but she seems like a great person . I'm just happy I could vote for the first woman. It just makes me feel good that I can tell my daughter, "Anything is possible."

[bonezyjonezy]

74 days to go. Let's hope Trump doesn't nuke something.

[ginamitembe]

My heart is busting with much pride Vice President Kamala Harris!!! God's timing for you is NOW!! All your past victories were preparing you for THIS most needed VICTORY!! Congratulations!! May God richly bless you with wisdom both of you President Joe Biden, how to deal and solve the mess left behind by the Reality President! With God's help ALL things are possible!!

She was not the first person of color. In 1928, Charles Curtis — a Native American lawmaker and member of the Kaw Nation — was elected as President Herbert Hoover's vice president. Do your homework.

[jimmykouba]
