Column: Kamala Harris won’t cure what ails the Democratic Party

William Henry Harrison, the ninth president of the United States, was a British -born last commander and the first member of the Whig Party to win the White House. He gave the longest opening address in history for about two hours and was the first president who was the first chairman to die for only 31 days.

Oh, there’s a little more Trivia about the man who gave us the slogan “Tippecanoe and Tyler”. Harrison was the last politician who lost his first presidential election and won his next election (Thomas Jefferson and Andrew Jackson directed it in front of him). Richard Nixon just lost to win on the road. (Grover Cleveland and Trump, the winner, the only two people who will lose and then again winner.)

Everyone else who disappeared in Harrison’s first attempt and loses again in the next election. Democratic name Stevenson and Republican Thomas Dewey ran twice and lost twice. Henry Clay and William Jennings Bryan ran three times in a row and lost (Clay ran on three different party tickets). The voters seem to not like the losers.

They are not encouraging results for Kamala Harris, who announced that he would not run for the governor in California last week, and shows that he wants to go another in the White House.

But history is not what needs to be worried. Here and now. Democratic party wildly popular. Net foryyet (30 points) is almost three times the GOP (11 points). The Democratic Party is not more popular than any time in the last 35 years. When Donald Trump’s popularity with the democrats should have the opposite effect, 63% of Americans have a negative view of the party.

From where? Because the Democrats are angry with their own parties – because he could not get an obstacle to Trump and now he was in the office. Distribution as my colleague Nick Catgoio puts on“Even the Democrats learned to hate the democrats.”

Not all Harris’s mistake. Indeed, the lion’s crime share is going to the coterie of Joe Biden and the activists who encourage him to run again.

Harris’s dilemma symbolizes democratic discontent to the party. This discontent is not monolithic. For the progresses, the objection is that the democrats do not fight enough. The problem for the more -centered wing of the party is fighting for the wrong things that the democrats are left too much to the cultural war and identity policy. Combining both factions is the desire to win a visceral. This is strange for a politician known for the best losing.

Almost the only reason why Harris was positioned as a candidate in 2024 was that there was a choice of diversity. Biden was clear that a woman and later an African American running friend would choose. And the same dynamic made it impossible to mislead it when Biden retreated.

Of course, most of them do not see the democratic race and gender as a problem and should not be abstract. Indeed, each VP selection is a variety of diversity selection, including white men. Running friends are selected to appeal to a part of a coalition.

In other words, Harris’s problem is not his race or gender; The inability to address voters in a way that expands the democratic coalition. Democrats need someone who can turn Trump voters to win. HE did not lose Due to low democratic participation, he lost because he was not forced to a voter voter.

Gezazlı made his voice like the dean of a student at a small liberal art college. Except for reproductive rights, convictions seemed to have been prepared by focus groups at a time when voters wanted originality. Worse, he agreed that Harris Biden’s insistence did not take away from him.

When San Francisco and California are combined with pandering to the progressive election zones learned for years, such club imitations make it an excellent solution to a problem that does not exist.

Stephen Colbert’s first interview since the Office is the option to appear in the Late The Late Show .. The CBS recently insisted that it ended both Colbert and the show, that it was a completely business decision. The reason for the decision of the broadcasting network was due to the narrowing Colbert’s expensive show to a very small, very Trump slice of voters.

“I don’t want to go back to the system. I think it’s broken,” Harris lamented It disrupts the “surrender ın of those who see the lack of“ naive ”and“ incompetent ”“ leadership ve and the “surrender ın of those who see themselves as“ naive ”and“ incompetent ”lack of leadership”.

They all have collected Colbert’s ideologically determined audience. But this is not the audience that the Democrats should win. That is why, if the Democrats nominate him again, he will probably go to history in response to a Trivia question. And “Who was the 48th president of the United States?”

  • The communication style is criticized as an extreme generic and focus group guided, deprived of the originality necessary to attract Trump voters, and its reluctance to move away from Biden and its leadership is seen as choice obligations[1].
