Accidental presidents have not always been bad--Teddy Roosevelt and LBJ (1963 & 64). Maybe Kamala Harris will be the next one.
I watched Kamala Harris' defense of Biden after the debate. What I kept asking myself was "where has she been for the last 4 years?". This is the person that I got behind in the 2020 primary season but then she go…

I watched Kamala Harris' defense of Biden after the debate. What I kept asking myself was "where has she been for the last 4 years?". This is the person that I got behind in the 2020 primary season but then she got mired in policy wonkiness of the pundits. But now, suddently, she was back to her position of strength.
She is a logical choice and will be able to "prosecute" Trump for his work in crafting an women's healthcare mess and for his incessent lying. A spirited prosecution of the liar-in-chief may just be what we need now.
The two examples of "accidental presidents" (cute term) that you cited became president via assassination. I'm sure your not suggesting....although Kamala Harris would serve well as president. Hopefully Biden leaves office by his own volition.
Kamala's skill & intelligence is one reason I don't get very concerned about Biden's poor performance. Also, even though Biden has 8 years on me, I've noted, for at least 5 years my own cognitive abilities seem greatly diminished, late in the day, when fatigue sets in; and my voice also gets raspy. I don't think that's unusual for people in their 7th or eighth decades of life, but that doesn't mean they are not sharp throughout most of the day, or most of the time. Biden is a man driven by a compelling need to save what's left of our democracy, that's under assault, I tend to agree with the existence of that compelling threat. I also think that observing that threat, and the persistent popularity of the likes of Donald Trump, breaks statesman Biden's heart. Should Biden falter, I also think we would be in good hands, if the country were under the direction of a President Harris. Far better than in the hands of a business fraudster, convicted rapist, election cheater, serial justice obstructor, serial jury and witness tamperer, indicted for espionage and someone so self serving they would appoint radical right wingers to the Supreme Court, just to get the fundamentalist Christian vote; slipping by voters his party's hidden intent to kill regulations that keep us all safe. (Think about the overturning of Chevron Deference and know that the Roberts Court is just getting started shoving their wacky fascist ideology down Americans' collective throats. Dismantling Voting Rights & Roe v Wade was just the start of a much more sinister conservative fascist agenda, that will be implemented with Project 2025, if we don't shut down Trump & his radical insurrection loving party, first.)

I could not agree more Dr. Doug!!!
IF Joe must go then give the top job to her. She will tear out that fucking liars throat on national television.
I am not a CNN viewer and now more than ever I will never watch anything that they do or say again!
She’s been very active both domestically & diplomatically, but our press couldn’t be bothered to cover her.
No horse race Sue, no controversy, no clicks, no eyeballs, no ads, no ads no money, no money no jobs, no careers, no profits, no share holder value.
Kamala’s been there all along. And she’s become stronger along the way due to her tutelage by the masterful statesman, President Biden.

Of course not.

Dr Doug Gilbert, I liked Gerald Ford as an accidental President also!
