Little girl in Hemingway, SC, stands up to ask @KamalaHarris: “Is it possible that if I try hard enough I can be president?” 😭

A young girl just asked Sen. Harris if she can be president one day. Bit of a Hallmark moment for the crowd. Harris says absolutely and that we all have the ability to be leaders, it’s just a matter of when you decide to turn that on. Says the girl is off to a good start #SC2020 – at Chavis Community Center

“Is it possible that, if I try hard enough, I can be president?” a girl asked @KamalaHarris at this rural SC town hall. Harris told her yes.

almost as good as Michelle Obama.

In addition,

She doesn't offer a lot of free-stuff to create a cult

and

She is not afraid to have her tax returns be in public.

It is too bad for some that she is not "pure" enough for some.

I like her A LOT. I can easily see her in any of several top positions - from POTUS to SCOTUS, and Attorney General thrown in for good measure.

Harris is a terrific role model and from what I've seen thus far she's smart, direct and tough as nails. The fact she has this kind of outreach to young girls is a plus/plus. She's a really strong candidate with the ability to inspire.
