The Real MLK
In honor of Martin Luther King day, Kamala Harris officially announced her 2020 candidacy. So does she pass the MLK test? God no! Tulsi Gabbard and Kristen Gillibrand both have more support for MLK in one finger than Harris does in her whole body.
As California Attorney General, a role she only got by 0.8% by the way, she refused to prosecute Steve Mnuchin despite him illegally foreclosing on the houses of the elderly. What was the content of Mnuchin's character?
King was against the War in Vietnam. I doubt he would approve of attacking Syria or support a preemptive strike on North Korea. Kamala Harris however, does support both of those.
Harris is a supporter of gun control. King owned a gun and used it for self-defensive.
If Kamala wants to be the second MLK, she is not doing a very good job.

2018 Roundup
Well, 2018 has come to an end. And with the government shutdown, Democrats taking the House, and much more, I say this year has been . . . something.
The government shutdown has been going on for 10 days. Luckily, Donald's government shutdown is so unpopular, he has to blame everyone but himself. A recent poll found that only half of all Americans surveyed blamed the man who was given a spending bill that could have stopped the shutdown and didn't sign it. Or, only half of all Americans blamed the person who caused the shutdown.
Of course, the shutdown was over Donald Trump wanting taxpayers to fund his wall. I would give Trump credit for following through on his campaign promises if he didn't also promise us that Mexico would pay for the wall. What happened to that? Oh, and if the promise wasn't really stupid.
Going into 2020, things are only getting worse for Democrats. Elizebeth Warren announced her run unofficially today. I think she would be a positive influence on the race, even if she's only one-half correct that's still better than who else I'm seeing.
CNN did a segment today on how Bernie can't win because he's an old white man. Despite the fact that our current president is an old white man (the spray tan makes it hard to tell, I know). They also tried to call him a pervert, although when he's running against the grouper in chief, I don't really think that matters all that much.
Seriously though, let's just all take a minute and be happy Beto O'Rourke won't be president. All the polls seem to say it will either be Joe Biden or Bernie Sanders. I like Biden, I think he was a very good Vice President under Obama and a pretty decent Senator, even if he came in just at the time when Democrats couldn't figure out how they should feel about race. Rather either of them will run is still up in the air, but important news is where the polls line up.
Of course, CNN is trying to make Kamla Harris 2020 a thing. It's not going to be a thing, but CNN really doesn't seem to care. They've put her as there most likely to be the nomination for two months in a row, despite no poll done by anyone that isn't CNN saying this.
Of course, the only candidate who has has a snowball's chance in hell is Richard Ojeda. He's a good center-left candidate, but he's not bad. He believes in healthcare for all, universal education, and increased taxes on the rich.
So what will happen in 2019? Let's find out together.
