Kamala Harris Gives Acceptance Speech at the DNC
With Joe Biden pushed to the sidelines, Kamala Harris had the stage all to herself Thursday evening at the Democrat National Convention.
Since becoming the nominee, she has energized Democrats. Last night, she took the opportunity to reach beyond her own party.

“There are people of various political views watching tonight,” Harris told the crowd. “I want you to know: I promise to be a president for all Americans. You can always trust me to put country above party and self.”
Despite being vice president for three and a half years, her narrative hasn’t been fully cemented.
One-third of voters don’t really know much about what she stands for. In her mission to define herself, she highlighted her career as a federal prosecutor.
In her speech, Harris had a few choice words for Donald Trump. She spent large portions of it attacking him. “Donald Trump is an unserious man,” she told fellow Democrats gathered in Chicago. “But the consequences of putting Donald Trump back in the White House are extremely serious.”
But what about the seriousness of policy? Her recent economic proposal of price controls to bring down inflation went over poorly, even with liberal analysts. Thursday evening, she continued to be relatively vague. “We will create what I call an ‘opportunity economy,’ an opportunity economy where everyone has the chance to compete and a chance to succeed.”
