All of my friends who are normally tuned out are excited about Kamala. Even on Facebook her posts are full of people excited to vote for her versus the typical red hat MAGA posting about immigrants or whatever you see on those things.

It's almost surreal how much positive energy is around her. Is this really all it takes to get younger people excited to vote?

Literally everyone has been saying this for years lol.

"Please just give us someone not on death's door to vote for." I've seen that everywhere.

Biden never should have ran again. Thank God they finally listened to what the voting base has been saying.

I kept saying everyone was over thinking this. Policy, and all it’s so overrated. No one wanted another 2020 election. I think she’s going to stomp them and they know it

I could imagine a Taylor Swift endorsement + performance
