It’s our economy & strength, not her DNA, that’ll decide Biden’s choice Kamala Harris’ view of India#KamalaHarris #NationalInterest

Let go of all those Indian descendants and professionals who have chosen other countries as their home. Let them serve their home countries, and let us not expect them to be loyal to their parents’ or grandparents’ countries. We are a mature country, democracy and old civilization. We don’t need their endorsements. It is also unfair to NRI who chose to come back and serve our motherland.

How Joe Biden chose Kamala Harris: A search that forged new stars, friends and rivalries (Courtesy #economictimes #newyorktimes ) — Though Harris was seen from the start as a front-runner, Biden did not begin the process with a favorite in mind, and he settled on Harris only after an exhaustive review that forged new political alliances, deepened existing rivalries and further elevated a cohort of women as leaders in their party.

  • Is she simply unpopular in her home state?
  • Harris was one of four finalists for the job, along with Sen. Elizabeth Warren of Massachusetts, Gov. Gretchen Whitmer of Michigan and Susan E. Rice, the former national security adviser.
  • But in the eyes of Biden and his advisers, Harris alone covered every one of their essential political needs. She assured loyalty too!

(All credit to Biden and team for choosing an aggressive rival to be the candidate. After all, there are no permanent friends or enemies in politics. Kamala was not the first choice. I still wonder Sen Warren would have made a better choice? Or was the preference for a ‘black/woman’ leader instead?

As a leader, we have a choice to get the ‘best’ option available or opt for someone who you are comfortable with. Looking back what has been your practice, has it helped you to move closer to your #FullPotentialLeadership? #Nepotism !

Not ‘come-aah-lah’, it’s karma(la)! When Kamala Harris made the US pause: Comma rhymes with ‘momma’ making ‘comma-la’ sound like Bengali variant of Kamala.

  • come-aah-lah’ — was the way a professional wrestler (also surnamed Harris but nicknamed The Ugandan Giant) pronounced his stage name.
