Regardless of what some may think of Ms. Harris or politics in these times in general, in just 100 days or so she ran one of the best American presidential campaigns I have ever witnessed in 40 years of working on and or observing such races.
There are many sad that she did not win, and I am one of them. And you, we, have every right to wonder what could have been. We can talk and debate certain national and global matters another day.
Today, this week, this month, for a long minute, folks have every right to express every emotion they feel about what awaits us. Love and peace (non-violence) and joy and working together and bringing people together are part of the solutions for the human family, not hate and violence and fear and ignorance and confusion and meanness and greed and division.
I am more determined than ever to do my part, in all ways, to make this place just and equal and fair and humane for all people. It will not be easy, but we must. We owe it to the younger people and children not yet born. And we owe it to all who came before us, the elders and those who are no longer here who made it possible for us to keep pushing and fighting the good fight.
I went to sleep so very sad last night, but woke up determined. And so it is. And so it is….
A Message from
KAMALA HARRIS
My heart is full. Full of gratitude for the trust that you have placed in me, full of love for our country, and full of resolve.
I know you gave so much of yourselves to this fight. And I am so grateful to you.
The outcome of this election is not what we wanted. And it is not what we fought for. But the light of America’s promise will always burn bright – as long as we never give up and keep fighting.
While I concede this election, I do not concede the fight that fueled this campaign.
The fight for the ideals that reflect America at its best: Freedom, opportunity, fairness, and dignity. That is a fight I will never give up.
I will never give up the fight for a future where every American can pursue their dreams. Where the women of America have the freedom to make decisions about their own bodies. The fight to protect our students and our streets from gun violence. The fight for our democracy.
