Kamala Harris loves to say that as Americans “we have a lot more in common than what separates us.” That’s a major breath of fresh air after nearly a decade of “they’re* destroying our country but I’ll fix it up really fast.” (“They” varies depending on the audience and the subject but most often it’s Democrats or immigrants.)
Besides being a much more positive message for America I’d say that Kamala Harris not only recognizes that we have much more in common but she knows what values we share as shown in the fact that almost all her policy proposals are supported by a majority of Americans.
Both parties can learn from Harris’s rallying cry. Republicans would do well to stop trying to divide the nation and Democrats should recognize that what unites us goes beyond her proposals. While Trump’s proposals are virtually all much less popular that the top ⅓ of Harris’s proposals it is still true that half of Trump’s proposals receive majority support. (That also validates what the Vice President keeps saying about being willing to accept a good idea regardless of where it originates.)
