FOR DEMOCRATS, KAMALA HARRIS DOESN’T NEED POLICIES. PREFERENCES ARE ENOUGH. Republicans are frustrated that Vice President Kamala Harris has not outlined specific policy proposals in her last-minute run for president. She has apparently abandoned some of the views she held during her failed campaign for the Democratic nomination in 2019, but no one knows for sure because information about Harris’s positions has come out in dribs and drabs through spokespeople or unattributed news stories. 

But look at the ecstatic crowds of delegates at the Democratic National Convention in Chicago, where Harris will accept her party’s nomination tonight. Do you think they want detailed policy proposals? Not at all. And do you think they consider themselves in the dark about what Harris would do as president? Again, not at all.
