    At various times over the last 10 years there have been different versions of the satirical “ANY FUNCTIONING ADULT” for president yard signs and bumper stickers, and we thought we were joking, but how true it is.

    And it’s amazing how little function it takes to make a difference. Like, cognitive function, for instance, turns out to be really refreshing in a potential world leader.

      Refreshing indeed. Harris at least looks like she can answer the ‘what year is it and do you know who the current president is?’ questions without needing a ten minute nap prior to answering.

      Heck, she might even have a good idea as to the price of a gallon of milk! The US might just end up with something resembling actual leadership for the next four years.

        She does more than look the part. Did you see her walking up stairs to enter a plane and a reporter asked her a question? This young one turned her head, answered the question, all while still walking UPSTAIRS. I was like a bit shocked, after getting used to Biden’s geriatric ass. Was this woman a superhero?

        She has a lot of that energy and I couldn’t imagine one of the 2 olds doing that.
