There are many good choices Joe Biden has from which to pick his vice president. But there is one who stands out from the crowd: Sen.
Kamala Harris (D-Calif.). She has the credentials that are crucial for the job and she is ready to serve on day one. Harris has been vetted in a national campaign and represents the next generation of leaders.
There are many factors that set her apart from some of the other choices, including that she is the child of immigrants. Her mother immigrated to the United States from India and her father from Jamaica.
Her mother is a breast-cancer scientist who earned her doctorate from UC Berkeley and her father is an Emeritus Professor of Economics at Stanford.
