Neither Hillary Clinton nor Kamala Harris have historical value or come close to the abilities of Margaret Thatcher, the former British Prime Minister.
Joe Biden’s withdrawal from the U.S. presidential race is not surprising, considering his age and mental and physical decline. However, it is thought-provoking that the Democratic Party is considering a female candidate. Speculation had been circulating four years ago that Joe Biden, with Kamala Harris as his vice president, would hand over the reins to her during the term when he is “requested” to step down for health reasons.
It seems that the moment has arrived. While Biden is only stepping back from running again and is endorsing his vice president, Kamala Harris, as the presidential nominee. This particular solution was orchestrated to ensure that Harris becomes the Democratic challenger to Donald Trump in the battle for the American presidency.
Whether this was a long-standing plan or a sudden decision is not relevant. However, it is a fact that Harris was not cut out for these political heights, as her vice-presidential activities have unfortunately demonstrated. Her background also sends a message to American society, especially if we identify the country’s founders primarily with a European cultural background.
In order to maintain formal and actual stability, voters have always chosen white American Christian men as their president. This mindset had been accepted by voters for generations. However, it changed with Barack Obama’s nomination and election, and was permanently extinguished with Clinton’s nomination, which shattered the consensus-based political concept.
The favoritism towards female candidates may have a simpler explanation behind it. While it’s easy to speculate, the author does not consider himself discriminatory, especially regarding the abilities of women. It is possible that the idea of having a female candidate is based on speculative mathematics, with the assumption that more active voters come from the weaker sex.
In any case, the message of a female candidate requires deciphering beyond political arguments. In normal times, women who organized political demonstrations did so primarily for peace and against violence. The women in question now belong to friendly circles, such as Ursula von der Leyen or the German Foreign Minister, Annalena Baerbock, who enthusiastically advocate for continued bloodshed in Ukraine.
In conclusion, the question remains: why does the shadow power behind the scenes want a woman as America’s president? Former Democratic nominee Robert F. Kennedy Jr. could have carried on the party’s traditions, but he was excluded for his contrasting views on continuing the conflict in Ukraine and for identifying as a man.
Overall, the trend of favoring female candidates raises multiple questions, which are worth examining beyond just the political realm.
