Who I Would Vote For If I Were American: Or At Least 2 Reasons to Vote for Kamala Harris
Of course, these aren't the main reasons why I would vote for Kamala Harris if I were an American. It's not just about her policies — I just find Trump annoying. I don't like the way he behaves or what he says, and honestly, if there were another candidate instead of Harris, I would probably support them. And what I mention next — just take it as a joke.
Age matters
One of the main reasons I would vote for Harris is her age. She is not an 80-year-old, which means she has more energy and mental clarity. At 80, no matter how smart you are, your brain starts to slow down and your health becomes more fragile. The older you get, the higher your risk of sudden death, and if I were an American, I would not want to go back to the polls in just a few years. It is not just a matter of practicality, but also of national security. Someone who has lived most of their life is no longer afraid of the same things as someone who is younger. When you have nothing to lose, you can make risky and reckless decisions. I would not want the nation to become hostage to this “I have nothing to lose” mentality.
Women's leadership is more than just a symbol
But the bigger reason for me is that Kamala Harris is a woman. And it’s not because America needs its first female president for the sake of symbolism. No, it’s much deeper than that. I grew up with a single mother, so for me, it’s personal. My father left, and I know what it’s like to need support and not have it. Often, fathers leave, and mothers stay and carry the burden. That’s the reality for many people. And the American people, as I see it, are like a child who needs a caring mother.
Kamala Harris is more than just a candidate. She represents the caring and responsibility that many lack.
Trump and Biden are like choosing between two types of meat when you are essentially a “vegetarian.” They both represent an old way of doing things, an old political approach that I don’t like. Harris, on the other hand, is a chance for something new. She offers a perspective on change that comes not from fear or aggression, but from a desire for justice and equality.
