intention is to earn and win this nomination. Vice President
Harris raised close to sixty million dollars from donors and
grassroots supporters hours after her campaign launch, According to fundraising
platform Act Blue. Vice President Harris has secured the backing

telling me about the phone call with the black women
that was had on Sunday night and just energized.
Speaker 1 (01:26):
I think the country is energized right now. We're excited.
Speaker 2 (01:30):
Yeah, and you see that donors, celebrities, everyone is energized
by VP Harris as the Democratic Party nominee for president.
Speaker 1 (01:43):
Come on, how does that sound sound? Sound right?
Speaker 2 (01:49):
Yeah?
Speaker 1 (01:49):
And she's still gotta win the nomination at the Democratic
Convention going down in August. But she's had so much support.
I think she's done what but I didn't think could
be done, and that's bring the Democrats together for once.
Yah know, I feel party unity right now. You know
with her three days ago, we looked like a shipwreck,
(02:11):
you know what I'm saying. It just looked bad. Yeah,
we absolutely did. Democratic Representative Jim Clyborne of South Carolina
also endorsed VP Harris for president. Referring to Biden, he said,
I echo the good judgment he demonstrated in selecting VP
Harris to lead this nation alongside him, and I am
proud to follow his lead in support of her candidacy
(02:34):
to succeed him as a Democratic Party's twenty twenty four
nominee for president, Congresswoman Alexandria Ocassia Cortes pledge her full
support to Vice President Kamala Harris, and she posted this
statement on social media. She said, now, more than ever,
it is crucial that our party and country swiftly unite
to defeat Donald Trump and the threat to American democracy.
(02:57):
End quote. There we go. You know what I want
to see? Now? What now? I want to see a debate.
That's what I want between Yeah, oh, between the prosecutor.
Speaker 2 (03:06):
Because who assure Yeah, I can sure you you not
ready to debate this, sister.
Speaker 1 (03:12):
I can show you you not ready. She's built for this, baby,
she is built for this. Yes, yes, yes. So now
we got to get to the polls. We got to vote.
We got to find out what our registration status is.
All of that. Uh, you know, if you've changed, if
you've moved, you got to update your address so you
can find you a new polling place. It's still a
(03:34):
lot of work to be done in a very short
period of time, but we can do it, though.
Speaker 2 (03:38):
We can do it, especially if you're a first time voter.
You know, Tommy, you talked about this earlier in the
interview with Roland Martin talking about energizing the youth and
getting out to the polls.
Speaker 1 (03:50):
And it was funny. I was having a conversation with.
Speaker 2 (03:52):
A young person who is old enough to vote, and
you know what he said. He said, well, you know,
we don't vote because you know before we didn't like
either candidate.
Speaker 1 (04:01):
And I was like, that's some reason not to vote.
Do you know what we have been dealing for your vote? Yes,
they're live, y'all, just getting to the party. We've been here.
This is what we do. We vote, right, So it's
our job to school them.
Speaker 2 (04:18):
It's our job to teach them, just like you know
Rolland was saying, and like it said yesterday on air,
you know, so we got work to do, y'all in
a short amount of time.
Speaker 1 (04:28):
We got a lot of work to do. Way to
go in a small way to get there, short way
to get there. That's what my faster used to say
all the time, well before he started sermon. Okay, let's
get it. I got a long way to go in
a short period of time. Let's go. But it looks
a little brighter. I'm feeling a lot brighter right now. Yeah.
