C. Mike so this is a very Different Campaign event in the time of the pandemic behind porton was it that carla harris made a good 1st impression of this to vent. It was very important come of the harris has established a reputation within congress as a very fiery and fierce interrogator people come before Senate Committees but this was an opportunity for her to present herself to the majority of the American People shes known as a strong politician but now shes a candidate for the vice presidency and certainly this was an opportunity for her to have her say alongside the man that she will be running with coming to them but so it was a critical 1st move in the campaign the campaign has started rather slowly for joe biden but certainly with that event today it is a good beginning to gain traction and certainly began to explode into life and mike there was a common name wasnt there between both of them during the nomination process is this something they have now over common what is coming or horace bring to the ticket and to voters in the run up to the election.

If they are the democrats really want to make the historical moot then they would have selected her the president ial nominee i think its quite interesting that they didnt feel that she was not good enough to be the president but they are now putting her in the Vice President role thought you know when in time you have to demand in pretty much blackmail a candidate into the poor people of color and i think thats the Bigger Picture and thats Something Else that we need to look at i dont think its something thats rewarding i dont think that she really present a big challenge at the release of the Republican Party in the reason why i say that because she comes with a lot of baggage as a release through her has history and prosecutor and things of that nature so but if i had to point thing all in one thing i think she can definitely go out and i and Africanamerican Community but that is a lot that we have not necessarily have utilized wind in filmy different ways so i think overall she is definitely going to obviously bring in more africanamericans who may have been on the fence but i dont think its going to be enough to win the presidency.

Lebanons president has put out a new estimate of damage and losses from last weeks beirut explosion more than 15000000000. 00 its a bill lebanon will be unable to pay in its current financial crisis the World Health Organization<\/a> meanwhile says hoff the citys Health Clinics<\/a> and hospitals sanctioning. Has been speaking to people whove lost their homes and businesses. Rich or poor the beirut explosion didnt discriminate 10 people died in the luxury Seaview Apartments<\/a> that overlook the port and alice assads house. She and her 2 children had left home half an hour before the blast they raced back to find this. Alice pays a rent fixed in the 1960 s. The common practice here if a landlord cant afford the repairs or release the funds home will probably stay like this i now must learn to most important thing is for the kids to have a place to sleep comfortably with food we will not starve but we need our home back. Businesses too must find the money to rebuild if they think its worth it. This country was already enjoying an economic crisis after a shortage of foreign currency last year sent its currency into freefall i dont know if you will be able to put more money into it i dont know we need. Not only also. Everybody. Needs. 70000 homes and a so far uncalculated number of businesses were destroyed or damaged when 2750 tons of Ammonium Nitrate<\/a> exploded at beirut port last tuesday. A dozen schools also need rebuilding this is the citys oldest the school of the 3 doctors in the challenge is huge an explosion of the scale is exceptional before rebuilding you have to appraise the structure see if everything cannot. Holed up sometimes you have to consolidate sometimes you have to destroy to rebuild so it will take real building expertise. Every homeowner every business every Institution Needs<\/a> glass and Building Materials<\/a> and nearly all of that is imported. So they need dollars. But their money is locked in inaccessible Bank Accounts<\/a> for many here its effectively stolen by political elite thats been running the country for decades.
