“I am a radical,” Vice President Kamala Harris announced during a public event in 2010 at Google.
The acknowledgment aligns with her far-left positions.Harris said she was, in fact, a “radical” during the Google event in response to Republican attacks that she was a “radical” District Attorney in San Francisco.“I read that at the Republican Convention. He [opponent] called me a radical,” Harris said. “So I guess that’s one difference between us.”
“And, yeah, I am radical,” she said. “I do believe that we need to get radical, about what we are doing, and take it seriously.”
