In her first major speech as the Democratic nominee for vice president, Kamala Harris is expected to focus more on values than substance, according to NBC News Chief Political Analyst Chuck Todd. Todd, along with NBC News Washington Managing Editor Carol Lee, discussed Harris’ upcoming address on Meet the Press NOW.
With the Democratic National Convention underway, all eyes are on Harris as she prepares to formally accept her nomination for vice president. Todd believes that Harris will use her speech to highlight the values that she and presidential nominee Joe Biden stand for, rather than delving into specific policy proposals.
“It’s going to be more about values, more about trying to make this argument about character in contrast to what they believe is the character flaws of President Trump,” Todd said.
Harris, the first woman of color to be nominated for vice president by a major political party, has already made history with her selection. Now, as she prepares to address the nation, all eyes are on how she will communicate the values and vision that she and Biden hope to bring to the White House.
As the convention continues, Harris’ speech is sure to be a highlight of the event. With the November election just months away, Democrats are looking to Harris to help energize the party’s base and attract undecided voters.
Stay tuned for Harris’ speech and the latest updates from the Democratic National Convention as the party moves closer to Election Day.
