The weird thing is, like if you view old videos of Harris talking, like the coconut tree video - she can be a very genuine and relatable speaker. But we rarely saw that person on the campaign trail and I have no idea why. We saw a little bit of that in the debate, but that's about it.

Did you not see the videos of her responding to women crying about how happy they were to see her as the candidate? Also she was a high level prosecutor and successful politician, she can speak to a crowd just fine. I think she probably was told to be less herself in that respect so as to not come off as an angry black woman.

I didn't see those videos but I believe it - there was a good one where she was talking to younger girls about public speaking, where she was very good. I think you're right.
