An independent voter and former Bernie Sanders adviser believes that choosing Vice President Kamala Harris as the Democratic Party's presidential nominee in 2024 would make her a scapegoat for the party's failures.
Amidst the ongoing speculation about potential Democratic presidential candidates for 2024, independent voter and former Bernie Sanders adviser Tezlyn Figaro has ignited a new debate by expressing her belief that choosing Vice President Kamala Harris as the party's nominee would be a mistake. Figaro argues that the Democratic Party would be using Harris as a "scapegoat" to deflect blame for its own shortcomings.
This sentiment stems from the recent controversies surrounding a bail fund that Harris supported during the 2020 presidential campaign. The Minnesota Freedom Fund, which was promoted by Harris on Twitter, has come under fire for allegedly helping to free violent criminals.

In particular, the fund's role in the release of George Howard has drawn significant attention. Howard, who had been charged with domestic assault, was bailed out by the fund in August 2022. Just weeks later, he allegedly shot and killed another driver in a road rage incident.
This incident has raised concerns about the fund's vetting process and the potential risks associated with releasing individuals charged with serious crimes. The Minnesota Freedom Fund itself has acknowledged the tragic incident and stated that it is reviewing its policies.

Figaro's skepticism over Harris's candidacy is further fueled by the fact that Harris has previously expressed support for policies such as defunding the police. These positions, Figaro believes, are out of touch with the concerns of moderate and independent voters.
She argues that the Democratic Party needs to move away from the perceived extremes of its progressive wing if it wants to be successful in the next presidential election. Choosing Harris as the nominee, she says, would send the wrong message to voters who are seeking more centrist candidates.

Figaro's comments have sparked a lively debate within the Democratic Party. Some analysts agree with her assessment that Harris is a polarizing figure who could alienate key voter blocs. Others, however, believe that Harris's experience and qualifications make her a strong contender for the nomination.
Ultimately, the decision of whether or not to nominate Harris will rest with the Democratic National Committee. However, Figaro's criticisms have certainly added a new layer of intrigue to the race for the 2024 Democratic presidential nomination.
