      Tulsi was the youngest person ever elected to the Hawaii legislature, the youngest woman ever elected to *any* state legislature, the first Hindu and first American Samoan ever elected to Congress. But no "history-making potential," according to the NYThttps://twitter.com/mtracey/status/1087876406829350917 …

      Notice how the NYT describes Kamala as having "history-making potential" but omits this label for Tulsi, even though she's a minority woman. NYT instead chooses to label Tulsi an anti-gay Assad lover. This is how establishment consensus tries to preemptively disqualify candidates pic.twitter.com/Ph3a8dquAY

      Also, can someone explain in what sense Kamala Harris has "star power," other than the fact that NYT, CNN, etc. have decreed she has "star power"? What does that even mean?

          Without a doubt, the DNC has already had their smoke-filled backroom clandestine meeting and has found a chosen one.

          The @NYTimes is cherry picking from these candidates' records. So for @SenKamalaHarris, it overlooks her failing to prosecute @StevenMnuchin1 for some of the most egregious mortgage fraud in California. It overlooks @TulsiGabbard's 100 rating in Congress on LGBTQ issues by @HRC.

          No, no one can explain this. If Leonard Nimoy were around he could do an "Unsolved Mysteries" episode on it.

          It’s narrative creating. It’s setting up the narrative speak that if she wins CA it means she’s a shoe in for winning. In reality it’s people pretending to be objective while relaying Donor preferences. then building the evidence afterwards. In a attempt to sell to the public.

          It's reasonable to say that AOC is an example of someone that currently has "star power"...but how does Harris mirror that in any way?

          Broadly agree w/your thread but i think “star power” just means she became a familiar & charismatic face during Kavanaugh hearings.
