    How is Biden having an interest in Harris winning at all relevant to the powers of the vice president or her actions if she is elected?

    Biden and Harris are two completely different individuals, which is a fact that you guys seem to forget.

      So which is it? Biden is in charge and isn’t changing stance? Or Harris isn’t in charge but also isn’t signaling a departure from Biden if she is elected?

      Either way, neither Biden (who is actually in charge) nor Harris (who isn’t in charge) is changing (Biden) or stating an intention to change (Harris) their handling of Israel.

        Did you read the rather long text at the top of this thread? It explains all this rather well.

          Yes. Fwiw, my first comment here preceded that one.

          Edit: also, that comment addresses something different than what we’re discussing here. The responses here seem to be fixated on Harris being VP rather than president. The comment you are pointing out discusses Biden’s limitations in managing this situation. Different issues, different discussions.
