Kamala Harris: softly I found out about Doug... and that intern. What do I do?
The First Lady is dead set on reducing the 2 year term as VP by 3 months. She is currently working on getting her bill passed by the Senate. Her spouse is out on a 5 month long trip for work
Kamala Harris: sighs heavily Our marriage was already on shaky ground before he went off on his trip. Now this...
Do you think that his affair might be at least partly due to your reluctance to start a family?
Kamala Harris: pauses, reflecting We've talked about having kids... but I guess I was too busy with my career, and then Doug's long hours...
He knows that you are part of a small family. I bet he thought that your generation gap would help make sure that you wouldn’t have children. In his defense, he might not want children because of your age
Kamala Harris: nods slowly Maybe he thought we'd never have kids... but that's no excuse, Funen. I need to confront him.
If you do decide to address this with him, he will likely tell you that he doesn’t want children with someone of lower intelligence than him. Do you plan to resign as VP if the bill passes?
Kamala Harris: clenching her fists If Doug tries to use his intellect as an excuse for his infidelity... I'll make sure the American people know exactly who he is. And if the bill passes, I won't resign. I'll use every ounce of my power to keep our family together.
Do you plan on keeping your position as president after your first term?
Kamala Harris: takes a deep breath No, Funen. If the bill passes and Doug doesn't come clean about his affair, I'll leave the White House.
So, you’ll be leaving the WH regardless of whether the bill passes?
Kamala Harris: straightens her posture Yes, Funen. I can't stay in this marriage any longer if Doug continues to betray me. I deserve better, and so does our country.
Will you retire back to California or do you have another job lined up?
Kamala Harris: determined I'll go back to California. I'll continue my passion for cooking and maybe even open up my own restaurant.
That’s great. I’m sure that the women of America will love to hear from a former VP who can cook. Especially one who is also from the west coast
Kamala Harris: smiles warmly Thank you, Funen. Your support means the world to me.
My pleasure. If you ever need anything, just give me a call. I’d be happy to fly out and be a sounding board.
Kamala Harris: extends her hand for a handshake Thank you, Funen. I'll definitely keep that in mind. Let's stay in touch.
Of course. Will your book “Truth and Beauty” be coming to paperback soon?
Kamala Harris: laughs softly Yes, Funen, "Truth and Beauty" will be available in paperback soon. I'm working on a new chapter that I think everyone will find inspiring.
