Harris Opens Ariz. Remarks Talking About the ‘Duality of Democracy’
EXCERPT:
HARRIS: “So, we are all here together because we love our country. We love our country. And I was talking with some folks recently about the importance of understanding the — the duality, frankly, that exists in terms of our democracy. You know, as your vice president, I’ve now met over 150 world leaders, presidents, prime ministers, chancellors and kings. And when we, representing the United States, walk in those rooms, traditionally we’ve been able to walk in those rooms chin up, shoulders back, with the earned and self-appointed authority to talk about the importance of democracies, rule of law. But I say to a room of role models, here’s the thing about being a role model. When you’re a role model, folks watch what you do to see if it matches up to what you say.”
