Harris has the skillsto win White House

Re: “Biden bows out” (Page A1, July 22).

I was worried about Joe Biden stepping aside. But now it seems to be going well. Kamala Harris certainly has the experience to put Donald Trump where he belongs — never to step into the White House again.

Trump has taken away women’s rights. He got the Supreme Court to give him almost full immunity, which includes not being subject to the rule of law.

We should all be aware of Trump’s Agenda 47 and his Project 2025. If those things come to pass, we will descend even further into an autocracy, which is all he wants: nothing for the American people, all for him.

If we listen to Kamala Harris, then we can God bless America again.

Trump, Vance rantsshould be known to all

Re: “Mallard Fillmore” (Page B9, July 24).

Bruce Tinsley is whitewashing Donald Trump again.

The East Bay Times should create a running list of Trump’s pronouncements and fantasies. Publish this list in every edition. Add JD Vance’s choicest eruptions.

Go back in time to Trump’s demeaning statements as to how he regards women. Add the diatribes, the unrelenting conviction that the 2020 election was fraudulent, the crackpot economic pronouncements, the war-ending, wand-waving dreams. Refute Tinsley with the recorded evidence.

Trump and Vance are menaces whose words should be displayed in bold print. Americans need to be reminded daily that these are men who make vacuous promises as to how they will create an economic nirvana.

More insidiously, they promise us that they will institute laws forcing us to conform to their twisted beliefs, that their religious convictions should govern us.

U.S. must honorvaccination promise

No child should lose their life contracting a disease which could have been prevented by simply receiving a vaccine immunization. Disappointedly, more than 14 million children received no vaccine at all last year.

GAVI, The Vaccine Alliance was established in 2000 to save lives, decrease poverty, and protect the world against the threat of epidemics and pandemics by increasing the equitable and sustainable use of vaccines.

The success of GAVI has proven substantial. Prior to 2000 approximately 10 million children died each year prior to their fifth birthday. Since 2000, GAVI has helped vaccinate more than 1 billion children in 78 lower-income countries preventing more than a projected 17.3 million future deaths.

On June 20 in Paris, first lady Dr. Jill Biden announced a U.S. pledge of at least $1.58 billion to GAVI over five years. Our representatives and senators must now sign the resolutions supporting GAVI, H. Res. 1286 and S. Res. 684.

The decision of President Joe Biden to withdraw from the presidential election is appropriate. In the meantime, I, as an American citizen, wish to urge him to take the necessary steps to end the humanitarian catastrophe in Gaza.

The president should convene a meeting of the United Nations Security Council to adopt a resolution under Chapter VII of the Charter to impose an immediate cease-fire in the Israeli war against Gaza, and ensure the withdrawal of Israeli forces from Gaza and replace them with United Nations peacekeepers.

He should also convene the United Nations Middle East conference to bring final peace arrangements between the Arab states including Palestine and Israel.
