Harris vs Trump: this ain’t gonna be close ~ by Ugorji Okechukwu Ugorji

On Tuesday, November 5, 2024, the world’s longest and most consequential experiment in democracy will face another monumental test.

Will the United States of America elect it’s first female president and commander-in-chief, or will a majority of the people return to the white nationalist DNA of the American experience?

History Beckons

Karmala Harris, the first daughter (Ada) of an immigrant Jamaican father and an immigrant Indian mother, is on the threshold of history.

The trajectory of her remarkable life, much like that of the skinny man with a Kenyan father and a Kansas white mother, seams primed for the manifestation of grace.

God willing (Chukwu kwe) the Americans will elect Harris as their first woman president – with her taking the torch further down the track from Hilary Clinton, who was the first woman presidential nominee of a major political party (also a Democrat).

Whenever I have faced an opportunity to help make the arch of history bend towards freedom and justice, I have always invested in it. So, as I did in 2008 for Barrack Obama, I left Owerri in September to come to the US to help coordinate Get-Out-The-Votes for the Harris-Walz Campaign.

It Ain’t Gonna Be Close

Don’t mind the polls that have kept us thrilled with a horse race. Trump’s mystic attraction to a basic instinct in American history is real. The phenomenal devotion MAGA adherents have towards him is also real.

But this year, he will be beaten like an African drum, as American women of all races and religion (and the men who love them) will say with thunderous reverberations: “Enough is enough. This is our turn,” (Awa l’okan the American version).

Enough of over 250 years of men serving as President of the US continuously without a break. Freedom will prevail. And justice will come to Trump and MAGA.

May the best woman win! This is my hope and I am invested in it.
