She has some criticisms for her past as an attorney, but I’m not sure why she’s so disliked now. What has she done to engender such distaste from the public?

My question is what has she done (that actually has improved the country) since she's been VP that would make her tasteful to the public?

What roles does a VP have that front and center for policy though? Fundamentally a lot of the roles with in the executive branch are kind of invisible to the general public. Unless your neck deep into politics (and I don't mean the cable news network.. but more along the lines of reading stuff from federal register and CRS reports, and straight up political science research papers.)

unless your that deep into things what the VP does might as well be invisible

This is the real question. I'm sick of people dismissing criticisms against her because she's black and/or a woman. Give me an actual reason to like her!

She's definitely a horrible public speaker. I totally disagree with how she tackled truancy during her time as a DA/AG. Is this just my internalized racism speaking or can I ACTUALLY feel this way?
