So the obvious slogan for Kamala Harris's run for presidency is obviously going to be what she has stated hundreds of times. https://youtu.be/X075waqdTqg?si=w9EAMC8nRuSNjURr

"What can be, unburdened by what has been"

It's almost the same as make America great again, but it seems to almost say

"What can be" obviously refers to some utopian view of the future

"Unburdened by what is been" is obviously a statement that everything prior to thay utopian future is shit. 

Another way to word her preside tial campaign slogan is 

Make America great because it is currently and always has been a pile of dog shit. 

Is there another way to interpret this phrase? 

Is she right?

Is this a slogan you can get behind when you walk into a voting booth.

That is one hell of a projection, Trump's entire message is this country and everything about it sucks when I'm not President.

No trying to figure out what "Unburdened by what is been" might mean, it's right there front and center of his campaign, the country was dogshit before Trump, it is dogshit after Trump, and will stay dog shit until Trump is President again.

And the suckers and losers following him are dumb enough to believe in that horseshit.

It strikes me as another version of “Today is a brand new day.” I think it contradicts her promotion of equity, though, which is a concept very much “burdened by what has been.”

By the way the phrase make America great again obviously presupposes that America was great at some point

It also says America is not great now, I disagree, I think America is great and Trump sucks.

If you think this country sucks you should try living in a country you think doesn't suck.

I know, I am opposed to them. They lock up political opponents, attack free speech on social media etc. 

If you think this country sucks you should try living in a country you think doesn't suck.
This one sucks the least though.
