In a clip of a CNN interview scheduled to air in full Thursday night, Harris said she was committed to welcoming diverse points of view.

“I have spent my career inviting diversity of opinion. I think it’s important to have people at the table when some of the most important decisions are being made that have different views, different experiences,” Harris said. “And I think it would be to the benefit of the American public to have a member of my Cabinet who was a Republican.”

    Franklin Roosevelt appointed a Republican as secretary of navy. Granted, back then the Democrat/Republican divide wasn’t as polarised as today. But if Harris could appoint a moderate Republican and willing to work with Democrats, then that just might work and soothe the current political polarisation.
