A look at the highs and lows of Sen. Kamala Harris' bid for the White House.

A month later she would tangle with former Vice President Joe Biden over busing and race at the June presidential debate. “I felt like it was politicizing," Jones, an African American, added."And so at that point, that took the smart person who I thought she was and took it down a couple of notches.”
