2020 VP Discussion

 I spent an hour this AM....studying 2020, and the final five on the VP list for Joe Biden to pick from.  The list?

Kamala Harris (Senator from California): Selected as the nominee; her prosecutorial background and appeal to diverse voters.

Susan Rice (former National Security Advisor): Praised for foreign policy expertise but faced scrutiny over past controversies like the Benghazi response.

Elizabeth Warren (Senator from Massachusetts): Valued for progressive policy chops but criticized for primary-season clashes with Biden.

Gretchen Whitmer (Governor of Michigan): Seen as a battleground-state boost with strong executive experience amid the COVID-19 crisis.

Stacey Abrams (former Georgia House Minority Leader): Highlighted for voter mobilization efforts, especially among Black voters in the South.

In the end...Joe selected Kamala...at least that's the story.

I'm of the mind that Jill Biden reviewed the list, and helped to select Kamala....thinking she was less likely to challenge Joe if the dementia-thing came up as a serious topic.
