Michelle Obama? Biden is elderly so we need an experienced person as VP who can step in and actually run the country. Just because you were married to a POTUS does not make you a candidate to be vice POTUS. I would take any mentioned in the poll before Obama.
Yeah, this fascination with Michelle Obama is ridiculous. She did absolutely ZERO while she was in the WH and, in fact, hated it so much she was taking 3 week vacations every 2 weeks (at taxpayers expense, of course). The woman literally cried for hours after finally leaving the WH for good.
Except that would be a lie. Trump has lots of business experience prior to becoming president.
An undergraduate degree from Princeton and a law degree from Harvard and executive director of a non profit and roles in city government and a dean for University of Chicago and a VP for Univ of Chicago hospitals. And yes, first lady.
Democrats had 29 candidates in the presidential primary...how wide of a look do you need?
I can't believe that black host let him get away with that too. Had that been a Republican you know dang well he would have went ballistic right then and there.
I'm pretty sure I have read on these forums Trump supporters saying they would be fine with our next presidents after Donald being Ivanka, Don Jr, Eric, and Barron.
It's different though.....Mile High said:
I didn't say anything about liking the decision. But in the world's largest popularity contest turnout is going to be everything and it's what failed the party last election.
I like her, have since the impeachment hearings. She has law enforcement experience, supports ethics and enforcement, and she just to me has a lot of character. My only issue is she does not have much experience, she's just been a Rep since 2017. She was great in the impeachment hearings and I think she's very effective. She obviously checks electoral identity and favorite daughter boxes and personally I think besides the midwest in general getting urban turnout in big cities in the midwest and Florida is key.
But in what order? Does the Godfather get to choose his own succession? Which one leaves the gun and takes the connoli?Mile High said:
I think its a bit early to see how that affects her chances at this...its not as if she has responsibility over the police force. How she reacts to it would go a long way.
What's the problem here?
And they will get even more desperate as Trump's poll numbers continue to go south in the coming months.
I assume he is referring to things like this:
I get the criticism there and with failing to ever prosecute one of the current guys in trouble will hurt. However, I also don't fault people for pushing it off to a Grand Jury...piss off the police union or other things and your political career can die quickly.
Indeed, despite the claim that a grand jury will indict a ham sandwich, it is a way for a prosecutor to avoid responsibility for not bringing an indictment against a police officer and having to deal with the subsequent blow back.

It might help a tiny bit but to be honest I'm not sure Warren shores up anyone who wouldn't have voted for Biden otherwise. Things got pretty nasty with Warren and Bernie Bros down the stretch and she backed off a lot of her positions the far left liked when she first started.
I've felt that from the beginning - disclaimer I supported her in the primaries until she dropped out and started the official Kamala Harris Thread!
True, but I don't think actual Bernie bros are ever going to vote for anyone other than Bernie.
I don't think this would be a great idea from an electoral perspective, neither of them are great campaigners and it would be a very low charisma ticket. Policy wise she is probably the best option they would ever consider.
Thats probably true for some. I would have given a few of them a chance... I liked Tulsi anyway, probably would have voted for Yang and Pete too. Even though Warren's flip flops and turning her back on the left frustrated me to no end I would have pulled the lever for her too on the chance she found her lefty footing again. Biden specifically is just a really tough sell for me with his track record.
Not trying to sell you on Biden, but in my mind the most optimistic scenario of Biden winning would be something like Virginia, where even though Northam and others are pretty conservative, they have still been passing some legislation that seems more progressive than they are as a whole.
