Official Kamala Harris VP Thread

It feels like they want to make this a much more chaotic process than it needs to be. Just follow party line and say she's a good candidate and MOVE ON.

Everyone has said that except Obama

Only who he approves will be the Vp so it willl probably be a dud like Pete or insane liberal like Newsom

Warren is such a good politician, and I'm tired of Democrats making her out to be a nobody because of "Pocahontas" and "being a Snake" against Bernie.
She basically is what Bernie should've been like in actually getting things done and working across Part
y lines to help Americans.

Warren would have been great

Warren was the front runner including with black voters in 2020 before Bidens campaign leaked Pocahontas gate. Trump was barely focusing on Biden because once again like in all his primaries , he was small potatoes and Warren was the lead.

Biden, the author of three strikes , was in trouble that year so he made a back room deal with Rep Clyburn to endorse him in exchange for a black Vp and sec of defense . If any of us committed bribery or dealing this way, we would be fired .

Obama always hated Warren for daring to speak out and criticize him . The first thing he did when he got in office was make sure Jesse Jackson Jr went to jail. The Jacksons and Bill Clinton were right about Obama. No doubt he hates AOC and Bernie too. He’s long hated Biden too.

As long as Axelrod and Obama run the DNC, they are in trouble . Obama caused this problem by not allowing Joe Biden to run in 2015/2016 when he wanted to primary Hillary. Obama kept telling him it’s Hillary’s turn. It wasn’t Hillary’s turn when he ran though, now was it?

Don’t forget Hilary’s back room behind-closed-doors meltdown on election night —as reported by the New York Times when she reportedly seethed to her staffers as they broke the news of defeat to her— “I knew it. I knew this was going to happen to me! They were NEVER going to let me be president!”
The Clintons haven’t been pulling the strings for a while now.
And they’d like to be on that driver’s seat again. Perhaps they see an opportunity to gain that back by immediately publicly endorsing Kamala (before Obama has a chance to handpick the person he’d rather have) and if they promise to throw support behind her to get her elected, she’d be beholden to them.

Youve watched too many seasons of Scandal, but it’d be kind of fun to imagine there is this kind of power brokering going on.

That’s exactly what it is. The Obama and Clinton rivalry continues. Clintons wanted Biden to stay . Obama and Pelosi wanted Biden to go. Biden eventually leaves but not without resentment toward Obama

A two woman ticket makes me very nervous (unfortunately), but I do hope Whitmer is out there as an extremely vocal surrogate trying to drive the vote for Kamala in Michigan.

The Dem women are more popular than the men . At least Warren, AOC, and Whitmer are highly popular with Dems .


A two women ticket is bold and revolutionary and can excite younger voters with the history making prospect of it

It's not good enough just to be popular with Democrats. The ticket needs to be popular with independents. With never Trumpers, to steal votes from Trump and to get people who were planning on staying home or voting 3rd party

It takes incedible selfishness/narcissism to believe you are the person to run the executive. The appeal to these families to get back into one of the most stressful positions possible is beyond me. One thing I respect about the Trumps (which is so so so so race) is solely that Melania really seems to hate the White House and barely supports her husband's crawl towards it. It's the most human part of that crazy family.

Well this was a wild ride to read.

1 - Michelle Obama grew up very close friends with the Jackson family.

2 - Axelrod does not run the DNC. That’s actually a hilarious assertion.

Saying this as a Never Trumper: this is a dangerous stance to take.

If the argument against Trump is that he’s a threat to democracy, telling people to shut up and accept the candidate they’re given without primaries or an open convention after the presumptive nominee drops out, it very effectively weakens the Dems as the champions of democracy in this race.

“Just shut up and accept the candidate you’re given.” Or we could have an actual convention and some attempt at a democratic process to select a ticket.

It's going to be a white guy. Can't be Newsome because he's from California, too. Likely Beshear, Pritzker, Shapiro, or Buttigieg.

Maybe Whitmer, but that might be too much estrogen for the electorate to handle.

I'd like to see it be Duckworth, but that's probably too much melanin for the electorate to handle.

Well, I'm not trusting Democrats to ever save Democracy, their strategy is 9 times out of 10 made to screw over a ton of voting blocks, because Obama and the Clintons need their 5 minutes of post-presidential fame every election. It's not that I need everyone to 100% agree with Kamala Harris, but moderates are very vulnerable to "bad optics" and will spend the next months discussing how disorganized the DNC is, then they'll start picking up Donald's claims that this was undemocratic and yada yada. I'd rather the adults in the room, go "You know, she is the most visible and has a chance and an endorsement from the current President of the United States. Run her." Which they are very slowly getting to.

It’s not going to be Newsom because they can’t both be from California.

I don't know if I can hold the tears back if they try bringing JB Pritzker in, what a shit show choice.

Democrats don't run women, not because the other Democrats won't vote for women and they're very unpopular (HRC is the frumpiest most annoying white woman you can bring up and she got the popular vote), but because those people don't think women are worthy to be president. That's it.

HRC and Kamala aren’t the best candidates . They laugh foolishly when discussing serious issues like war and mayhem. America likes women that aren’t weird cacklers and say stupid things like “Why am I not 50 points ahead ????”

I've never thought the Democratic party has run very intelligent people. Obama was a smooth talker, but we can see how they turned out. Bill Clinton is an idiot. Biden is an idiot and for a while was just making the same bland "unity" statements while appeasing really no one at all-he reminds me of Jeb Bush. I don't think you need to be the best candidate at all to win the race. I do think people should be more honest and just say the thing: "I don't think women should be president"

??

Bill Clinton is widely considered one of the most intelligent US presidents in history. Clearly he made some not-so-bright decisions in his personal life, but the man was no dummy.
