Most voters dont have the attention span to keep tabs on the proceedings of the case to the point that they will be waiting on that to decide to vote for the ticket

Firing and arresting in the short term would suffice

Worst comes to worst she hits the typical rhetoric of letting the judicial branch do its job etc
You skipped a step. She has to deal with the fallout during the vetting and selection process. I’m not talking about November. Purely from a political perspective it’s not great timing for her and it’s a vulnerability of being a mayor.

I can certainly agree that it is not great timing. Only timing that could have been worse was if it happened after she was the pick.

Pretty certain that has happened in here.

I think it’s pretty fair to ask the wisdom of not seeking a statewide or national office after the governors run relative to future political aspirations.
Seems good to put in work against the same factors that cost you to lose your last election.
Until its fixed, places like.

Florida and GA are always going to end up red.

And you just look like an opportunist who just keeps seeking office after office until you win one without a real goal. I think a second loss would have killed her future political aspirations.

I think you are mixing two separate topics. Her work with voter registration and voting right is great. I don’t anyone is arguing against that.

I mean you can’t win if you don’t run. I think if she had run for one the senate seats she would have been very competitive.

Either way it’s all a debate and conjecture. She clearly has a desire to be VP but the path never seemed likely. Only she knows her next move if she isn’t selected by Biden.

I hear you, but I don't think should could have run for office this election and also run her voting rights campaign.

Her and Gillum were the two people who seemed best positioned to take on that work due to being black and losing due to black voter suppression.

Her and her backers clearly have a plan in place that they like. The fact that she's even in the VP discussion, to me, proves it's working.

Good discussion

My only eyebrow raiser is that she’s clearly politically ambitious and she’s been a rising star in the party for a while. Depending on if you believe the media reports she’s campaigning for the VP role harder than they are looking at her.

If the goal was to right the voting wrongs then run for office later than I see the rationale. At the same time whats left? Run for governor again? She’s missed the cycles on senatorial office. Wait for John Lewis to step aside?

And to be fair this is just my $.02, like you said her team probably has a vision that random dude on a message board doesn’t get but it’s intriguing.

Did the legislature pass a law forcing Baker to pick a replacement from the same party as departing Senator?
It hasn't come to that yet because she hasn't been selected, but in all likelihood they would. Picking Warren doesn't automatically cede the seat to a Republican.

@Warren Moon @Atlrocafella

Maybe Biden should pick Kamala's sister, she's married to a black man. Her daughter is also married to a black man.

:mjgrin:.....the blavity blacks:snoop:


I love it when supposed progressives expose themselves. It never fails...

there have been over 100 white vps and presidents. Over 200 white vp and presidential nominees with the unspoken and undeniable requirement of having a white spouse.


We demand for our 2nd one and y’all Nikkas are outraged :mjpls:

you’ll never run anything with that mentality, y’all Nikkas are soft as fukk. :mjlol:


fukking followers of black should be the ones to ”rise above”.


You even do this while knowing In Your heart of hearts:francis: , no legit white candidate will be vp or president in an interracial marriage within the next 40-60 years. :hhh:



Spineless Black men pushing this bullshyt and wonder why no one actually will follow your ideas in real-life.



bc it reeks of cowardness. It fukking reeks, the stench is beyond unsettling. :scust:. that mindset permeates all your other ideas as well.
