probably @Atlrocafella

i mean i look at it like this; the race comes down to MI, WI and PA. dems win those states and it's over, and those are their top 3 best chances

so if biden goes down for some reason and his VP has to head the ticket...should his VP pick be the best person to win THOSE 3 states? i'd have to say yes from a strategic standpoint :yeshrug:
Even at a lesser point, can that VP “help with those three in getting him across the line.

Honestly, this is the time for a plain white male VP. Remember, Joe might not make it the full 4 years and people will have to weigh in about his VP choice.

If he wants an overwhelming victory- Michelle Obama. If he wants to get Latino voters- Castro. If he wants to lose- Warren or Sanders.
i cant imagine michelle obama has any interest in running for politics after the way this country treated her husband :yeshrug: people throw this around, but id be shocked if she ever went into politics. they're set for life and enjoying retirement

Tammy Duckworth would be a good choice. She was in the House, then became a Senator. Former assistant secretary of intergovernmental affairs at the VA under Obama. Lieutenant colonel military vet and double legged leg amputee from a grenade attack in Iraq, awarded purple heart which means she would get Veterans support for Biden.

She should be a top 3 choice.
This would be a good ass choice.

I agree. But, I think she may do it if offered. Only because of how he was treated. I remember she was being interviewed a while back and she said the toughest thing she had to do is welcome Trump into the White House when he won. About how difficult it was to let a man who trashed her husband into her home for the past 8 years. It would be pure karma for her to walk his ass out. People keep forgetting Michelle is way different from her husband, she doesn't seem like the type to just go into retirement. She has ambition.

That's an inspired choice; however, I wonder about the ableist nature of this country. Being a vet may not competely erase it either. We've seen the rightwing turn a war hero into a liar (Kerry) while propping up a jackass (Dubya) partying in TX during the same war.

Basically I'd like to see some polling.
