Love Kamala, would like to see her as AG maybe, but VP too, more than anything, I want them to win in November, everything else will figure itself out.

That's why I lowkey feel Michelle Obama would be his best choice. :yeshrug:Black people will show up in drovers for Michelle more so than any other female political figure. Young people love her too. She's popular enough to get a decent amount of suburban white women on board as well.
Odds on that are unpossible

Michelle would certainly turn the race on its head in terms of firing up the base+black people...but is she qualified to be president? Nah, plus I doubt she'd even accept. Biden needs to pick someone who is ready to help govern. I'd imagine he's looking for a relationship similar to the way Obama treated him: giving the VP full access and also allowing him to run certain initiatives.

From a pure competency perspective sure Warren is a great choice...but politically? Nah. Harris is kind of the opposite. Whitmer kinda reminds me of a college basketball team that gets hot and becomes the team of the moment...but who knows when that's gonna crash. I dunno fellas....I don't see an easy choice. I wish Biden hadn't kneecapped himself by saying it will be a woman...

Whitmer is just beginning, not a good choice to abandon a state that just elected you. I want Tim Ryan or Beto. I think bidien should walk this pledge back imo. No great options.
You want Beto? The “Hell yeah we’re gonna take your guns” guy? You want to lose, my guy?

I agree that she's not qualified, but the number one priority is dethroning Trump. You can't govern if you can't beat Trump. Biden is a very weak candidate, he needs a superstar VP to help turnout the Dem base, a group of voters who are not the most reliable. No black person in America is sitting home on November 3rd and letting our Michelle lose to Donald Trump. Michelle could counter her lack of experience by saying she has the moral character, intelligence and temperament to assume the office of presidency if the time called for it. She's a Princeton and Harvard Law grad so she's no dummy.

Biden's not great but he single handedly defeated the whole dem lineup without even trying. I think he's been underestimated the entire time for whatever reason


All that matters is getting Trump out of office and rebuilding.

Her lack of experience is a complete non factor with her husband within arms reach

He needed the entire field dropping out and the establishment coalescing around him to save him breh.
