I don’t get why Harris and Abrams are even options. Harris couldn’t even sustain a presidential campaign to make it to the primaries. What kind of voter, that Biden doesn’t already have, does she bring to the table? Abrams couldn’t even win a state election. Stop it. They can both GTFO

Abrams’ unconventional campaigning for the position, often in multiple national media appearances each day, has raised eyebrows among top Democrats.

“When I am asked a question, I answer it as directly and honestly as I can,” she told NBC's "Meet the Press" on Sunday. “As a young black girl growing up in Mississippi, I learned that if I didn’t speak up for myself, no one else would.”


I was heavy pushing Abrams, but I’m not sure why she’s acting this way. :francis: It’s like she’s trying to guilt the party into her being the vp.


Clyburn has shared with Biden’s team a list of preferred selections, according to a source familiar with the interactions between Clyburn and the campaign, and reminded them of how the right African American woman could galvanize the party.

Thats not Stacy. :francis:

Bottoms was asked directly last week whether she believed her two years as mayor of Atlanta was sufficient preparation for the Oval Office.


“After navigating a pandemic and the biggest municipal cyberattack in the history of our country, I think I'm qualified to handle just about anything other than home schooling my four kids,” she told NBC’s Craig Melvin. “I've said all along, I want Joe Biden to win in November. And I trust he will make the best choice that will allow him the best opportunity to take over the White House in November.”:ehh:

The social media campaign to pick Abrams is a huge mistake. The Biden campaign needs to stop listening to twitter and look at the facts.

I’m ready for this to be over. :francis:
This is Joe's fault. There is going to be no in-person convention what so ever, so why not just make the pick? We're in a pandemic. I still support Tim Ryan for the record. I think none of the women being considered are a proposed fit.

Clyburn now walking back the whole "black woman" thing. Probably because of Stacey's media blitz. Biden already offered her the slot last year and she said no. This is frontrunning.

Unprecedented shyt for unprecedented times. :yeshrug:

Biden is obviously struggling with his public speaking amongst other things. We’re in the middle of a pandemic and running against an absolutely dreadful incumbent, but he’s still an incumbent. Biden needs someone solid to run with, someone younger, and someone who speaks not just good, but great. Someone to instill some confidence in his ticket amongst all the noise going around.

Sooner rather than later

Warren can't be VP because the Senate elections will be too close. Dems could end up in a 50-50 tie, but Warren as VP means the Republican Governor appoints a Republican Senator which means Republicans hold the majority 51-49. Do we want to take that chance with McConnell? Hell no.

Wow interesting. So if what say is true then that eliminates Kamala as well.

She never really went at Joe in the primaries, been praising him at every turn, she used her email list to have a huge fundraising day for him last week (Biden campaign is well aware of their digital fundraising gaps), and Biden wanted her to be his running mate in 2016 if he ran :yeshrug:

They obviously don't have the best relationship though going back to the Obama admin or when he was a US Senator.

Now when I predict things, they don't happen :hubie: so watch it be someone like Val Demings
