Potential VP nominee questions
I keep hearing Kamala Harris, Stacey Abrams and Val Demings - great options all the way around. And, maybe Klobuchar or Warren as well.

But, that left me wondering - do we have a similar lineup of impressive women of Latin American descent? Rep. Sylvia Garcia was an impeachment manager. But, even she is not nearly as high profile as Harris, Abrams and even Demings.

nah... gotta be a LBGTQI? WOC.

2. I'm interested in finding out more

about the top Latin American women we have that are governors, lt governors and in Congress. They don't seem to get as much publicity as African American women.

I like diversity in the party and I see a lot of high profile African Americans, but not as many of HIspanic descent outside of AOC. Castro could barely get 1% in the primaries.

4. I agree that a woman candidate for VP provides a pleasant and effective balance. But that's not

sexism, it's just political common sense!

5. Warren if nominee is JB, Klobuchar if it's BS - Im looking for demonstrated ability to mend rifts between the party and work together. What better way than the choose a V from other end of the spectrum and craft a brilliant and unified platform There is no need for P and VP to be matchy-matchy in their politics - in fact now is the time to think outside the box and commit to whatever it takes to present a strong, unified stance.

I just picked Warren and Klobuchar for illustration purposes - theres any no. of other qualified folks Im sure - need to read up on Abrams and Demings so cant comment on that in any kind of informed way.

6. I think Beto would be an inspired VP pick

12. Having a woman of color for VP would possibly help drive some enthusiasm for Biden

I know that some progressives detest Harris for many of the same reasons they hated Klobuchar (i.e. "she's a cop" ) but she would be a solid choice for Biden and she would be a tough campaigner against Trump. And her seat would be easily replaceable since she in California. One of the things I was worried about with Warren is that her Senate seat would have been filled by a Republican if she won the Presidency.

13. Warren for Senate Majority Leader

is my choice - her and Pelosi would get good shit done.

17. Why not Hillary?

She would be absolutely fantastic if Biden gets the nomination. They are also pretty similar on views, and get along. We owe it to her for what has happened to this poor woman. 2016 still bothers me.

Joe Biden would never finish out his term, not just because he's an idiot but because the Deep State would mandate (and insure) his removal. What the Deep State is looking for is an open-nomination un-electable individual who they would put in place as the VP running mate to serve a few days under 10 years as president upon Joe's "resignation" shortly after his 2-year mark passes.

Joe Biden will have absolutely no say into his vice presidential running mate. That person will most likely be in her fifties, maybe forties or even late thirties, most probably of color, and definitely a Deep State socialist. (Note I didn't say "him or her.") This person will HAVE to energize the Bernie base (crucial), and be able to work hand-in-hand with the RINO-progressive Deep State aparatus to destroy the United States so at the end of her pragmatic 10-year rule, the Constitution will be completely obliterated.

There is ***no way*** that Joe Biden would be the actual head of the Democrat Party. The titular head will be, and MUST be, the VP.
