Honestly west….who the phuque votes for the VP? The Prez ought to pick his VP for whatever reasons he feels necessary. Have you ever voted for a POTUS because of who his running mate was? In my 14 general elections, I cant remember who the VP was half the time for the guy I voted for…..
Normally I agree with this. But Biden is in his 80s. The vp pick has more meaning. That said Harris gets a bad rap because conservatives have attacked her hard-core because of Bidens age. No vp does much and neither has she but they nitpick everything and it's worked because they've convinced a lot of people she is worthless which is ridiculous because no one knows what she's done or how she would handle the job. One thing I know though is she would be a million times better than trump and that's all I need to know about Bidens vp
So I was supposed to “feel good” when Mike Pence and Dan Quayle and Dick Cheney were sitting in the wings?
She’s also a woman of color who has been portrayed as licentious, fair or not fair, and all rhetoric surrounding her is right out of the front page of every racist’s playbook. That doesn’t mean every criticism of her is racist, or that everyone critiquing her is a bigot, but it does mean that a lot of the anti-Kamala noise should be taken with a large grain of salt. After all, we’re not that far removed from the days when a POTUS’s wife was referred to as an “ape in heels.”
I do hate the fact any criticism of hers gets categorized as either because she's a female or because she's black. When she was elected, I celebrated the milestone achievement. As a father of two daughters I quickly recognized the significance of her election and the message that it sent to my girls--you can do anything! For what it's worth, I thought McCain's VP choice was terrible too and it had nothing to do with the fact Palin was a female.
Previous VP's have done plenty - Pence led a lot of things specifically COVID response, Biden, well he was in charge of Ukraine and was supposed to be Obama's foreign relations guy, Cheney did a lot of post 9-11 stuff. Harris has done nothing. Where Biden has says she's in charge, she's done nothing. She has demonstrated (and if you think it's nitpicking, fine) that she cannot verbally communicate anything that isn't a rambling, repetitive mess. Biden has not been any times better than Trump, I highly doubt she could exceed Joe
Oh gee Titan...I forgot how great those GOP VPs have been.
Not a fan of any of the VP's you mentioned but having said that what would have happened if Gore had picked Sen. Graham of Florida in 2000 instead of Lieberman?
My dad was healthy as a horse at age 63....he died of cancer at age 65....your point? Again...who the hell votes for a ticket based on who the CP nominee is? Other than the nominee’s family...
Do you think the people of Texas in 1960 wanted a Yankee Catholic as President?
