I know it’s a cliche but Val just might be the one who could bring all sides together (in certain respects anyway) to some extent as VP and in case she would need to step in for Biden. This moment would not be too big for her.
She could be a risky VP pick for Biden, especially in Florida. Fair or not, she’s being viewed as responsible for atrocities that occurred with the Orlando police while she was chief. With the recent race issues and BLM, she could potentially have a negative effect on Biden’s chances in battleground states. I’m thinking Karen Bass now.
Val's problem is that most people can't picture her as president...which is the main VP job.
She's a former cop/chief and has barely served three years as a "who" in the house. She doesn't have the gravitas for the position.
