Biden/Warren

[SHRED]

I'm still on the fence but that ticket, in my opinion, has the best chance to beat tRump at this time.

[evertonfc]

1. not bad but

Biden/Abrams......We need some youth on ticket.

[SouthernProgressive]

5. I think that would be an extremely powerful ticket.

I think the VP is going to come from outside of the field.

[sheshe2]

23. Agreed.

I also do not want to lose our Senior Senator to the VP seat. She has a lot of unfinished work to do.

[HerbChestnut]

7. Better yet Warren/Abrams

I'd vote for that ticket.

[InAbLuEsTaTe]

8. I could easily vote for that ticket!!

Bernie & Elizabeth 2020!!!
Welcome to the revolution!!!

[Watchfoxheadexplodes]

2. I predict a shocker

Someone not expected and will propell them to a landslide.

[Thekaspervote]

6. I think that too!! Part of my reasoning is Obama picking Biden...complete surprise

[Funtatlaguy]

9. How bout Biden/Obama

Michelle Obama as VP.

[Skya Rhen]

20. Biden and Keisha Lance Bottoms (Mayor of Atlanta)

49 years old and very impressive...

[Drunken Irishman]

39. I want Biden-rice tbh

Susan Rice that is...

[stonecutter357]

3. I'm thinking Joe Biden / Kamala Harris , I like Biden/Warren also .

[SouthernProgressive]

4. You won't see a VP picked out of the field.

The only reason I hedge on that at all is because I can see someone picking Castro. I still don't think so.

I'm also not positive our field has fully formed yet. If Biden comes back in the polls and Warren, Harris, and Biden are at around 20% or less, look for a big name to jump in late. Really late.

The only person I think I have a really good pick for is Harris. I think a Harris/Crowley ticket would be great.

[Politicub]

16. Who do you think the big name might be?

I'm looking for someone to come in and shake things up, too. There's opportunity. But I don't know who that will be.

And pardon my ignorance, but who is Crowley?

[crazytown]

10. Harris. It will be Harris.

A tough on crime hawk and a prosecutor.

[Thekaspervote]

12. I think harris will decline.. just my opinion

[Victory_Minded]

25. Harris would definitely accept the VP spot

As would most of these candidates, with the exception of Biden and Sanders.

I do wonder if Warren would take it though.

[emmaverybo]

27. She would not be good at it. That role takes loyalty, playing second fiddle, not upstaging the

president and really is unsuited to her ambitions. Biden can find someone with more experience and who can help in states he would need.

[Victory_Minded]

32. Sure she would be good at it

There have been many ambitious VPs. Just cause one is ambitious doesn't mean one can't be loyal. Also, a VP candidate is usually one who is called on to go on the attack and fight. And we all know Harris can take it to someone.

We are in a primary right now. Sure, Harris is upstaging and taking it to Biden right now, as she should. But if Biden can win the nomination, all that changes as we move into the general election. Harris would be a smart pick for Biden and would be very loyal to him.

And yes, there are others who would be good picks for Biden too.

[emmaverybo]

36. She took it to him in an underhanded way. She tried to paint him as a segregationist. If I were

Biden, I simply would not trust her character. Further, there really are better choices.

[Victory_Minded]

42. No she did not

Harris simply challenged him on his OWN segregationists comments and record. She raised valid concerns. And Biden didn't know how to respond. Goodness, he even fell back on a states' rights defense.

Harris clearly stated that she didn't believe Biden was a racist. And if Biden (and his diehard supporters) can't deal with a polticial ally and friend challenging him, how in the world are they going to deal with Trump?

Harris is running in a primary against Biden. She wants the nomination just as much as Biden and has every right to challenge Biden as she did. And being challenged will only make Biden stronger if he ends up the nominee.

This is politics. And Biden knows this. I have no doubt that Harris will be high on his list for VP if he can win the nomination. Especially after what he saw from her in the debate. He knows she is a fighter.

[emmaverybo]

43. He didn't make segregationist remarks. Right there you show that you have bought into

the willful misinterpretation both Harris and Booker spread around and that news headlines took up.

In any case, if Biden is the nominee he will have some really strong people to select from.

[Victory_Minded]

44. Yes he did

He commented on working with segregationists. He essentially bragged about it and used it as an example of the "civility" he wants to return this nation too. He chose to make the remarks about segregationists.. No one forced him too.

And Harris was right to challenge him on those comments. No one is misrepresenting what Biden said or what his record is.

But I do agree that Biden will have strong people to choose from as would Harris or Warren or Sanders. If it is Biden though, Harris will be in the top 3.

[emmaverybo]

45. That is not the same as making segregationist remarks, which means something entirely

different, and more sinister, than mentioning working with two segregationists.

But it seems you do get that he did not make racist remarks.

We simply disagree about whether or not her attack was transparent,

In any case,I think it’s best if the prez and VP are allies of sorts and I don’t foresee that chemistry
in a Biden-Harris match up.
.
Certainly, we might be talking about Harris choosing a VP.

[AlexSFCA]

11. Biden/Warren is the best ticket as of now

we need her and BS supporters to stay engaged. Also, she has a plan for everything and Biden is not good st planning so she would play a much bigger role than any VP before.

[Blue_true]

14. A good part of Bernie's supporters are saying that they will support no one but him.

They have completely ruled out consideration of anyone else, even Warren. I hope that we can get that number down to as small a number as possible, but for now it is what it is.

[AlexSFCA]

17. biden may be able to attract more centrists and independents

to replace lost BS votes. If BS doesn’t drop out sooner than later, he will ruin the election for us.

[GulfCoast66]

21. Fuck them. They didn't vote for us the last time. And won't again.

Fortunately their on line presence is way higher than their actual numbers.

Hell, many of his delegates who booed John Lewis did not. They are not democrats but members of a cult of personality.

Love the 15% rule.

A huge majority of his supporters did and will vote for the Democratic candidate again. Don’t worry about the others. They are unreachable

[Blue_true]

22. I have to agree with your analysis. We have to focus on that which can be achieved. nt

[emmaverybo]

28. They have real differences and her agenda is firm. That agenda is contrary to Biden's.

[Blue_true]

13. At the risk of sounding ageist.

When I look at a two person ticket, one of my expectations is the second person will follow the first and have an administration of their own. A ticket with one person being 78 years old and the other being around 70 years old would be sort of a hard sell, IMO. That is why I think Harris, Castro, Booker, Gabbard are likely better positioned to be the number two if they don't win number one. If Harris wins the nomination, then Klobuchar, Gabbard and O'Rouke become the best vice presidential options, IMO.

A ticket that can be viewed as having two people of the same political bent would likely have issue, as would one that don't have racial, ethnic and gender balance. Maybe some see that as an uninformed statement, but IMO, that is the world that we live in today.

[Politicub]

15. I like that ticket, and I also

like Warren/Harris.

[nsd]

18. I like that ticket a lot because I like them both.

However, Biden will be 78 on inauguration day, while Warren will be 71. It's not impossible to sell that ticket anyway -- after all, Trump will be 74 -- but I don't think either Biden or Warren would take the handicap. If either one is the nominee, they'll go for someone in their 40's or 50's.

[still_one]

33. Excellent observation

[GulfCoast66]

19. Been saying for a year. Biden/Harris is unbeatable

Believe it more than ever.

They win Florida.

[Victory_Minded]

24. Or...

Harris/Buttigieg would be a strong forward-looking ticket. I'd also love to see a debate between Buttigieg and Pence. Would be a great chance for Buttigieg to challenge the hold Republicans think they have on religious/faith voters.

Also, Harris/Castro would be a good ticket too.

[Ohiogal]

29. I love the idea of Warren/Castro.

[Victory_Minded]

34. That would work too

Castro would be a strong VP choice for anyone.

I'm just not sure about Warren at the top of the ticket. I like her and would definitely support her if she is the nominee, but I'm just not sure how she would matchup against Trump in the general.

[LakeArenal]

26. Last week the golden ticket was Biden-Harris

No primary candidate.
Get Abrams or Porter.

Or Al Franken.

Why would we want someone who spent two years saying how wrong Joe is?

And yes, what suddenly happened to the ageists?

[still_one]

30. I like it, because at the very least it is a unifying ticket, but the primaries are a long way off

and the fact is EW may end up being the nominee

[BeyondGeography]

31. Major comparability issues there

No way.

[SidDithers]

35. Warren / Biden...

Lots of posts in this thread with people accessorizing Joe Biden with a female VP.

Warren
Harris
Abrams
Michelle Obama
Keisha Lance Bottoms
Tulsi
Katie Porter

Why, it's almost like posters believe a woman can't be at the top of the ticket.

Sid

[nsd]

37. Biden has already been VP.

He's not going to be second again.

[SidDithers]

38. Then I look forward to his retirement from active politics...

sometime around the 2nd week of July, 2020.

Sid

[nsd]

40. Ok ....

whatever

[Cha]

41. Yes.. that's the job that gives him all the

Executive Experience and Qualifications he has to be President.

[scardycat]

46. I like the Biden/Warren ticket too

Kamala Harris is going to burn out.
