Democratic Primaries
Related: About this forumMy dream ticket is
Warren / Harris. Some here have opined its not electable.
Second choice is Warren / Booker.
I could live with Biden / Warren.
Thoughts?
Listening to Timothy Snyder on Brian Williams last night - he believes Dems need to have a change agent at the top of our ticket, to win. Warren fits that bill.

(49,007 posts)Biden has been and can be again the best VP of modern times. But his time has passed to be President unless he were to be called to ascend to the position due to tragedy, in which case he would do well, but not as well as Warren.

(6,229 posts)Biden running with a strong, progressive, Dem woman like Harris or Stacey Abrams.

(42,862 posts)... I think he'd just support the nominee and give advice if asked.
But, it's difficult to predict the future (save one). I'm hopeful that there will be unity after the convention.

(42,862 posts)... but I think there are some who put their pride above everything else, and who value "revenge" and "lesson-teaching" more than they are patriotic. One person who comes to mind is Susan Sarandon... she's the worst... a Stein-supporter and a total loon... and there are others.

(3,268 posts)but we could complete the trifecta of inclusion by adding a woman and an LBGT to having already chosen Barrack Obama.

(9,895 posts)I am warming to Warren at the top of ticket (have always liked her message, policies and empathetic nature)...
VP's (in no order):
Harris
Buttigieg
Booker
Yang
Can't see Biden ever returning as a VP, nor Sanders, who would remain a senator instead.
Dark horse ticket (for balance)?
Warren - Klobuchar
For everyone freaking out about MFA as a huge stumbling block, look at reality...if you START negotiations AGAIN by taking the biggest stick OFF THE TABLE (biggest mistake made in Obamacare negotiations IMO), then you begin bargaining to even less desirable systems. MFAWC (Medicare for All who choose) or a straight Public Option available to all is a far more likely compromise if you don't START there...maybe MFA is a bridge too far (I do not believe it is), but taking it off the table again would only hamstring the effort once more.
Everything else about Warren is massively enticing to me and like I said, the Democratic nominee has my vote and my time next year at this time no matter what!

(584 posts)Biden is NOT my favorite candidate policyspeakingwise. But I perceive his EC-electionalabilty as the highest and that is what is most important.
Period.
