Poll: Who should Biden pick as VP?

[woolfe9998]

CNN has a "top 10 list". I put 9 of them in the poll, so I could make the 10th option "other."

The top 10 women Joe Biden might choose as his VP

Thursday marks Joe Biden's first official day as the de facto 2020 Democratic presidential nominee.

My personal opinion, he shouldn't pick Harris. He needs no help with the black vote, and also needs no help in California.

I think he should go for Tammy Baldwin or Gretchen Witmer, because those two could deliver him Wisconsin or Michigan, respectively. My third choice would be Klobuchar. Fourth choice would be any qualified latina.

If your choice is "other" you can say who it is here.

Harris will be a lock to be in the administration. If not VP, then AG.

Probably so, but those other decisions are made after the election and right now I'm concerned exclusively about the election. So far as AG, for what it's worth I think he should pick Adam Schiff.

I think Stacey Abrams or Kamala Harris are very likely choices. I also think Tammy Duckworth would go a long way towards making the traditionally conservative military vote for him seeing as she's a veteran who lost limbs due to her service.

No Tulsi Gabbard, no care.

Harris will actually hurt his standing with the PoC community.

I know Buttigieg is not on the list, but I would pay money to see Pete debate Mike Pence. He's not my first choice anyway...for a man, probably Castro

I younger woman is the right choice... Klobuchar and Baldwin could help with some key states, and not only their own MN and WI respectively.

Harris? didn't she call Biden a racist on national television? Although she did endorse Biden

Whitmer of Michigan is not a bad choice - she won the Governor race by 10 points in late 2018.

Whitmer or Baldwin. For the poll... Whitmer

 

[ivwshane]

I say Warren only because she is a great public explainer which Biden is seriously lacking.

I see the appeal of a stacey Abrams but what does she bring to the table?

 

[Burpo]

Another man could be more appealing, in case Joe is in fact a 1 term Pres.
Sir Farts_alot Matt Gaetz for instance

I think your best choice if you’re going for ‘win the election at all costs’ is Klobuchar. It’s a good pick. I hold out some hope though that he would pick Warren because I feel like he would empower her and we need her in the executive branch because that’s where shit gets done.

Stacy Abrams would be a huge dose of charisma. Warren as AG only if her seat would be guaranteed safe. If ANY chance that seat could turn red then she needs to stay put.

Warren was my choice for the nomination, which obviously didn't pan out. The only reason I hesitate to put her in the VP slot is that she's in her 70's and is an east coaster, her section of the country he should already pull. A midwesterner might be better to pick up those swing states. I wouldn't be upset if he picked her though, she's older but seems healthy as a horse.

LOL. Tulsi Gabbard would be an absolutely terrible pick, but of course you would favor that kind of pick.

 

[theeedude]

Obama

 

[soulcougher73]

No Tulsi Gabbard, no care.

If only you were smart enough to see the "other" vote button. So sad.

 

[NostaSeronx]

Voting other, it probably should be a republican female like Mia Love, Jenean Hampton, etc. (Just examples, he might go whitey tighty all the way)

Democrats would vote for Blue. Republicans will vote for a red VP.

He needs a decisive win with a coalition vote. Anyone but Trump will be the best result. He needs to give a redemption out for Republicans. Quite literally needs to curb stomp republicans defaulting to Trump.

 

[ondma]

I voted for Klobuchar, because I like her policies. Somehow though, listening to her talk just reminds me of fingernails scratching on a blackboard. Cant really explain it, just something about her voice or body language.

Although I was not a strong supporter of Kamala Harris for president, I think she might make a good choice as vp, both politically and policy wise. She could serve as a bridge from the centrist Biden to a more progressive agenda. At least she would bring a shot of dynamism and energy into the campaign.

 

[snoopy7548]

Sanders would be cool.

 

[kage69]

I think it'll be Harris. She's Stacie Abrams with more experience, though either would work. Can also see a Klobachar or Duckworth as Veep.

I see Duckworth in particular really being a good choice to unnerve Trump and the rest of Team Treason. He's supposed to be a tough guy and patriot but Cadet Bonespurs is a cowardly pissant next to that *shudder* woman. Her service really puts the chickenhawk in a terrific light, not that it matters to his cult but plenty in the military need to be reminded this buffoon is not fit to be CiC.

It won't be Warren. She was too hard on him in the debates and is more valuable to America elsewhere.

 

[darkswordsman17]

I'm not familiar with most of them but I think its a good sign that there's a glut of viable potential running mates, indicates to me that there should be plenty of good options for cabinet and other positions in the Administration. Certainly would be superior to the absolute clownshit circus sideshow that Turmp has assembled.

Obama

Would almost be worth it for Republican head explosions that would happen.

 

[Moonbeam]

I was thinking what color roses I should bring to the countries funeral. Otherwise I would say Sanders or Trump.

 

[cytg111]

Warren .. she will draw the berns, female and the black vote. Its a nobrainer.
You need Harris as AG to fuck everything Trump residual leftover...

 

[dank69]

Warren .. she will draw the berns, female and the black vote. Its a nobrainer.

Yeah right Warren supporters and Sanders supporters may as well be the Montagues and Capulets. You know, because their preferred policies are so different.

 

[Starbuck1975]

Gretchen Whitmer. She helps Biden carry the Rust Belt. Also governors, not Senators, are the face of the pandemic response.

 

[BoomerD]

Obama

can't. He already served two terms.

How about HRC? Might be her chance...
