(112,186 posts)I also, am not sure the country is ready for him. I do not know if he would add or subtract from the ticket at this time. Does it matter?

(3,093 posts)They know that the solution requires sacrifice from the millionaire and billionaire class. Every problem we "can't solve" is rooted in greed and unfettered capitalism. Their strategy to incite culture wars is to distract and divide the populace. If we're fighting each other, we're not effectively fighting the ones who really have all the power.

(1,535 posts)in 2020. He didn't balk and say maybe this is a bad call and the country isn't ready for a black woman. He put the best person for job on the ticket as his VP. And she's been outstanding. I think young people are past ready for this ticket and I think this ticket would mobilize OUR voters, which is what we need. We aren't going to win the bigot vote anyway, not with a black woman at the top of the ticket, so what's the point in worrying about their reaction to Pete? Let's worry about energizing OUR voters, who love Pete! Young people are going crazy over on TikTok!

Both Kamala and Pete are excellent communicators. I think they would make a dynamite ticket together. The haters weren't going to vote for Kamala anyway, and imagine how motivated every non-bigoted thinking person in this country would be.
