We aren't nominating a woman candidate any time soon. It's not right, but it's the near term reality.

So it's going to be one of the two leading male governors probably. Whomever the VP is should be Hispanic.

WASP MALE At minimum to start. get real with yourselves if we ever want to win an election, win in rural areas ever again!

Andy Beshear - WASP Male, popular in a red state. needs to improve his national prominence.
Tim Walz - Popular home town attitude too, may have baggage due to being part of this losing ticket but i still like him. and WASP Male
Gavin - too metro sexual, and from california, but he's been successful, has national prominence and WASP Male
lets continue this list.
Fetterman - has the look, the attitude, can appeal to trump voters, but can he be as charismatic after his stroke? did he piss off the palestinian / muslim wing of the democratic party?
we need to pander to WHITE MEN as well while not giving up our fundamental democratic / liberal / woke values. it's purely a numbers game

buttegeig - you won't get any rural conservative votes for a gay man no matter how excellent he is
shapiro - same but with a jew

need i continue?
