Joe BidenCongratulations to our presumptive Democratic nominee, Joe Biden!
 
36. I think she'd be better as Secretary of Defense.

I'd like to see Elizabeth Warren as VP, Kamala Harris as Attorney General (and SCOTUS justice-in-waiting), Amy Klobuchar as Secretary of State. I'm still working on what position would be best for Sanders.

If I were to vote in a presidential
primary today, I would vote for:
