I didn't like her before this campaign, and I now like her even less.

If I were to vote in a presidential
primary today, I would vote for:
Joe Biden
I was leaning towards Amy before she dropprd out. bluescribbler Mar 2020 #1
We do not need two moderates on the ticket, especially two white moderates. LonePirate Mar 2020 #2
That is not what he wants. squirecam Mar 2020 #4
Evidently what he wants and what the party needs are two different things. LonePirate Mar 2020 #6
The party will vote for Joe. squirecam Mar 2020 #7
We won twice with two moderates on the ticket treestar Mar 2020 #10
The more moderates IluvPitties Mar 2020 #50
I like her a lot but not on a ticket with Joe. He needs a woman of color, IMHO. pnwmom Mar 2020 #3
You pick the best person for the job. squirecam Mar 2020 #5
And there's no black females suitable for the job? Turin_C3PO Mar 2020 #8
Don't put words into my mouth. squirecam Mar 2020 #9
Harris is an excellent choice who-- on a ticket with Joe-- would excite voters all over the country. pnwmom Mar 2020 #13
I disagree squirecam Mar 2020 #15
I know LOTS of moderate suburban women in the midwest, pnwmom Mar 2020 #29
I agree that we need more ethnic diversity on our presidential/vice-presidential tickets. StevieM Mar 2020 #81
Wrong. People of color are the backbone of our party and need to see themselves pnwmom Mar 2020 #11
Joe will have a diverse administration. squirecam Mar 2020 #12
Not the same. nt pnwmom Mar 2020 #14
Luckily you will vote for him anyway. squirecam Mar 2020 #16
Joe already has their votes. Mme. Defarge Mar 2020 #22
Enthusiasm matters. If he wants numbers of black voters like Obama had, pnwmom Mar 2020 #28
They want trump gone. squirecam Mar 2020 #31
Moderate suburban women HATE Trump. They'll turn out. n/t pnwmom Mar 2020 #38
Not as much as AA voters do. squirecam Mar 2020 #39
Moderate suburban women love Biden. We don't need the female version of Biden pnwmom Mar 2020 #41
It is absurd to suggest that women love Biden more than AA voters. squirecam Mar 2020 #48
Moderate suburban women are the ones I'm referring to -- not all women. Most of the women pnwmom Mar 2020 #60
Why is choosing the best person not enough for you? squirecam Mar 2020 #61
Because I don't think being from Minnesota makes her the best person nt pnwmom Mar 2020 #62
That is one thing. squirecam Mar 2020 #63
It should be a woman of color and there are a number of them who are very qualified pnwmom Mar 2020 #64
I believe Klobuchar is the most qualified. I hate that the pundits are DEMANDING... Kahuna7 Mar 2020 #17
A woman VP of any color is historic. squirecam Mar 2020 #18
Indeed. nt Kahuna7 Mar 2020 #19
I'd go with that. Kingofalldems Mar 2020 #20
Swing voters do not like aggressive women who point fingers while debating Awsi Dooger Mar 2020 #21
All of this. squirecam Mar 2020 #23
Biden is already appealing to moderate women Dem4Life1102 Mar 2020 #26
Biden already brings the AA vote. squirecam Mar 2020 #32
So did Clinton but not in the numbers needed Dem4Life1102 Mar 2020 #68
But he hasn't announced a VP choice. If he chooses someone spooky3 Mar 2020 #34
Experience doesn't matter in electoral politics. Dem4Life1102 Mar 2020 #42
Trump's election was clearly an aberration, and sentient spooky3 Mar 2020 #47
Right squirecam Mar 2020 #51
Exactly nt spooky3 Mar 2020 #53
Hopefully Dem4Life1102 Mar 2020 #69
That's why I would argue that relevant political experience spooky3 Mar 2020 #75
Experience is irrelevant Dem4Life1102 Mar 2020 #77
OK, I already explained that, so I'll stop here. nt spooky3 Mar 2020 #78
Buh bye Dem4Life1102 Mar 2020 #79
Who is Brown? Sugarcoated Mar 2020 #72
Sherrod Brown squirecam Mar 2020 #74
Of course... Sugarcoated Mar 2020 #84
1) Biden already has the AA vote, and Mme. Defarge Mar 2020 #24
While you make some good points Dem4Life1102 Mar 2020 #33
Look at her chart. squirecam Mar 2020 #36
Yes and there is already a moderate/centerist on the ticket Dem4Life1102 Mar 2020 #40
Yes squirecam Mar 2020 #43
No she doesn't Dem4Life1102 Mar 2020 #44
You keep talking about progressive voters. squirecam Mar 2020 #45
AOC is too young Dem4Life1102 Mar 2020 #66
Virginia is going to go Dem again this year. Check out spooky3 Mar 2020 #49
Great Dem4Life1102 Mar 2020 #65
You make excellent points Sugarcoated Mar 2020 #73
Great choice unless you want to win the Electoral College Dem4Life1102 Mar 2020 #25
Biden has given his requirements. squirecam Mar 2020 #30
Minnesota is not a swing state Dem4Life1102 Mar 2020 #37
They are already energized. squirecam Mar 2020 #46
Or, why should women be ruled out on the basis of skin color? Nt spooky3 Mar 2020 #52
Not ruling any woman out based on skin color. squirecam Mar 2020 #54
No, I know you aren't; the poster to whom you replied spooky3 Mar 2020 #58
Right. Apologies. squirecam Mar 2020 #59
no apologies are needed; I was unclear. nt spooky3 Mar 2020 #76
I'm basing on Dem4Life1102 Mar 2020 #67
Me too. squirecam Mar 2020 #70
No seat to get Dem4Life1102 Mar 2020 #71
Meh. LaurenOlimina Mar 2020 #27
I don't like her! nt USALiberal Mar 2020 #35
You don't have to. squirecam Mar 2020 #55
Of course I will, but Harris a much better pick! nt USALiberal Mar 2020 #56
She is much better for AG. squirecam Mar 2020 #57
so harris can do the work DonCoquixote Mar 2020 #80
Harris is better as AG squirecam Mar 2020 #83
by telling the black women who vote for us DonCoquixote Mar 2020 #85
Neither do I. StevieM Mar 2020 #82
Same thinking that gave us Tim Kaine 👎🏽 denem Mar 2020 #86
Yup It is Dem4Life1102 Mar 2020 #87
