...I am looking at one for VP and one for AG. I am thinking Liz as VP and Kamala as AG.

Truly (except for one notable exception), I love ALL who are running. I would have no problem voting for whoever gets the nomination.

ANY DEM - 2020!!!!!

2. Kamala was a great candidate.
Thu Dec 5, 2019, 12:53 PM

I am hoping that she will be Joe Biden's VP, positioning herself to become President when Joe Biden leaves. Almost 1 in 3 Vice Presidents have gone on to become President, and Kamala would be there, ready to step in, if something happens to Joe. Also...

Welcome to Team Joe!

You have made the wise choice of going with the Democratic Presidential Candidate who has, by far, the most political experience of any of the candidates. He also polls the best against Donald Trump and polls the best in the super important non-college-educated group of voters that the Democrats did not win in 2016 as well as doing very well in the Rustbelt that was the turning point in 2016. He's someone who has spent his entire life working for the Democratic Party, and he knows how to get bills passed in Congress.

Congratulations on your excellent choice, and again, Welcome To Team Joe!

He can beat trump.

He will rebuild our sabotaged government departments.

He is respected by the leaders of the world. He will restore our tarnished reputation.

coming. Biden is most likely the nominee...your candidate no so much as he can't win the AA voters...hardly taking a nap to support the front runner and likely nominee...more ageism I guess. I don't mind policy debates but out and out attacks are troubling...especially on a great Democrat like Biden.

I just want to make sure that we get the A-hole out of the WH.

My thinking is that Joe can do this and then set up his VP as the next Dem Prez.

BTW: No need to be nasty, OK?

I could still vote for Biden or Warren, depending mostly on the candidates' polling versus Trump in key states.

The most important thing is to beat Trump, and I'm willing to support whichever Democratic candidate is most likely to win.
