I agree, "I think the last blow of losing his son is telling". That was a huge loss, he went on with life because he has a loving family, grandchildren who need him in their life. Must be so hard for him & his family now with the social distancing/pandemic.

I think Biden knows he needs a strong VP, someone who can go to these interviews and speak well about the campaign & D party platform.

Joe himself said very recently, "a VP who is ready to be President". That's a very short list IMO and probably shouldn't exclude a gender.

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