Democratic Primaries
Related: About this forumDid Kamala Harris toss any chance at a possible VP selection if Biden gets the nomination?
Do you think the Biden team will consider Harris as VP after the negative attacks?
I think she is taking an all or nothing approach and is not interested in VP now, it's either get the Presidential nomination or stay a Senator.

A lot of things get said in primaries that are hurtful to one candidate or another. By the end, I think most forgive each other and move forward.

(59,492 posts)In some ways, that job with the constant travel is tougher than the VP position he had and in physical terms may be harder than President. Go back and look at how exhausted Hillary was even 2 years in. If you watched the Final Year, you would see how Kerry seemed to use every ounce of energy he had -- and he is younger than Biden even now and extremely athletic - and Biden would start 4 years later.
I hope that whoever wins, picks someone like Wendy Sherman as Secretary and then - as in Obama's first term - uses many senior people as special envoys where they fit best - possibly including Kerry, Biden and Clinton -- and even Obama as a VERY special envoy. There will be a need to reset a lot of areas.

I just don't see how she would compliment Joe as part of his ticket as long as they are opposed to one another on the issue of health care. Besides, he wants to win, and anyone campaigning on taking away employer insurance and replacing it by jumping straight to MFA is just going to drag the ticket down. Before today I had narrowed down my choices to Joe or Pete. But after hearing MSNBC's unrelenting bashing of Joe for over 3 hours straight in the background this morning I shut it off in disgust and decided I'm going to go with Joe. For a running mate I think he should absolutely make a diverse pick.

(25,183 posts)Joe Biden was trying to be positive about Barack Obama, but he did so in an extremely clumsy way. Obama was gracious enough to see that.
Sen. Harris was trying to make Biden out as some kind of racist, even though she prefaced her with, "I don't believe you are a racist, BUT". That's a personal insult of a high degree in the Democratic Party. Even when Bush the Elder called Ronald Reagan's prosperity plan "voodoo economics", it was maligning the plan, not the man.

If Biden gets the nod, his people will carefully add up all the points for any VP choice, and if Harris looks like she'll help, all things are forgiven and she'll be asked. Then she calculates between taking the job and staying in the Senate.

(13,390 posts)Another question would be did we discover another reason why he does not represent the future. When he joined with legislators whose opposition to bussing was based on the preservation of segregation he promoted a policy that might have been a barrier to women who want or have wanted to be on that stage.
His calculus appears to be based on an assumption that anti-bussing stories will outweigh success stories.
It says a lot about whose opinions he listens to and values. The anti-bussing sentiment naturally includes the voices of the loudest segregationists.
He might have offered a caveat that he should also have countered them with initiatives for major federal investments in schools in locales that did not have a large enough property tax base to generate equitable funding for schools.

(37,648 posts)The President has a two-term restriction. There is no restriction on the VP, that I saw. In fact, it looks like Obama could be Biden's VP! LOL.
The term of office for both the vice president and the president is four years. While the Twenty-Second Amendment generally restricts the president to two terms,[55] there is no such limitation on the office of vice president, meaning an eligible person could hold the office as long as voters continued to vote for electors who in turn would reelect the person to the office; one could even serve under different presidents. This has happened twice: George Clinton (18051812) served under both Thomas Jefferson and James Madison; and John C. Calhoun (18251832) served under John Quincy Adams and Andrew Jackson.[17] Additionally, neither the Constitution's eligibility provisions nor the Twenty-second Amendment's presidential term limit explicitly disqualify a twice-elected president from serving as vice president. As of the 2016 election cycle however, no former president has tested the amendment's legal restrictions or meaning by running for the vice presidency.
primary today, I would vote for: Undecided
customerserviceguy
(25,183 posts)The VP has to meet the same qualifications as a person to be elected President. As Barack Obama has served two terms as President, he is no longer eligible to be President, and thus, is not qualified Constitutionally to be VP.
It is true that the 22nd Amendment has not been tested, but I could easily see a unanimous vote to uphold every letter of the law, and the spirit of it, too.
primary today, I would vote for: Joe Biden
Honeycombe8
(37,648 posts)The Prez cannot be elected to a third time.
The person who was Prez CAN be elected as VP on a ticket. But not as Prez.
If the constitution meant that the person who had been Prez twice couldn't be elected to the administration again, it would have said so. It would have been easy to say that, but it did not.
But I don't think it'd ever happen. Top execs don't normally come back as juniors. A huge step down. And they make beaucoup money as former Presidents.

(37,648 posts)Franken's damage is too recent, unfortunately. Schiff is needed where he is. Juan Castro? Why?
The reason:
The VP usually brings with him/her some cache'. Bringing in a needed state, already has a base of supporters to bring along, campaign money to add to the pot, the VP represents an area of the country that the President does not, is good on the campaign trail to rally for the ticket, popular w/the party base.
Doesn't have to be one of the others. But they usu. choose someone with one or more of the things listed above.
