Your VP pick from a list of some of the rumored choices

[ecstatic]

16. So the other day I looked at brief video clips of Kelly, Beshear, Shapiro, and others.

I had an immediate attraction to Shapiro in just 30 seconds. Everything he said was what I want to hear from a candidate.

I wasn't really impressed by what I saw from the others for various reasons, some of which I'll admit are petty (accents, appearance).

All of that said, I really like Shapiro, I really like Wes Moore, and I really like Pete B, but I think we should only have one unprecedented candidate at a time. We need to be able to quickly understand what works and what doesn't work so that if something goes wrong we can tweak it in the future. We also have to be mindful about the current areas of tension within our coalition.

It's really effed up but I think we're forced to have a traditional white male VP at this time. The choices that I've been made aware of are boring but whatever. The focus should just be on winning the White House. That's it. Hopefully if an older candidate is chosen, s/he will be willing to step aside in eight years so that we don't end up in a similar situation again.
