49. Then how 'bout Kamala Harris? Or Stacey Abrams?

OR Warren? As VP. Any of those illustrious, brilliant, and accomplished women would be VERY well positioned to go for the next “big one.” And by the end of two terms, there may we’ll be even more.

Bench strength. That’s what we need, and what we’ve got. And that grows by the day.

And who’ve they got (on the other side)? Nobody. Other than Nikki Haley. And that’s about IT. And none of them on that side of the aisle are clamoring to put a woman on the ticket. Hell, they barely even consider a woman as being worth that. We’re just containers to the GOP. That’s about it for the value they place on women.

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