I wonder if Whitmer would accept the VP slot if offered

for the VP slot. We don't need any more drama, controversy or division.

Also, good Harris will make a great candidate AND (hopefully) president.

This is a minefield for candidates with future aspirations of higher office and I'm glad to see she has enough political savvy not to fall for it.
Full-throated support for Biden was the play before and now choosing not to challenge Kamala is the play now for those that want to have a viable future in the Democratic Party.

They'd make a good team and a big change in American exceptionalism.
