I think we really need a veteran on the ticket.
I like Walz, and agree he can talk to rural America.
He can also talk to veterans as a brother in arms.

My husband suggested that he resign his commission with the MN Army National Guard as a Command Sargent Major if he was to devote his time to run for Congress. He did that.
Tim was awesome on Jen Psaki tonite. This is the man I have known as a friend for 19 years.
