Freshmen California US Senator Kamala Harris should be McAullife's Vice Presidential runningmate. Harris is a US Senator from the west coast, non white female, former State Attorney General and county District Attorney General. Harris is the 2nd most progressive US Senator.

(8,617 posts)Kamala Harris is popular with the grassroots class of the Democratic Party and Terry McAullife is popular with the donor class of the Democratic Party.
The reason why I picked McAullife as the Presidential candidate in 2020 and Harris as the Vice Presidential candidate in 2020 is because-the likely Republican nominee barring an impeachment or resignation is going to be Donald Trump who has and will have higher unfavorable and disapproval ratings than McAullife. McAullife will be able to defeat Trump in the popular vote and electoral college-MI,PA,WI,and FL could turn into blue states. Harris could run for President in 2028 after serving 2 terms as Vice President. Harris could be able win in 2028.

We in CA have much more experience with passing progressive legislation.
Put someone like Harris or Newsom in the White House.

(8,617 posts)The important question about T-Mac is his position on higher taxes on the wealthy. Does he support raising taxes on wealthy individuals or corporations to pay for Healthcare services for All Americans and Balance the Budget?
The problem with T-Mac is that he is pro big business.
