If I were Biden and Warren -

[Reposted from GD]


I'd be announcing, ASAP, that they would run together as a team.

President Joe handles international triage on our reputation. That will be a full time job, right there.

Vice-President Elizabeth works with Congress to develop a budget that reflects the present reality - one that demands serious economic change and restructuring.

Joe could/maybe should be a 1 termer, but if Sen. Warren can get the economy going in the right direction, I can see her as invincible in 2024.

This would be a solid, economically progressive Democratic team.

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

Putting aside all of my other criticisms of Bloomberg, I think we need diversity on the ticket in terms of race, gender, age, region, etc. - or at least some of those characteristics. How is two older white males reflective of our party today?
