Let's see what pairing we like best...Kamala Harris edition...

If she gets the nod, who would pair best with Kamala Harris?

I actually like Buttigieg with her, but I can't quite figure out why...

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

Actually, I just plain like Joe Biden with her, they seem to complement so well, on the surface anyway. But even if he'd go for it, I'm not sure an elderly VP would be as reassuring as the spare is supposed to be.

Pete is young enough that at the end of 16 years (8 as VP, 8 as POTUS) he will still be a year younger (he will have just turned 55) than Kamala will be the day she is sworn in for her first term.

for the other should either of them win the nomination.

and the negative news about both of them right now would actually help them in the general election. they can also bring out some of the biggest bases of the democratic party.

remember the Clinton/Gore ticket ? it was about building on the common strength of both being from the south ? this would be similar but the appeal would be for the new changing demograhpics of the country which is more diverse.
