Ditto. n/t blitzen Jun 2020 #1
Susan Rice has always been one of my top favorites, especially based on her still_one Jun 2020 #2
She's my #1 too, for the reasons you set forth. Mike 03 Jun 2020 #3
I'll add: and she's not a sitting US Senator, so no risk of losing a seat JHB Jun 2020 #4
Exactly! ElementaryPenguin Jun 2020 #6
Exactly!!! Mike 03 Jun 2020 #13
Yes. She certainly can defend herself! ElementaryPenguin Jun 2020 #14
She's been my pick all along. padfun Jun 2020 #5
i honestly can't think of anyone I'd had more confidence in that could step in and be President... ElementaryPenguin Jun 2020 #9

But Benghazi is such a loser issue for the GOP ElementaryPenguin Jun 2020 #11
Nobody gives a crap about Benghazi any more. The Velveteen Ocelot Jun 2020 #12
They really don't. ElementaryPenguin Jun 2020 #22
For the relatively few MAGA Cultist, ... why? uponit7771 Jun 2020 #26

Oh, yes. NCjack Jun 2020 #8
I think it would be insane. No reason to introduce controversy with a VP pick tritsofme Jun 2020 #10
Fox News will find a controversy for every VP choice. ElementaryPenguin Jun 2020 #17
I disagree, it would be a major unforced error. tritsofme Jun 2020 #21
Respectfully, I'm not sure there are (any better options). ElementaryPenguin Jun 2020 #24
This is crazy, Bhengazi was dead issue to the left then you think it'd be out front now ?! Really?!? uponit7771 Jun 2020 #29
Why favor right wing positions for dem candidates? None of that matters to the left uponit7771 Jun 2020 #27
Good point. ElementaryPenguin Jun 2020 #31
What right wing positions? She has unfairly become controversial. tritsofme Jun 2020 #60
She's ... NOT ... controversial among left progressives. Who cares about right wing stupids? Not ... uponit7771 Jun 2020 #61
I guarantee the Biden camp's deliberations on the subject are not this cavalier tritsofme Jun 2020 #63
Shocked? Really? I wouldn't. ElementaryPenguin Jun 2020 #64
I think very highly of her as well, just don't think she is a good VP option. tritsofme Jun 2020 #65
That's not an answer to the question. Stupid right wing issues are not issues on the left or even... uponit7771 Jun 2020 #66
Because if we pick just the right person, the right wing won't attack and lie about them StarfishSaver Jun 2020 #67
I think Kamala Harris or Val Demings would each be stronger VP picks. tritsofme Jun 2020 #68
I've heard her speak, volstork Jun 2020 #15
She's so methodical and level-headed. ElementaryPenguin Jun 2020 #19
Another couple of great volstork Jun 2020 #20
Yep. ElementaryPenguin Jun 2020 #36
This is not like deciding how to vote; I'll get 100% behind whomever Joe Biden picks. Towlie Jun 2020 #16
Me too. ElementaryPenguin Jun 2020 #18
Same here Pacifist Patriot Jun 2020 #23
I could get on board with her... Wounded Bear Jun 2020 #25
Kinda hoping someone around Joe catches this thread. ElementaryPenguin Jun 2020 #28
I have to imagine Ms Rice is on the short list... Wounded Bear Jun 2020 #30
I agree. And she's very close to Biden. ElementaryPenguin Jun 2020 #33
No...it will be Benghazi, Benghazi and Benghazi. Demsrule86 Jun 2020 #32
Benghazi was an absolute nothing burger back then... ElementaryPenguin Jun 2020 #35
Bad idea....hands the Trumpers ammo. Demsrule86 Jun 2020 #69
Duckworth will be the pick IMO BannonsLiver Jun 2020 #52
She eould be grest. Demsrule86 Jun 2020 #70
Val was on MJ today and pretty good. CTyankee Jun 2020 #34
great idea! nt kstewart33 Jun 2020 #37
I see her as the next SoS but I would certainly be happy if she was VP Blasphemer Jun 2020 #38
I do not want the narrative to be Bettie Jun 2020 #39
I think she is terrific NewJeffCT Jun 2020 #40
I agree, she'd make a great Secretary of State. ElementaryPenguin Jun 2020 #45
Susan Rice checks all the boxes. shockey80 Jun 2020 #41
I think she would be perfect for Secretary of State. nt Tommy_Carcetti Jun 2020 #42
I liked her before these riots, and like her even more now. eom. Alex4Martinez Jun 2020 #43
My sentiments exactly. ElementaryPenguin Jun 2020 #48
No! Rice would need on the job VP training. It is imperative that the VP have Congressional and Ninga Jun 2020 #44
She's brilliant. She'd learn that process. ElementaryPenguin Jun 2020 #47
It would take precious time away from being productive. On the job training is often Ninga Jun 2020 #53
I am liking Demings or Bottoms jcgoldie Jun 2020 #46
I like them both a lot too. ElementaryPenguin Jun 2020 #54
Biden/Harris 2020. MrsCoffee Jun 2020 #49
Good ticket, too. ElementaryPenguin Jun 2020 #56
She would be my 1st choice. nt cry baby Jun 2020 #50
Gotta be on Biden's short list. ElementaryPenguin Jun 2020 #55
Ham sandwich. I'm in. nt Baltimike Jun 2020 #57
True dat! LOL! ElementaryPenguin Jun 2020 #58
Sober, intelligent, caring, thoughtful, . . . everything Pense is not. skip fox Jun 2020 #59
My Gawd, would she ever pummel Pence in a debate! ElementaryPenguin Jun 2020 #62
Susan Rice or Elizabeth Warren. nt leftyladyfrommo Jun 2020 #71
