(16,616 posts)Her knowledge of foreign and domestic politics is both wide and deep.
She meets the criteria Biden set of wanting to pick a candidate who is qualified and experienced enough to be president "on day one"
Having observed her now for some time, she has an ability to speak on a tremendously wide range of issues extemporaneously at a moment's notice, making her someone we can trust to perform well in any debate or interview.
She's drop-dead brilliant and a great speaker. Because of her immense experience, she already knows what she thinks about the issues, which means she doesn't have to "rehearse" or learn talking points. She's sincere in her knowledge already, and prepared to share it eloquently.
Her knowledge of foreign and international relations is what I think we need to patch up our reputation around the world, to crack down on our opponents and to make amends with our alienated allies.
Her strong ethics and moral compass. Her sense of righteous indignation rings true.
#2 Kamala Harris
In polling I've seen she is the overwhelming favorite, which is always good for buttressing enthusiasm in November.
#3 Whoever Joe picks. I don't have a strong #3 in mind.
Whoever he picks, I'll get behind!
