25. Biden is too smart to go for BS.

The best VP choice will be someone who is still young enough to run for POTUS after Biden's term is completed. Add 8 years to Bernie's age now... and it's clear to anyone that he won't be be running again. He'd be 86 and trying to convince everyone that he'd be fit enough to serve until he's 94. No. Not gonna happen. Bernie will NOT be Biden's VP running mate.

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