Democratic Primaries
Showing Original Post only (View all)Question for Bernie supporters- VP pick? [View all]
Who would Bernie make as his VP pick?
I was always hoping stacey abrams would be someones pick but I do not think she would accept with Bernie. Not sure a Harris would either.
The only person that would be strong VP choice that agrees with him is Warren. That would be a great ticket but we lose a senate seat. I do not think as Dems we can afford to lose a senate seat for VP.
Just not sure if he can put forth a good VP.
primary today, I would vote for: Undecided

She's not dumb. She knows that the odds that Sanders wins the general is slim.

In those polls, he barely beats Trump and that is with Republicans openly SUPPORTING his candidacy.

I do have to laugh at even the suggestion that a ticket such as that would do well in swing states

First, a candidate needs to gain 50% of the delegates in order to win the nomination.

Julin Castro. He's young, smart and a person of color. And he might just enable the ticket
