In reply to the discussion: Joe Biden Hints That Kamala Harris Could Be His VP...👩🏽 [View all]PatSeg
(49,562 posts)34. I think Gavin's long range political plan
is to get to the White House. He has been strategic with his political choices - mayor of San Francisco, Lt. Governor, and then governor. Some thought he would try for governor after being mayor, but he took his time and was part of a winning administration with Jerry Brown. I think he would make a great presidential candidate some day. I just thought he might want to try the senate first, but 2021 would be too soon for him to leave the governorship.
Ted Lieu, Adam Schiff, or Katie Porter are all great choices. California has so much great talent. I think I'd might prefer Schiff to be the next Speaker of the House. He's earned it. I can't imagine anyone better, well after Nancy Pelosi. He's a natural leader.
