27. Joe owes AA voters in the south

But Amy and Pete voters in the north.

He would have lost Massachusetts, Minnesota, Texas, and Maine without her and Pete’s endorsements.

Amy has earned and deserves the VP slot. She was the first to endorse. Singlehandedly gave him Minnesota.

Where was Harris? She could have joined up, but didn’t.

Harris for AG. Amy for VP.

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

I agree. I also think Stacy Abrams should be considered. I am puzzled why Harris hasn't endorsed still_one Mar 2020 #52

I find your attack on Amy disgusting. squirecam Mar 2020 #40
That would be a big surprize to some of her long term staffers. judeling Mar 2020 #64
Objectively, NedBraden Mar 2020 #23
I actually agree with you. judeling Mar 2020 #66

Val Demings from Florida should be in consideration..... FM123 Mar 2020 #26
VP should be no one that is a current senator ace3csusm Mar 2020 #30
Klobuchar or Harris. Someone under sixty years old as well. comradebillyboy Mar 2020 #33
Mais oui! Mme. Defarge Mar 2020 #35
What constituency does she bring to the table? ibegurpard Mar 2020 #36
Gonna look real weird, her VP run being supported financially at least in part by Bloomberg. BusyBeingBest Mar 2020 #57

I like her a lot. But if I was Biden, I would pick Abrams. She can clear a pretty wide path for him. Vivienne235729 Mar 2020 #58

I'm not a fan of hers. I would much prefer someone else. (eom) StevieM Mar 2020 #67
