19. Adding an African American VP will bring people all over the country.

I still predict a BidenHarris ticket wins Florida. Obama won here twice.

And surly the last 2 weeks have shown us all the real base of our party.

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

I could see good, compatible chemistry with Joe and Kamala. NBachers Mar 2020 #31

Should Biden be the nominee, I'd be happy with that iwannaknow Mar 2020 #46
Pure speculation. I think Joe was putting teasers out to get everybody's curiosity going. onetexan Mar 2020 #48
A black woman would be the best pick, but not Harris Pompoy Mar 2020 #49
