That wasn't the joke I was making though. My joke was that Trump was considering making a serial rapists his VP pick. I don't disagree with the point you're making I'm just confused as to why you think it's relevant.

The guy who played Hyde is a serial rapist. He was in the running for Trumps VP.

1000% agree. I'm not stoked about, most likely, not voting in a dem primary for 8 years. Harris wouldn't be my first choice but I don't wanna deflate the hype train at all. Hoping for a super majority in congress, that would be the big win. Really hope true progressives can accomplish as much as possible with that. Last time it happened for dems we got the ACA, that should be the minimum benchmark.

HARRIS/ANONYMOUS GENERIC WHITE GUY 2024!

AOC's district is dark blue. It won't effect the votes much. It would raise AOCs profile if she has ambitions for POTUS but that's so many hypotheticals.

The most immediate impact is that it would motivate the base. Dems need voter turnout to win. 2 women lashing the Republicans over abortion rights is a winner imo on top of AOCs popularity with the base. There are sound reasons for it. Not saying I think it's a good idea though.

The weakness this election cycle, for the dems, is the apathy of the base. In that context AOC would be a pretty solid choice.

I don't think there time for an actual primary. I'd favor an open convention tbh.

Do you really think there are undecided voters? This has been the 2 candidates for 5 years. This election is about voter engagement and turnout. Biden and Harris both lose on that.

It's odd to see you put so much of Palestine on Bidens lap. It's been an issue for at least 40-50 years.

I remember what Obama said in his memoir about Isreal, how that is such a tricky issue for Dems. Isreal is the only consistent military ally in the region. A President has an obligation, as commander and chief of the military. You have into major consideration in the area of the region that's is most likely to commit act of foreign terrorism against the US.

100% agree with this sentiment. 1 day debate, 2nd or third day, delegate vote. Imagine a national conversation where the cornerstone is about the policies of the democratic platform. Compare them to the policies of the GOP. That will be a huge W for the party, especially down ticket.
