I don't see what Gillum adds to the ticket. Abrams would be a great choice, but she will almost certainly sit 2020 out and challenge Kemp in 2022. Am I the only one that thinks there aren't any perfect VP options? Like for any of the candidates?
Tammy Duckworth would be a good VP IMO.
Heck yeah, she’s one of my favourite candidates for VP.
- She brings military experience to the ticket, in a way that demands respect, but also has experience protecting vets.
- She brings a geographical balance to the ticket, representing the Midwest, which will likely take centre stage.
- She’s a proficient debater with a cool head, as shown in her 2016 debate with Mark Kirk, making her an ideal contrast with Mike Pence.
- Her nomination would assure Asian-Americans that the Democratic Party is not unaware of their role as an emerging demographic whose importance will only grow in the coming years.
- She has an incredible life story, and is a model of resilience, who I imagine could have widespread appeal.
