People don't realize how divisive Warren is to the regular public. There are a lot of people who will totally vote for Biden but vehemently do not like Warren. It just is what it is. She possibly harms the ticket more than she helps.

She just endorsed Teresa Greenfield,  with 4/4 Congressional districts at stake, smart move, since she wants to be Veep.
JD Scholten, whom.is Charlie Brown sounding will beat King.

Some on the forum dont want Warren, due to fact, if she resigned to be Veep, Kennedy or Pressley will run

Again, taking Whitmer or Grisham, away from their states doesnt look smart for incumbent Govs.😍😍😍

Gov Bullock is staying in his home state, eventhough he is running for Senate and is being rewarded by having a 7 or lead over Daines.

Warren will be Veep, the Dems can change the succession law. They have 2/3rds majority in both chambers of state legislators 😍😍😍

It will be smart to pick Warren during 4th of July weekend, big holiday in Boston.

Its gonna be Warren, she has accepted the spot already, she said when she endorsed Biden, she would be proud to be his Veep.

Yeah, I'm sure you have the scoop. Please refrain from idiotic conclusions like this.

Look at this article, this explains why I made my statement about Warren Veepstakes


Warren pivots on Medicare in all out bid to be Veepstakes 😍😍😍

Veepstakes is no big deal, the Veep does is breaks ties in the Senate and works with their own party on legislation if their party holds the WH and the Congress.  If party is in the minority in the Senate, they travel mostly abroad or works in the WH. It's not a big deal

Val Demings and Rice and Abramd are being picked. If anything, Abrams is Cabinet level SOS, while Warren should be Veep.

Val Demings HUD SECRETARY, since Urban League needs AA females to run Housing and Affordable rent. Booker should be a great AG

Warren will be the smartest pick, her move to endorse Greenfield, was a power play, since Ds were skeptical about Greenfield and she has made Dems alot better about IA. 4 competetive seats and 3 D incumbents. That's why Greenfield is tied with Ernst, not 10 pts behind

Alot of these candidates like Abrams, Grisham, Val Demings and even Cory Booker for AG arent just being vetted for Veep, they are also being vetted for Cabinet positions

Biden and Warren
SOS Abrams
AG Cory Booker
Secretary of Ed ML GRISHAM
Urban League and HUD Val Demings

Again Val Demings doesnt have qualifications to be Veep

Klobuchar and Harris probably stay in Senate

Warren will be an excellent pick
Gretchen Whitmer already said she will be on Biden's transition team, but isnt leaving MI in a Pandemic

The Veep job isnt that important after campaigning for Prez, really, we have made almost a 100 pages about Veep speculation. Warren, Harris, Whitmer, Abrams or Val Demings. The only duty they do after campaigning is break ties in the Senate and negotiations in Senate if party in majority.  If their party is in minority,  then let Minority Leader take over in negotiations.

Then, they are asked to travel to China, Japan, Germany, Arabia, UK, all where NATO allies are and Turkey and Israel.

Amy Klobuchar did bad with AA voters due to Biden claiming all the AA support due to Clyburn support. Of course if Biden wasnt in the race, she would of gotten more support

It's obvious the Tara Reade allegations,  even if they weren't true, Biden were hitting on more than 1 women with the allegations were announced last April; consequently,  it has put a damper on Biden's Veep options and now Biden has to go with his plan B option,  Warren.

I doubt Harris takes it, she says she wants to stay in Senate

No, Biden is not going to pick someone like Abrams over a Senator or Governor or even a House member.

Whitmer isnt gonna be selected either

Warren is a disaster waiting to happen. I dont know why people think she would be a good running mate.

This is funny., because Betsy Sweet and Barb Bollier are 70ish and both are top contenders in the ME and KS Senate races

I dont support a Harris Veeps, Dems are acting like Harris is the only African American out there. If you lived in Cali, she has done zero for the African American community here. That's why she wasnt nominated for Prez

Abrams would do more for African Americans than Harris, she would keep the status quo like Obama did

Abrams would bring a shake up to the status quo more so than Harris, due to fact Harris has been a SF liberal not a Maxine Waters liberal. We have had enough Valerie Jarretts and Susan Rice in Dem WH. Harris will be another Susan Rice

Abrams should be definitely be picked, we dont need anymore Susan Rice picks, she can hold her own in a debate against Pence. Harris is definitely another Valerie Jarrett, but Warren doesnt have to be Veep, she can be a cabinet position as SOS. Biden must shake up the status quo. Many AA support Abrams not Warren or Harris, but unlike Harris, Warren is definitely SOS material. Just like Klobuchar,  whom is AG material and will prosecute Trump

But, Tender told me that Val Demings was the African American who was the one to be chosen to be the nominee for Veep.

Harris is another Valerie Jarrett and Susan Rice, she will be better than Pence, but by no means will shake up the status quo and put African Americans on board and CEOs of jobs that Bernie said needs to happen. That's why Harris hasnt dine much for the homeless in SF and LA in her own state of Cali

If Biden is gonna pick Harris, he might as well pick Warren, she is another Susan Rice or Valerie Jarrett that will keep the status quo.  Harris is gonna do the same as Warren which is about as much as Obama, keep middle class happy.

Yeah and we should put another Valerie Jarrett or Susan Rice as the Veep, Harris is about the same as Warren on every issue. She doesnt have strong ties to African Americans,  that why she wasnt nominated for Prez. I think that's why Biden havent selected his Veep yet, there isnt a dime's worth of differences between Harris and Warren, but looks

The problem with Harris is that we had Valarie Jarrett and Susan Rice already during the Obama administration.  He did enough to keep the status quo but didnt shake up DC like he needed to.  Biden is almost certain to get a SCOTUS pick and an African American woman is likely to be picked there.

There isnt a dime's worth of difference between Warren and Harris. I think Biden picks Warren
