Dallasfan, while maybe not as experienced overall as Purple State, is the most qualified in my mind. The most important job of the Vice President is to look over the Senate. Dallas has the most recent experience of anyone serving as the leader of a legislature, that being the Northeast Assembly, and when deciding on a running mate, that was a huge factor in me deciding to ask him.

Dallasfan may be your preferred choice, but let's at least be real here, his qualifications don't hold a candle to PS. Purple State was in the Mideast Assembly, the Senate, and worked with the Senate as President. "Recent" experience as doesn't mean "more."

Every Presidential candidate is obviously going to think their running mate is the most qualified, so I don’t understand why you are so insistent on arguing this, unless it’s just for the sake of arguing. Each candidate has a certain bias towards their candidate. Other candidates are just trying to be more respectful about it than you.

And while Dallasfan may not have quite the overall experience Purple State does, I think it’s important to note that he’s recently served in a position similar to the Vice President. I think it’s also important that fresh blood is brought into the White House.
