Biden VP news megathread (pg 286 - been selected, announcement could be today)

[Comrade Funk]

One New Democrat picking another New Democrat as his running mate. No surprise.

Ok tell us, who do you think would be a good VP for Bernie?

[Comrade Funk]

Our resident theocrat faux-moderate voted for John Kerry in 2004. Truly absolves the reactionary bs he constantly spews.

[Comrade Funk]

Klobouchar is a much better candidate and person than Harris. But we know Joe will go with Harris bc Dem ID politics demands it.

Why is everything about race with you? What's your agenda?

[Comrade Funk]

Name recognition poll. No one knows who Duckworth, Demmings, CCM, or Whitmer (minus Michiganders) are.

These people never leave the DC bubble, and know jack sh**t how people think outside the beltway.

[Comrade Funk]

Being part of the urban woke left.
Having an overly combative personality that is not terribly likable.
A SF socialite with a story that is not even close to Duckworth or Demings in terms of appeal.

So many dog whistles

[Comrade Funk]

Okay so if you're high enough in the campaign where you know the identity of the VP pick, you don't reveal these things to a discord server. That's the type of thing that could get you fired. The Kerry campaign made four different campaign posters (Edwards, Gephardt, Graham, Vilsack) to prevent any leak from occurring. I'm in the same discord server as TSA, but the source, while reputable, does troll from time to time. I doubt he's risking a leak just to tell his discord buddies.

The dialogue in this thread is comparable to some of the arguments my sister and her friends had in regards to the Backstreet Boys and *NSYNC. At least one could see why a twelve year old girl might 'stan' Nick Carter or Justin Timberlake.
