Truman and Harris are not included. Harry Truman only was VP for a few months before becoming POTUS and Kamala Harris has only been in office for 3 months.

Also, vote based on their tenure as VP and NOT by what happened after they were Vice President.

You just base your own opinion based on one single action, and you do that with everything and it's so annoying. Your takes are absolutely horrible to the extent no-one should take you seriously.

Secondly, Biden wasn't VP when he pushed Clarence Thomas thru. While LBJ was president and not VP when he pushed Thurgood Marshall thru.

The question is still: who is the best Democratic Vice President in the past 90 years. You're not answering it.

Mondale, Wallace, and HHH in that order. Note that I am measuring them as Vice Presidents. All great but Mondale transformed the office and Wallace was a crucial partner in the fight against global fascism.

My personal preference of their entire careers is HHH, Mondale, Wallace, but all are great.

F—k I didn’t vote for myself, went with Biden too quickly.

Oh well. Might be true that Biden did more as VP than any of the others before him.

Wallace and Mondale are undoubtedly the best, for me they are tied first.

Obvious Wallace is obvious, and he should’ve been President too if not for that damned Truman.

Agreed. Well really it was the Dem machine. Imagine if he had been president. Big what if just like Kefauver, RFK, Jesse Jackson, Bernie Sanders.

Mondale as he made the modern Vice Presidency what it its. After him, it'd be Wallace, Gore, and Biden in that order. That ranking however is based solely on their Vice Presidencies, if it's based on their careers as a whole, Humphrey would be the best.

Glad horseshoe theory brings us together again in support of George Wallace.
