Who should Joe Biden have picked as his running mate in 2020?

For the purposes of this exercise, assume Kamala Harris was rejected during vetting in favor of one of the other names on the list.

An underrated pick that he didn't consider but was firmly on his team is the former Labor Secretary Hilda Solis.

In terms of who would be the most feasible and useful to the campaign? Duckworth.

In terms of who I wanted? Elizabeth Warren, easily.

Of these options, I think Michelle would have been the strongest, but she's made it clear that she wants nothing to do with politics. So I would say Duckworth. Almost all the other options would have had serious liabilities.

I'm sure you mean without hindsight. Otherwise, she may be in trouble with the harassment story and the GOP for sure would make a big deal out of it to promote some kind of "male victimhood".

Does it really matter he still has Hunter Biden corruption, the wave insurence seats like in IA where Grassley chaired the Judiciary committee was lost in part due to Hunter Biden he hasn't been investigated by a Special Counsel

If Rs take the H next Nov, they will ask for one

I voted for Biden, but I never was a fan of his like I donated heavily to Obama and Hillary, I donate to Congress not Biden individually

Harris was the correct choice.

Out of the poll options, Klobuchar.  She was my first choice for President.

Harris was the right choice with hindsight and I had a feeling he was going to pick her. Karen Bass and Tammy Duckworth are the only two listed here that I don't think would've hurt the ticket.

Hot take: It wouldn’t have made much of a difference who he picked.
