I just don’t see how this could be accomplished either legally or in a manner the country will accept.
Thoughts?
I've seen other analysis saying that Obama has no intention of letting Kamala run. It may be that before Joe 'came out' with the DNC 'coup' to remove him, Obama planned to replace her at the convention. But Joe and others are fanning the winds of discontent over Biden's removal, so it might be too soon to then remove Kamala. The electorate should be angrier still if it became THAT obvious that Obama selects his presidential puppet without worrying about how the public responds. SO maybe Obama pressures Kamala to withdraw after the convention? Keep her quiet with blackmail, or money? Worse, maybe he 'fires' up the base by having 'something happen' to Kamala to give the Dems their martyr, blame it on Russia and or Trump? I do NOT want AMerica to descend to any more banana republic tactics. Prayers up for no more electoral violence (RIP Seth RIch).
So by 'allowing' Kamala to be chosen, Obama dons the veil of innocence, "What? Me? Oh you know I don't get involved in such things!"
Here's how Obama can (try to) remove a candidate after the convention selection process.
"If the Republican candidate dies or is incapacitated after the convention and before Election Day, the Republican National Committee (RNC) will meet to select a presidential candidate and/or vice-presidential candidate under Rule 9 of party rules.
Since every state has three RNC members and then some add-ons for Republican elected officials the states are not apportioned according to population — thus RNC members will cast the same number of votes as their state was entitled to cast at the convention and a new nominee will be selected by majority vote.
The Democratic National Committee (DNC) is also authorized to select the party’s nominee in the event that the winner of the convention cannot run. This is spelled out in the charter of the Democrat Party. However, since DNC members are awarded to states according to the size of the states, there would be no adjustments.
This has actually happened only once before. After the 1972 convention, revelations came out that George McGovern’s running mate Sen. Tom Eagleton, had been treated for mental illness. Eagleton was forced to resign from the ticket and McGovern chose Sargent Shriver as his replacement. But McGovern alone could not place Shriver on the ticket with him, it needed to be ratified by the full DNC. And so, on August 9, 1972, the DNC chair, Jean Westwood, called the national committee into session to officially nominate Shriver as McGovern’s running mate."
