Michelle Obama will be drafted to run as the straw person for the 4th Obama Administration. Even with the fraud that will be committed, the dems cannot win without the black voting block. The dems’ problem is how and when to dump Joe. He’s going down hill quickly, and Kamala taking over is their worst nightmare.
I see the difficulty as how do the Dems announce that old slow joe is suddenly too sick to be on the ticket in November but just fine to remain in office every minute until then so Kamala cannot ascend to her rightful place, replacing him.
How do they steamroller over Kamala at that point and for the rest of the months up to the election after a Dem convention and Michelle Obama replacement? How can they make the case that Michelle is better qualified than the actual sitting VP?
When LBJ chose not to run in ‘68, was there immediate talk of replacing him at the head of the Fall ticket with his then VP, Hubert Humphrey? or were many names floated that would have bypassed Humphrey? I’m assuming the DNC has total power to pick and choose but they may face voter backlash if they choose too outrageously? Will they lose the African American bloc vote amount needed if they bypass Kamala with anyone who is not also at least partially black?
