Valerie Jarrett: Dem Candidate Should Choose ‘Running Mate That’s A Woman Of Color’

Former President Barack Obama senior advisor Valerie Jarrett on Tuesday urged whichever 2020 Democratic presidential candidate emerges as the leader after the conclusion of Super Tuesday to “break with conventional wisdom and announce a running mate that’s a woman of color,” especially if it is Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-VT), former Vice President Joe Biden or former New York City Mayor Michael Bloomberg.

Jarrett explained on CBS’s “This Morning” that “these are not normal times” and argued having a woman of color “would send an important signal” heading into the next round of primaries.

“I think that whoever emerges tonight, particularly if it’s Bernie Sanders, if it’s Vice President Biden or even if it’s Mayor Bloomberg, what I would do is break with conventional wisdom and announce a running mate that’s a woman of color,” Jarrett stated before being cut off.

“Tonight?” asked host Gayle King.

“No, not tonight,” Jarrett replied. “Certainly before the next primary. Woman, person of color, someone who reflects the diversity of our party.

So if a black woman gets the nomination, for example Michael, she should get a running mate who is also a woman of color?

That sounds like a winning ticket.

Solely because of skin color and breasts and a vagina.

Winning combo there, how can this not work out well?

Don’t ask too many questions, ladyjane.

Try to behave like the moderators. For instance, “if a woman was nominated, would she have to choose a gay guy as her VP?”

The protocol never ends.

Is Mrs. Hankey available.

That would be a good running mate for a democrat

I don’t think Michelle Obama wants to do anything that resembles work. Michelle has her mansion, lots of money, the girls are grown....she wants to hang out with the beautiful people and go shopping and travel.

Stacey Abrams is the perfect running mate. That way ol Joe will always have a parking space.
