Biden’s best vice-president pick is obvious (Tammy Duckworth)
NYT ^ | June 28, 2020 | Frank Bruni, New York Times

Posted on 06/28/2020 4:29:19 PM PDT by Fawn

Whatever his wobbles, Joe Biden has, from the start of his presidential campaign, got one thing exactly right: The 2020 election is a battle for the soul of America. That’s not just a pretty slogan. It’s the stomach-knotting truth — and it’s the frame he should use for choosing his running mate. It’s why he should pick Senator Tammy Duckworth of Illinois. She’s a paragon of the values that Donald Trump, for all his practice as a performer, can’t even pantomime. She’s best described by words that are musty relics in his venal and vainglorious circle: “sacrifice,” “honour,” “humility.” More than any of the many extraordinary women on Biden’s list of potential vice-presidential nominees, she’s the anti-Trump, the antidote to the ugliness he revels in and the cynicism he stokes.

She isn't a Natural born citizen....can she become President if Biden bows out? [Tammy Duckworth was born in Bangkok, Thailand, the daughter of Lamai Sompornpairin and Franklin Duckworth.]

Okay, time to lose a bunch of House seats in districts with sizable minority populations, ‘cause that is what will happen if a white woman instead of a “person of color” gets the VP slot.

Oh that stuff don't matter no more. Ask the Democrats.

After all, the god of this world sent his begotten son...according to the Democrats. Of course the Democrats confuse the god of this world with the Real God.

So the NYT is giving up on a Black woman for the VP slot.

It’s going to be The ignorant slut, Harris. Soros picked her a long time ago.

I think Hunter should turn Tranny, get epidermal melanin injections and run as his daddy’s black woman VP, that way they get two corrupt Bidens and make the LGBTQ and the dark skinned factions happy all at the same time.

I always thought Warren would take VP....but Harris was such a great b**** during the impeachment, it enhanced her image with the Dems.

Tammy could indeed be a gamechanger, if, that is, Joe Biden really becomes their nominee. Tammy has presence without most of the hysteria common in today’s Dem women. If she is the VP nominee, Pence better refresh and rehearse his basic talking points.She’s going to try to define the Trump presidency in her personal terms if her opponent allows her to.

We call her Tammy Dumbworth - even though she claims to have a PHD from some on line college. She can barely read a scripted statement. She won her Congressional race by a fluke of re-districting.

in 2018 she ran against Mark Kirk who was abandoned by the State GOP. Dumbworth could be challenged in 2024 by both Dems in the Primary and a Republican in the General.

Non starter. Not because of NBC status. BO skated right past that one.

But because she is the wrong color.

Notice who wrote this.

I'd take Tammy Bruce over Tammy Duckworth...not that I would vote for Biden under any circumstances.

I get here and the idiot from Hawaii confused all the time.

Someone from Thailand won’t be President of the US. A Kenyon from Indonesia, sure, but we draw the line at Thailand.

Hope so, because #Karamela will be Biden's long goodbye...

it’s going to be susan rice, mark my words. she will continue obama’s reign of terror on America because biden won’t be lucid enough to know what day it is, as demonstrated by when he was ranting about the cold war when he had that live stream with the obamanation the other day.
