The Biden campaign and its allies are rallying around Vice President Harris, rejecting chatter that President Biden should reconsider his running mate heading into 2024.

A series of opinion columns published this week all suggested one way for Biden to juice enthusiasm among Democrats and quell concerns about his age heading into a second term would be to replace Harris on the ticket.

For President yes! For Vice President, I think not.

‘...replace Harris on the ticket.’

there’s no way on this green earth that Biden dumps Harris; what will likely happen is his resignation, citing ill health, and he’ll pass it off to Harris; whereupon Gavin Newsome comes swooping in to take the nomination...

I’m certain that’s what Biden and the dems are hoping for...

Brett Samuels you amuse me. The chatter isn’t about not having Harris be his running mate. The chatter is about Joe not running. What an idiot you are Brett Samuels.

Yes, and no. I mean, there are going to be people going to the polls in 2024 saying, ol' Joe isn't going to make it another four years, which means President Kamala.

On the other hand, keeping her blunts talk of him stepping aside. If he steps aside, then Kamala is the logical next one up. Going around her would alienate the black and women constituencies.

They are kind of painted in a corner.

Yeah right. If the Biden Puppeteers could come up with a viable replacement without losing control of the strings, they would be on it in seconds. That Harris has proved to be incapable and vacuous is no accident; that was their VP selection criteria.

I think the powers that be have decreed that, if Joe doesn’t make it to the nomination, she’s the only acceptable alternative to the borg. Hence Newsom’s recent disavowal of running. The masterminds behind the screen have absolute say on issues like this

The reason she’s there is because she’d be worse than Biden. So they’ve got to stick with her.

The only way to get a Dem Dream Team ticket is if the doddering fool Biden is gone——but only if Harris is gone before he leaves.

Interesting to see how they manipulate things now. The handlers will have to cover their tracks.

Charles Curtis as the first Vice-President of color was replaced and only served one term. Could be the conventional rule or curse as a person would have it. Being blessed with Red Tomahawk’s peace pipe is not the same as knowing what Hunter is smoking at any given time for sure.

They’ll be fine with Harris being replaced by Michelle in order to give Barry a third term.

To all here; does Biden (and I mean the people running him) have the final say on whether she is his vp come November 2024? Does she have any say at all or can he go “poof” and replace her on the ticket on a whim?
