Former Vice President Walter Mondale is endorsing Minnesota Rep. Keith Ellison to become the next Democratic National Committee chair.

The move gives the two top contenders to helm the party -- Ellison and former Labor Secretary Tom Perez -- one vice presidential endorsement each, after Joe Biden backed Perez earlier this week.

It comes as Democrats head to Detroit for their third of four "future forums" Saturday, where candidates for party leadership lay out their visions, before the DNC's 447 voting members select their new chair in a late-February meeting in Atlanta.

"Keith was a Minnesota star in the state legislature and now in the US House. Keith believes that we need to help all Americans succeed, and this message of inclusiveness is one that has resonated with people in the 5th Congressional District in Minnesota, who have re-elected Keith five times and who have turned out to vote in increasing numbers ever since Keith took office," Mondale said in a statement....

I second post #43. US Senator Paul Wellstone, wife Sheila, daughter Marcia, three others and two pilots died when an Aviation Charter Beech A100 stalled and crashed in a swamp short of the runway.

NTSB declared pilot error; should have executed a go-around after overshooting the approach.

“Keith believes that we need to help all Americans succeed”

That is the essential mistake the Democrats make, that they are so brilliant that we all need their help to get by. I find it condescending, as do most people. We don’t need their help, we need them to get the hell out of our way.

What has Keith Ellison done that would lead me to believe I need his help to succeed? Dumbass!
