Two key requirements for VP:

(a) owns a guillotine

(b) knows how to use it

JFK was elected to the Senate in 1952 and re-elected in 1958. When he gave up the Senate seat, a Kennedy family friend kept it warm for two years until Teddy was old enough to be elected in 1962.

Both Kennedy and Nixon were first elected to the House in the 1946 election. Kennedy made a point of that in 1960 because he was 4 years younger than Nixon (so that voters would be less likely to hold his age against him).

Just in the spirt of full disclosure.   I grew up in Rome, Georgia where Ron DeSantis spent his gap year between Yale and Harvard teaching at, Darlington School, an elitist private high school.   He didn't make a good impression then.   He came across as a narcissistic entitled Ivy League jerk.

As are most if not all Ivy Leaguers, but some people do grow up and change. Again not all but some do.

Anyone opposing Vance is in bed with the Republican establishment and globalist elite and shouldn't be trusted.

Vance is the natural successor to Trump in 2028.

Donald Trump Jr will be the VP.

Well, he is not eligible. His mother was not a U.S. citizen when he was born.

Trump's only child born to two U.S. citizens is Tiffany, and she's not 35 until 2028.

Give us proof, Nicky.

For what it’s worth:

https://www.allsides.com/news-source/daily-beast-media-bias#

“The Daily Beast Rated Left in May 2017 AllSides Blind Bias Survey, Editorial Review

Although The Daily Beast maintains that they are “independent,” their reporting has grown increasingly partisan. During the 2016 presidential election, AllSides started to note the shift, but waited to see if it was just a momentary phase. However, a year after the election of President Trump, the Daily Beast’s articles are still heavily biased.

The results of a May 2017 AllSides Blind Bias Survey placed The Daily Beast’s media bias as Left. We followed up on these results by conducting an Editorial Review. Our team found that the media bias of The Daily Beast’s articles, headlines and images all fall under the Left rating. “

As of July 2024, 31,098 people have voted on the AllSides Media Bias Rating for Daily Beast. On average, those who disagree with our rating think this source has a Lean Left bias.

As of February 2022, 14,002 AllSides readers agree that The Daily Beast has a Left media bias.

AllSides previously rated The Daily Beast as having a Center media bias; we moved The Daily Beast’s media bias rating to Left in January 2018.

The 12th Amendment is what’s wrong with the DeSantis.

“”””” Everybody was determined to hustle off the national stage those tired old WWII veterans and bring on the Age of Rock-N-Roll! “””””

JFK was the most celebrated WWII veteran of that election, the other 3 WWII veterans were over shadowed by his service, (by the media, not by real life).

No he is not at all what the establishment wants. They want Tim Scott or Marco Rubio who are tied in with the war machine. Vance is not an establishment guy at all. He hardly dislikes Midwesterners considering he is one.

I guess you are very young. He wrote a book trashing midwesterners as poor benighted folk, and he was feted by the jet set crowd for it. He said Trump is the American Hitler.
In the last moth he has defended abortion and minimum wage. He is the ultimate insider/establishment.
