(9,894 posts)In this election. It needs to be a woman, and it needs to be a progressive, not a centrist or conservative Dem. Age is less important in this election than it has ever been, but she does appear as a good 10-20 years younger than her age, and look at the competition, I mean really...dumb and dumber look ancient next to her. We should never pick our candidates solely from a laundry list of attributes anyway, but we should acknowledge the need of the times we are in. In this election, we need progressives to be excited, the way we were when Obama was our candidate.
Sen Harris, Sen Klobuchar, both are excellent Senators and would be awesome in several positions if they were asked and chose to serve in a Biden administration. Stacy Abrahms is a rising star, and needs to run for the Senate where she can gain experience and name recognition.
Disclaimer- I voted for Warren in the primary, and would have voted for her in the16 primary if she had run. I think she is an amazing woman and would make a great VPOTUS or POTUS.
primary today, I would vote for: Joe Biden
