    As a rule I hate it when candidates chose their Veeps early. The convention is the appropriate place for that because it should be in consultation with the party. It's the nominee's final choice, but beforehand everybody should have their say so there are no nasty surprises afterwards.

    My Veep picks for beating Dump:

    Biden. Best: Castro. Worst: a white guy
    Warren. Best: Buttigieg. Worst: Sanders
    Sanders. Best: Harris. Worst: Warren
    Buttigieg. Best: Abrams. Worst: a white guy
    Quite a contrast. Most Ds would like to see a woman on the ticket or at least someone who is not white and male. The Rs, meanwhile, have an old white male in the Oval who boasts that he grabs women by the puzzy and an old white male VP who refuses to be alone in a room with a woman.

      It’s only one poll but Mayor Pete seems to be slowly gaining traction...

      Up by 10 points over Biden and Warren in New Hampshire:

        Sanders and Warren won't run together. They are both Democratic senators in states that have GOP governors (although VT is up for election) with a senate that might be 50-50 after November. If both were on a winning ticket any chance of a Democratic majority in the senate is gone. That also means neither can take a cabinet position if the other wins the White House.

        I still think Andrew Gillum would be the perfect VP candidate for any of them.

          Gillum is a great VP pick.

            Your conclusion you repeatedly cite as fact.

              Yeah, but that’s a stupid way to do a poll unless you have some serious understanding of how the process works.

              IIRC, there are something like half the delegates awarded by district, another quarter proportionally by statewide returns, an eighth of pledged delegates, and an eighth unpledged who don’t matter unless we go to a second ballot. South Carolina has something like 60 delegates.

              You’d have to be polling at I suppose under 7% to miss all proportional. But then there’s the district-awarded delegates. That’s way to complex to say he’d get none. Or any candidate I suppose.

              Edit note: the numbers above are extremely rough. It’s far more complicated on how the delegate ratios actually work.
              Code:
              As of 9/21/10:         As of 9/13/10:

                If there's one thing I've learned from hanging around here for over a decade, and from occasionally wading into the "woke" Twitter hashtag swamp the last few years, it's to avoid taking any one post, or its poster, too seriously. That is, unless said poster demonstrates an obvious pattern of being sick in the head (Flag).

                So lighten up, Francis. Internets are not serious bizness.

                      Bernie is being repeatedly personally attacked here?

                        My mistake. Referring to him as "BernGod" is really just a term of affection.

                          That's a knock on his sycophants not Bernie.

                              He's calling it out the way the current GOP would. Basically - don't be caught unawares.
