    Dick Cheney did quite a number.

    You've got a heavy lift ahead of you now. Best of luck with that line.

    Was she selected as VP because of her performance in the primary, job performance in CA or because her race and gender? There were better quailed VP candidates imo, but I understand for VP selections it's more about incremental votes they can bring in. Kennedy couldn't stand Johnson and didnt want him on the ticket, he was convinced or pressured to go LBJ as he helped the southern vote.

    I don’t remember making this claim, so I don’t feel the need to defend it.

    That's really the only answer that matters right now.

    We have things that need to be fixed. But the most present danger to America right now is Donald Effing Trump.

    And she's still far superior to Trump.

    That was probably the last time a VP pick ever made a positive difference. Nowadays it's more about who will hurt you the least.

    But not to Biden (somehow) and that is really all that should matter to democrat voters. But instead you guys are too focused on Trump to actually choose a candidate that can beat Trump. It’s like a vicious cycle of failure where you refuse to take off your ‘spooky Trump goggles’ long enough to actually demand something meaningful from your party.

    you act like Kamala has no experience, but at the same time support a guy who was voted president who had even less experience.

    And they are exactly what they claim you are.
    Pedophile? Felon? No political experience? Old? Divisive? Bigot?

    He was president for four years. So yes, he has more experience. What’s interesting though is I never brought up Trump. And i didn’t make that claim in 2016 before he had been president.

    During Republican primary, even after Trump clinched nomination, Nikki Haley got 15-20% of the vote. People voted for her knowing she wouldn't win nomination.
    At RNC, Haley asked all her delegates to vote for Trump.
    How is that OK but Biden asking his delegates to vote for his VP undemocratic?

    One thing lost in all this talk is we will never have to hear Let's Go Brandon again.

    Did you vote for him 8 years ago when he didn't have any experience?

    Before he was president. What experience did he have? You want to say Kamala has no experience, so tell me about all the experience Trump had before you voted for him the first time since that seems to be such a big deal to you.

    What was his accomplishment? 9/11? Using 9/11 to send troops to Iraq and steal oil? Great accomplishments.

    I never brought up experience though, you guys did, and are now pinning on me as if it were the crux of some argument i was making. You are trying to debunk a claim I didn’t even make.
