If they're smart they'll tap AOC or Bernie for VP.
Instant party unity with zero effort.
Makes too much sense so won't happen.
Historical precedent says you're right.
Normally I love being right....booo
Sanders gets us back to the "too old" and has the added benefit of him being historically horrible at condemning atrocities by "Communist" countries.
And AOC is too young. And also a she is of color
I don't think anyone cares if the VP is "too old" honestly. Most of the time it feels like the VP does things in the background and makes far less headlines. Case in point: Kamala Harris
Dayum. Here for this.
I dunno, they need to give something to centrists and independents to win. Kamala's base is all totally united against trump already I think.
