(81,310 posts)We have an "embarrassment of riches" in this category. Several Senators, Congresswomen, Governors, state legislators and attorneys general. ALL capable, experienced, and qualified and ready to lead. VERY ready to be a heartbeat away from the presidency. VERY ready to step in and provide leadership. Heck, they're already qualified for the TOP job in their own right!
For Pete's Sake (or should that be For Petra's Sake?), women are MORE than 50% of the American population. And yet, we're the last democraphic to have gained the right to vote. Remember - when African-Americans got it, it was THE MEN among them who did. Their moms, wives, sisters, daughters, aunts, grannies, and girlfriends had to wait another 50 years.
We should be running things. Might have some better results than those with congenital tendencies toward
"Mine's Bigger" dick contests. Exhibit A: Does ANYONE believe Hillary would have so colossally fucked up the handling of the coronavirus, or ignored the problem for 70-some-odd days, or made excuses (the only "transparency" in this White House is how transparently lame-ass their many excuses are!), or made decisions that weaken the health-related infrastructure - supplies purloined and/or sent to wrong places, attempted defunding the W.H.O., trying to do away with the Affordable Care Act with ABSOLUTELY NOTHING ready with which to replace it? Heck, does ANYBODY believe ANY of the women thought to be on Biden's VP list would make any of those blunders? NOT listen to the experts and have them at the table at all times? NOT discount science - for ANY reason? Or have such a broken psyche or black heart that the interests of the greater good are forced to the back of the line so The Egotist-in-Chief can feed first?
My problem with all these potential female VPs is I can't decide who I like best! I really don't have a favorite. Each of them is a favorite!
