Realistically it’s going to be Josh Shapiro, Roy Cooper, or Mark Kelly. Shapiro because he’d guarantee the Pennsylvania vote and tear anyone apart in a debate, Cooper because he’d secure the NC vote and probably boost the southern vote in general, and Kelly because his background is as American as possible, plus he’d get us Arizona. Tim Walz is another likely pick imo, partially because Minnesota vote and all, but he’s not as appealing in a campaign as many of the other choices.
Out of all of these, Shapiro seems like the strongest choice to me if he takes off his glasses. Cooper probably offers the most up-front and is exactly what Americans think of when they hear the words “vice president”, but Shapiro would probably perform the most impressively in public speaking & debates, and Kelly would probably give the best public image.
Beshear probably is the most progressive and has the best platform out of all of the likely candidates, but he’s made the critical mistake of being from Kentucky, which is definitely NOT a swing state, which means he doesn’t by default guarantee extra votes. The Democrats would have to run a very good campaign to utilize Beshear’s full potential, but considering all the finding pouring in I think it’d work out in their favor.
The Democrats will not put 2 women or 2 non-whites on the same ballot. It’s just not happening. The nominee will be a white guy. Raphael Warnock is unbelievable in his campaigning/charisma, but Americans are too racist for a Harris-Warnock ballot to be a viable option in terms of votes. Same goes for Harris-Whitmer.
If Newsom becomes the VP pick I’m going to yeet myself off a cliff…
Andy Beshear.
