    I mean, this isn’t an awful idea…

    The real world logistics probably make this more complicated than implied, but I don’t mind the intent.

      It’s not a good idea because Kamala is pretty unpopular.

      She comes off as out of touch and condescending, just like another certain candidate that lost to Trump in 2016.

        I agree, she’s not the candidate I’d want leading the dems—far from it. But people are used to voting between a Giant Douche and a Turd Sandwich as their president. Biden is something different, more agreeable than some other candidates the Dems have run. But people are seriously concerned about voting for a man who’s mental acuity is declining rapidly towards senility and very possibly will not live through 2028.

        Plus, I haven’t read too far into it but I’ve heard that only Kamala would be able to use the Biden/Harris campaign war-chest. It’s sad as hell that that is so important, but it is nonetheless.
