    Josh Shapiro would be the most logical choice. However, the Democratic Party playbook calls for the VP pick to be a senator, so my money would be on Sen. Mark Kelly. Since 1944, only Walter Mondale did not pick a senator because he wanted a woman on the ticket. McGovern's second choice Sargent Shriver was not a senator after Sen. Eagleton resigned from the ticket, and no other senator was willing to run with McGovern.

    Mark Kelly on your ticket is gold.

    Andy is amazing. The best debater up there and has real soccer dad energy. Just a really good guy.

    I have known Roy Cooper 40 years and he is squeaky clean honest. He is the kinda guy that waits his turn in line at the post office and doesn’t send his secretary if he missed the law firms final postal run. He buys his Christmas stamps for personal use and doesn’t run his personal stuff through the business meter. He stands inline to mail his Mother’s Day gifts personally. He got separate receipts for each client and his own stuff and used different cards from his own account. He was time consuming to wait on but the man keeps his records straight and above reproach, and was a pleasure to talk to. He would be a fine pick for VP. No dirt on that guy.

    NAVY SEAL Vet Pete Buttigieg is One of Best Choice 😊
  • @cschmitz100
    Please don’t waste a VP slot like Hillary did. I hope she’s chooses Josh Shapiro or Mark Kelly
  • @drums3269
    She should pick, Mark Kelly. The guy has an impeccable record, an American hero, and some Republicans like him.

    Make good choices Kamala, don’t be stupid like Donald and pick someone you can’t win with.
  • @milaalaniva775
    It is interesting how Pete Buttigieg is not on these lists. Too controversial still apparently. He did fabulously in the 2020 primaries.
  • @boogerlui
    Mark Kelly would be more appealing to moderates and voters but the problem is Shapiro is the one Dems need for PA, which could make or break the race.
  • @akiswid
    I hope she pick Kelly - all around safe bet
