Joe Biden wants vice-president who won’t outshine him

A veteran congresswoman with a strong personal bond with Joe Biden is rising fast in the race to become his running mate for #November’s election as more polls gave the Democrat challenger a healthy lead over President #Donald Trump.
Karen Bass, a former speaker of the California state assembly who was elected to congress 10 years ago, is seen as an emerging prospect partly because she has indicated that she would not use the role of vice-president as a springboard to the White House.
At the age of 66 but with a low media profile, she offers Mr Biden a stark contrast to better-known names under consideration, including senators Elizabeth Warren, 71, and Kamala Harris, 55, a fellow Californian, both of whom ran for the presidential nomination.

Mr Biden, 77, announced that he would choose a female running mate and there has been pressure in the party for him to pick a black woman given the protests over #racial injustice after the death of George Floyd. There is also a #belief that Mr Biden would be a one-term president, putting his vice-president in pole position for a run for the White House in 2024 and making his choice of running mate even more significant than usual.
Ms Bass, who is divorced, told The Atlantic that she “cannot envision” running for president in 2024 or 2028.
The head of the Congressional Black Caucus, she has a close #affinity with Mr Biden through personal loss — she spoke at an event with him about her struggle to come to terms with the death of her only daughter and son-in-law in a car crash. The former vice-president lost his first wife and one-year-old daughter in a car #accident in 1972.

“We both just shared that you learn how to get up in the morning,” she told The Atlantic.
“You learn how to live, but your life is fundamentally changed, dramatically changed.”
Campaign advisers believe that Ms Bass has other qualities that might be attractive to Democratic and general voters alike, as well as Mr Biden.
Her low profile means there is no danger of her overshadowing the candidate, unlike some of the frontrunners, while she is seen as expert at reaching consensus with Republicans, counting Kevin #McCarthy, the minority House leader, among her friends from their days making political deals in California. This could make her a less divisive figure to floating voters than other potential choices.
At the same time she has pulled off the trick of satisfying both the moderate and radical wings of the Democratic party. Ilhan Omar, 37, a Somali-born congresswoman demonised by Republicans, has called her “a dear friend”.
Other rival black female candidates include Susan Rice, 55, a former UN ambassador and national security adviser to president Barack Obama; Val Demings, 63, a Florida congresswoman and former police chief; and Keisha Lance Bottoms, 50, the mayor of Atlanta.
James Clyburn, 80, the senior black congressman from South Carolina who was instrumental in Mr Biden seizing the nomination when he backed him to win the state primary, has said that Ms Bass has three big things in her favour: her “legislative acumen” honed passing laws in California and the House; the fact that she “is no stranger to foreign affairs”; and “the biggest thing of all”, that Mr Biden would not need to worry about her “one-upping him” because “she has no aspirations” to become president.
Two polls on Monday put Mr Biden in a strong lead over Mr Trump. Fox News put Mr Biden on 49 per cent and Mr Trump on 41 per cent, and ABC/Washington Post had Mr Biden up by 54 to 44 per cent among probable voters.
The fact that there's a highway to hell and a stairway to heaven says a lot about the anticipated traffic flow.
Trump v Biden, this sums it up nicely:
Maybe they should just turn the white house into an age care facility.

BAhhhhh hahasha .......thanks enf.............dont need to look @ the jokes section now !!
The article must have been lifted from cnn of the washingclothes post demoncrat propaganda organs
Polls are just as bad as fake 'news'
Well it's decided then! They predicted Hitlary all along at the last election and look how it turned out!Two polls on Monday put Mr Biden in a strong lead over Mr Trump. Fox News put Mr Biden on 49 per cent and Mr Trump on 41 per cent, and ABC/Washington Post had Mr Biden up by 54 to 44 per cent among probable voters.
Oh, no, hang on..... Ummmmmmmm
Well if you reverse what they predict, they are spot on every time. You just need to understand how to interpret the information the right way.
Backwards.
As I keep saying, as long as the polls have Biden in front, Trump has nothing to worry about.
Confirmation they are not interested in the best person to lead Their party or the country, rather one that that appeases the lefty PC nutters like Black Bullshit matters and fits their demented narrative.Mr Biden, 77, announced that he would choose a female running mate and there has been pressure in the party for him to pick a black woman given the protests over #racial injustice after the death of George Floyd. There is also a #belief that Mr Biden would be a one-term president, putting his vice-president in pole position for a run for the White House in 2024 and making his choice of running mate even more significant than usual.

You couldn't hate Trump enough to warrant a Vote for Biden.
You would have to hate your country, way of life, Freedoms and their entire culture.
Hillary Clinton is ‘plotting a comeback’ to usurp ‘senile Joe Biden’
I don't think so.
That story is about a month old and we haven't heard anything from her since.
They only have a few weeks left do change anything before ratification.
Biden will go ahead, the big question is how long will he last IF he gets elected.
Trump will have a comeback in polls as somebody has finally managed to convince him to change his tone in regards to the Virus.
He is now sticking to the script like a good school boy.

I don't think she ever left the presidential race at least in her mind. I think the " Plotting a Comeback" started the day after she lost the last election.
I think she is evil and dangerous but I don't think she is stupid. She probably had it all planned out in her mind how she was going to do it and time it.
Maybe she knew she couldn't win it on her own but she did have a better chance if she came in the back Door as the VP and then the Pres had to " abdicate" at some time and she would be able to take over the big chair that way.
Geriatric Joe must be as ideal for her aspirations is he is for Trump's.
Yeah, Typical.
He goes against the narrative of the whining social and main stream Media twits and they put endless shit on him. He turns around and does what they wanted him to do and they still put shit on him.
Can't win either way because these whingers will never be satisfied and are just looking for something to sook about.
They change their position far more than I bet they change their underwear.
It's not just with Trump either. The lefties will whinge about anyone they don't like no matter what they do.

She apparently had plastic surgery and for a reason I reckon...maybe she just wanted to look more like an intern for Bill....
The fact that there's a highway to hell and a stairway to heaven says a lot about the anticipated traffic flow.
The American Voters must be very forgiving. I would have thought the stigma of being married to Blow Job Bill would have been enough to put them off hitlary alone.
Different if she divorced him but that was never even mentioned. Money compensates for a lot I suppose.
I'll Bet billy well be kept WELL in the background if she does make a run for the Oval office.
Forgiving - that's not the adjective I would have used.
I was going to pick a different adjective as an example from a very very long list but I just cannot seem to find one that is not completely overshadowed by reality.
Yes I am an agent of Satan, but my duties are largely ceremonial.
Joe Biden picks Kamala Harris as his running mate in historic first for a woman of color.
“I have the great honor to announce that I’ve picked Kamala Harris – a fearless fighter for the little guy, and one of the country’s finest public servants – as my running mate,”
In a tweet, Harris said she was “honored” to join Biden on the Democratic ticket and pledged to “do what it takes to make him our Commander-in-Chief”.
If Biden wins on November 3, Harris would become the first female vice-president in US history. Just two women - Democrat Geraldine Ferraro in 1984 and Republican Sarah Palin in 2008 - have previously been on the ballot as US vice-presidential candidates.
I have $10,000 that says he won't.
Wait, let me me be specific on that....
He won't become president fairly and honestly..... like in that does not count if they tamper the postal votes which is almost guaranteed or they pull some other typical and predictable Shitfluckery the same as they have all along since the last election.
The only way Biden could fairly and honestly win the election is with the help of the 2nd coming and Jesus Christ himself went as his running mate.
Then the obvious bait and switch ploy may work to his and the Demorats favour.

Man...I can't compete with that amount of cash, I'm married with children.. LOL Ok, Trump is going get a second term. You win!
IF votes can REALLY be tampered with in the USA then I bet my bottom dollar (I only have one hidden away, same married with children) Trump the deception master and his team will make sure it will go in their favour.
And to make that win certain the Republicans will also achieve it with gerrymandering. They did not win the popular vote last time but this time it will be a lot easier for them.
So they can publish all the polls they like, they are meaningless.
I also have a gut instinct that many Trump followers don't participate in those polls as:
1. They don't understand them.
2. Provided by the media, which Trump told them is all fake.

Trump Vs Biden....ha ha ha ah Was not aware there was a contest. Joe the pedo Biden has not come out of his basement for the last three months while President Trump rewrites American history with a work ethic never seen before in any American presidency. Before writing Trump off as a fool with your 15 seconds of research go and have a good look at what this great man has actually accomplished in his 3 1/2 years in office. Also take into account he has accomplished all this despite the punishing bullshit allegations and ongoing legal fiasco's which is the only thing the past 4 Democrat establishment parties (Bush, Clinton, Obama, Biden) have concentrated on. My prediction of the future will see Trump elevated to American icon statesman up there with Lincoln Washington and JFK.
