Elizabeth Warren’s Drop Sparks Demand For ‘A woman Running Mate’ | The Beat With Ari Melber | MSNBC
Stacy Abrams!
D Victim Stacy Abrams? Victims can’t be winners
Fat Stupid racist cow, lol
The hulk
Biden names Abrams and also announces he will only seek one term.
I think it is safe to say that either Sanders or Biden will be picking a woman VP…..they have a huge selection of great women to choose from
Yes they do.
I want to see the Cabinet filled with women. Awesome, qualified, passionate women like Kamala Harris as Attorney General for example.
@Richard Darlington Except I enjoy seeing Kamala cross examine committee witness. She wouldn’t get to do that as AG.
Yeah, binders full of women!
@Richard DarlingtonHarris’ time as CA AG was full of problems, though. You should check the details on her record.
@CJ J
I can understand that.
But, we gotta have priorities.
You know how messed up the Justice Department is right now.
With Kamala Harris as AG, things would get straightened out right quick!
Now that Elizabeth Warren has dropped out of the race, Joe Biden has an opportunity to “unify the party” and end the primary contest. Warren and Bernie Sanders could arrange an agreement with Biden that if Biden announces that Warren is his VP choice, Bernie will drop out of the primary, making Biden the nominee. Warren will attract most of the Bernie Bros to support a Biden-Warren ticket and Donald Trump will get clobbered on November 3. The fatal mistake Hillary Clinton made in 2016 was to not pick Bernie as her VP, leaving an inconsolable riff between her and the Bernie Bros. Is Biden savvy enough to avoid making the same mistake? Probably not.
I am female but I will vote for the PERSON with the POLICIES that will help me and my family, not what genitalia they have.
Scott Baxendale when did y’all start with that terminology? You mean abortion- right?
RIGHT!!! Like wtf’
I agree. I really do not want Hillary BUT, there is way too much at stake…whatever else you do keep the House and Flip the Senate. And please do whatever needs to be done be by people who are the best we can find.
I think that is her point. Women are still fighting to be equal in this country. Still with the best intentions of these two men being in power for for over 30 yrs each neither have puts bills before Congress to close pay gap or to deal with child care or education. Men tend to go grand such as Medicare 4 all or dealing with foreign issues. In the meantime, smaller issues get put aside. So it not about genitals. It’s about experiences.
Lots of Russian trolls stirring up trouble in the youtube comments, as usual…
@12345 678 you must be for Trump from your commentary.
I think the new boomer thing is to assume anyone they disagree with is a Russian bot instead of actually considering what they’re saying.
And bernie bros too
@Jorge de la Selva i hate u too. I hate the evils of bernie bros
Yeah Larry anyone that disagrees with the progressive narrative is a Russian. Do us a favor, don’t breed.
I’ve always been a fan of Elizabeth Warren. She has always been an enemy of the swamp.
She’ll eventually become our president one day, and she’ll make a pretty good one too
David, Chief Honest Warren lost badly she lost her own state! She is over 70 years old!
Doubtful, people in her own state don’t like her.
shes in her 70s dude. this was her chance
Actually Klobuchar and Gillibrand have each passed more anti-corruption legislation than the other Senators. They are the anti-corruption queens, the biggest enemies of the Swamp.
Sad that a large portion of America is living in the 1950s. 👎
Sad that 2020 is much uglier. Americans used to be hard workers. Now they want everything for free. Cheers from Toronto
What is sad is that you hate men so much, the only reason you believe Warren isn’t the nominee is that men hate women.
Maybe, just MAYBE, people didn’t like her policies. But that couldn’t possibly be it, could it? That wouldn’t fit into your bubble, would it?
Ladies I am with you!, Americans, media abroad need to get behind this movement now!, fox networks aswell!, both aisles!!, join our sports industry!, NFL, NBA,etc
,
Just be patient and wait a few years for Katie Porter. She will be the one.
Good choice.
She is fantastic!
Always comes with receipts!
ARI: Hmmmmmm…
I swear these people live in a bubble.
Any one of those women would run the US 100 times better than the current conman in chief.
That’s setting a rather low bar, don’t you think?
Yeah there are a lot of woman who would be great presidents like Tulsi gabbard.any of these women you’re talking about these corporate sellout pieces of crap.let me tell you nobody has a problem voting for a woman who we have a problem buddy for a woman who does not stand up for the working class. This is not about what’s between your legs. It’s about what’s between your ears. Identity politics just separate people. Good policies bring people together Bernie Sanders Tulsi gabbard the real deal. Not these corporate sellouts.
BIDEN: COME ON MAN! I WAS THINKING HUNTER!
TROLL
@Deborah Freedman I AM WHAT I AM! ORANGE MAN GOOD, GREY MAN BAD!
Warren or Harris would be great VP,s and a LOCK for Dems winning everything Back.
No way is a corporate Democrat like Biden going to choose a progressive like Warren. Harris I could definitely see.
@Starry Dynamo why not?
VP for Pete Buttigieg … Warren as Secretary of Education
No, Pete would make a better Sec. of State, and it is the most powerful position in the cabinet. Imagine how well the State Dept. would run, with Pete at the helm. I think Amy should be VP. She’s intelligent, and she and Joe really seem to like each other. She could be Joe’s buddy, like Joe was Barack’s.
I would pay good money to see Warren, Abrams, Porter, or Harris in a VP debate with Pence. They would destroy him.
All that “fat broads and horse face lesbians” doesn’t destroy somebody
I don’t think he’d be able to debate them, since he can’t be alone on a debate stage around women. 🙂
lets wait and see when Joe announces his White House and his trusted secretaries
Do it! I’m tired of the sexism!
STACEY ABRAHMS
Way too progressive for Biden. I think Harris has a shot though. Abrams would be a perfect choice for Bernie (and would’ve been for Warren).
I feel like the top 5 best choices are women anyway. Hoping for Warren or Abrams, regardless of who the candidate is.
