  1. Biden will unite America and actually do something to help our country not divide or fail it. #BidenforAmerica

    1. Lmfao…he was the V.P under a black president and race relations got “worse?” (Biden is a swamp rat)

    2. bahahahahaha. biden will do nothing except enrich his family even further with tax dollar money.

  2. Joe Biden’s white house will look like America. Stark difference from the present white house.

    1. Trump has nominated a black man to be the FIRST black Chief of the Airforce, in U.S. history.

      The SENATE confirmed his position.

      Did CNN forget to tell you this?

    1. @DL DOWN Stacey Abrams doesn’t even hold Federal Office. Understood she should have been Governor, but unfortunately she’s only been a State Representative. Not enough experience and she has neo-conservative foreign policy tendencies. Bad choice at the present time.

    2. @Rubin4749 that’s not true. She does have the most all around experience with foreign policy, but Kamala, Demmings, Warren and Duckworth are just as qualified with their seats in Congress.

    3. @Weapon X Stacy Abrams? So? She knowledgeable. She had more experience than the President. Both are good for VP.

    4. @DL DOWN I’m telling you, the American public will not vote for Stacey Abrams or Kamala Harris – they are not going to do it. If the Dem Party wants Trump out, it has to be Susan Rice.

    1. Tanner Shortnacy “you people”? anyone ever called you racist? do ppl keep calling you racist? because you might be a little racist 🤷🏽‍♀️

      ijs 🖕🏽

    2. @rugby3230 They don’t just happen to be black, being a women of color was a major if not the top reason to be a consideration for VP.

    3. Neal P
      Why can’t they be both? We can’t he seek qualified representation of color? Neal, please, STFU.

  3. I wouldn’t be surprised if Trump tries to one-up Biden and announces that his new VP running mate is Harriet Tubman’s ghost. 😄

    1. Guess what, Mary?

      Trump nominated, and the Senate confirmed a black man, to be the FIRST, black Chief of the Airforce.

      You wanna look it up, or do you need a link.

      Your King Obama DIDN’T even do that.

      Did CNN forget to tell you that?

    1. He can’t there are precedure that he has to follow I wish it was as easy as I pick Rice or whomever.. there are interview back ground check and so on

    2. @Jannett Snow susan rice is actually NOT the right candidate.
      Republicans will go after her because of her last minute email story regarding general Flynn.

    1. @Can2274 Biden was going to launch his Presidential Run Stacey Abram as his VP. He was right the and he is right now. I suppose you also chose Tim Kain for Hillary VP?

    1. @hytr aaddxw3rs
      Oh, look! A mysterious link from an unknown source.
      I think I’ll click on it.
      Yeah, right!

  4. If he doesn’t choose a Black Woman he’s tone deaf and will lose. He owes his whole career to Black Women

    1. No, he doesn’t need to nominate a black woman to win. It would just be a gesture… tokenism. He should pick whoever is the absolute best choice, which in my opinion is Susan Rice.

    2. Someone’s got jungle fever .
      A north candidate the VP. Choice wouldn’t matter but being old Joe is 78 and has the initials stages of alzheimers disease it’s kind of important

  5. Let’s stop this please, I’m a hardcore Democrat but for God’s sake, choose a qualified candidate I don’t care what color or gender they are.

    1. The federal positions should be a filled by a racially diverse group of qualified candidates. The government should represent the racial diversity of America.

    2. If you’re a hardcore Democrat, you should know better. There are plenty of qualified black women in the running. Biden has never said he’ll pick an unqualified VP. But if your country has historically had 44/45 white presidents and you claim to be the “inclusive” party, then picking a black VP is the least you can do to represent a huge American community. Stop spreading Republican talking points.

    1. Biden couldn’t find his way out of a wet plastic bag.. He’s labouring to explain a vetting process.. awful

    1. Can you imagine?? That would be Awesome if Michelle Obama was VP. I don’t think she wants the position.

  6. Biden really limited himself in finding a VP. He should’ve left it open to various candidates. Warren or Duckworth could’ve been good choices. Or Viola Davis.
