    I think Trump picked Vance for several reasons:

    1. He's good friends with Don, Jr. They have hunted and fished together in the past. His private nature is known.
    2. Politically, he's MAGA.
    3. His backstory is a classic American success story.
    4. The campaign has already said they are going to use him traditional blue-collar areas, along with some suburban campaigning. Think Pennsylvania, Minnesota, Wisconsin and Michigan.
    5. Vance is bright, but can be pugnacious when dealing with the press. I think Trump likes that.

      Did you see Don Junior talking to the press at the convention yesterday? He called them out on many of the lies that they propagated.

                        Interesting. Out on the deck having a discussion with my bride about the crime structure in Middletown when I was growing up and how it differed from today. I wonder how much Vance knows about it since it was before his time.

                            That’s now. When I was over there it was all mobbed due to the union up so nobody really got too out of line. Now it’s largely street gang related.

                                    Yes we're already long past the point of being educated that one does not have to be white to be a white supremacist. Mostly, in order not to be a white supremacist, you have to vote Democrat. It's a color-blind concept, except for that first word in "white supremacist". That's definitely a color. Other than that, color has nothing to do with it.
