Yup, she’s positioning for VP.
Not sure it’s related at all, but a friend of mine who works for Pence is departing their position today. Might have some inside knowledge of a VP swap coming?

I think she's great. I wish she was a POC, but she'll do.

She’s a personal of color more than half-White Obama, actually. She was born to two Indian parents. Her birth name is Nimrata Nikki Randhawa.

Person of Color increasingly refers to degree of marginalization although it leaves out many religions, many genders and many sexual orientations.
Who’s turn it is first to be VP to undo the sins of our history is an interesting question.

Obvious decision is obvious.
Maybe he’s just slow to see the obvious.
Just like colleges and businesses are making real time decsisions to re-open. A bunch of corporations this week just said no office openings until at least 1/1. More to come. Watch the colleges and schools go on line too.
It’s not like the convention was anywhere near the last hold out, but hey would would anyone make the connection when they didn’t want to.

Atlanta is deciding on how many fans? Current numbers range from 20,000 to only 10,000.

Skin color is the most important thing right now. But an interesting new gender would help.

Yeah, we really do need a timeline of sorts.
I remember when we were all going to die because of muslims, or terrorists. Something like that, I forget. And, things were getting blown up and such, so that rights had to be taken away for our own benefit. Wait, no, that's now due to Covid, and how it spreads mostly in churches but not at protests. Something like that, I forget.
Seems to me, we should just get it over with. Make all white males guilty without exception, past, present, and future. Except for Marty McFly's dad, also known as the mayor of Portland, also known as Ted Wheeler. He's OK. He's one of us, or one of them.
Ax, help me out here. Is a white male far-left mayor one of us, or one of them?
