Where Harris’s Potential Running Mates Stand on Climate: Possible contenders to join the Harris ticket include three governors who welcome clean energy and a senator concerned by extreme heat
I would love Andy Beshear to be the VP. He handled the Covid pandemic awesomely in KY and has been doing a lot of things for greener energy / extreme weather responses. Also, he values education and universal preschool. The only thing I fear is that if he does become VP, KY is going to choose a conservative governor that undoes all he has done.
I understand your point, and I know that you’re not just limiting yourself to governors, but a lot of politicians with name recognition are assholes (I’m looking at you, Texas and Florida).
Yes ofc, but the other 3? It’s standard status quo for the last 50yrs, VPs with little to no name recognition. Like anyone knew who Hillary’s running mate was.
But sure, Mark Kelly. I still think the power couple ticket is Whitmer on the other half. But that’s probably too much progress for the so called progressive party.
Blast it, get Buttigeig or Whitmer on there. Then the excitement for the ticket will double.
