Pat Buchanan:
Susan Rice is the name they have been really trumpeting the past few days in papers like the Washington "Amazon" Post. It all depends on how much influence Biden chooses to welcome in his presidency from the Obama camp. She was the one who was trotted out by Obama to lie about Benghazi. And she was the one who got revenge against Flynn by unmasking him. Recall Flynn headed the DIA when that report was written which made clear Obama understood his decision to support the overthrow of Assad would lead to the the creation of what became ISIS. Flynn also played a role in revealing that the attack on Benghazi was done by al-Qaeda in commemoration of 9/11. Obama of course covered this all up to hide the fact he was supporting al-Qaeda linked terrorists in Syria and Libya, a fact that would have and should have politically ruined him.
Kamala Harris is the other choice making noise, but she was very hard on Biden in the primaries and her lack of reticence on that may prove a killer blow to her chances. She also fought hard against a Supreme Court ruling, to reduce the prison population, by keeping nonviolent criminal offenders in jail. She is said to have slept her way to the top. She's another one of those lovely characters who populate the world of politics who would sell her soul if she could for a place at the big people's table. Unfortunately for her she can't as that would require having a soul in the first place.
*Bass* and Duckworth are wholly inexperienced and have too little clout in Washington. *Bass* is a communist idiot who has come to rule the roost in the Black Caucus. Duckworth should be running a street corner kiosk, not a congressional office--let alone the second highest political office in the world.
Many seem to have written off Liz Warren solely because she is white, but there was certainly some sort of deal cut during the primaries to help Biden torpedo Sanders on Super Tuesday. She would definitely get some kind of senior posting in the Biden administration. I half like her only because she scares the shit out of many of the top Democratic donors, but she's such a sell out that I think she would roll over for them if means getting to sit on the lap of power.
of our four dozen vice presidents, all of whom have been white men, nine have risen to the nation’s highest office to fill out a term of the president who selected him.
In the aftermath of the George Floyd killing and protests, pressure has grown on Biden not only to choose a woman but a woman of color, and preferably a Black woman. If that were a criterion, it would eliminate all but a tiny few of the party’s senators and governors.
What national interest impelled Biden to so restrict the pool of talent from which a possible presidential successor would be chosen?
Joe Biden would be the oldest man ever to serve as president. He would enter office with visibly diminished mental capacities. And he has decided to restrict his choice as to who should inherit our highest office by ruling out the vast majority of the most able and experienced leaders of his own Democratic Party.
Is this any way to select someone who could, in a heartbeat, take control of the destiny of the world’s most powerful nation?
