I heard a rumor from intelligent people. Do you think Biden’s VP might be Michelle Obama? If so, who will be running the country again?

I heard a rumor from intelligent people. Do you think Biden’s VP might be Michelle Obama? If so, who will be running the country again? 1. He isn't picking Michelle Obama. 2. The idea that Michelle Obama is supremely qualified to be VPOTUS or POTUS and that we'd be lucky to have her is pathetic. Look, I have no serious issues with Michelle Obama as a First Lady. She did fine. I disagreed with a few things here and there, but generally, she handled the role fine. I would also have considered the idea of vaulting Laura Bush, Hillary Clinton, Barbara Bush, Nancy Reagan or any other FLOTUS directly from the position of First Lady to the vice presidency an exercise in absurdity. If Michelle Obama wants to run for the House, that wouldn't be a bad place for someone of her name recognition to get a start in politics on her own. But not the vice presidency. |

IMO, stop mail in voting for the general election. We need the absentee ballot for our military and others who cannot get back to their home state, but mail-in ballots are a different game. There aren't any restrictions on who gets them, no voter i.d., no proof of citizenship, and it will be too easy to corrupt the elections and never know the real results. It's a bad way to run a Republic.

Most people find a way to do something that they want to do. If they don't want to do it and it's not worth it to them, they won't find a way.

It's the mantra I learned the two or three seconds I voted democrat many years ago when I was young and foolish.

It's a bad way to run a Republic. I sincerely doubt that there are many folks who want to simply mass mail ballots without any registry, bar code, restriction or tracking system to ensure the vote is true and fair. In fact, I'd go so far as to say that is a straw-man or boogeyman concocted by the folks who want to disenfranchise voters. |

Can we also make the claim bonus politician wants to end capitalism. Or ban guns? |

Sounds like a bad claim. And it also sounds like the sort of whataboutery I have come to expect from you. |

The rumor that Michelle Obama would be selected as Biden's running mate sounds like yet another Trump The Skunk ploy to distract from his abysmal performance as president.
Nothing more.
Ignore the stench.

I'll just be happy that SOMEONE will be running the country.

Michelle would be a vast improvement over closet case Mike Pence, NTTAWWT.
But I very much doubt she's interested in the job, although I figure her name on the ballot would help the ticket.
More likely it will be Harris or Rice, or any of the other rumored contenders.

Yeah, you are right. Michelle will not be chosen. She would be the first black man instead of the first black woman if elected VP. |
