You know what, if they were *all* in charge of things, they could come together in a meeting and crank out meaningful decisions in less time than it takes the current Administration staff to get our current idiot President to drop his phone and hobble to the meeting room.
While I like Duckworth, she was born in Thailand to a Thai mother (and an American father). And while that kind of foreign born/non-American parentage didn't seem to matter for Ted Cruz's political ambitions, the RWNJs had a field day with Obama being born in Hawai'i, which led to some Orange Shiatgibbon being elected president.
I don't know if I have a point other than, "I see where this would lead to."

She' s a US citizen by birth. Anybody trying to detract from that is doing the birther thing all over again and it's pure racism.

My response to the right wingers on this one would be a very hearty "go fark yourselves you deplorable racist farks"
Honestly though, I think they would retread the "why won't Tammy Duckworth" stand up for America line that they tried before

Are you putting any of that past the current GOP? She ticks off the "All the People We Hate" boxes for them: foreign, woman, minority, Democrat, and, now surprisingly, military.

Oh, and handicapped. I forgot that one.
She would just need to be a Lesbian Atheist and the sound of the right wing heads exploding would be heard on Mars.
I want Biden to not just announce his VP; I want him to announce that he is ready to hit the ground running and that he already has his cabinet picks lined up for every major position. Do that in contrast to Trump who still doesnt

You say that like its a problem for the GOP and scared white men they reach out to.
Whoever he picks will very likely be the first female president.
My money is on Harris, but any of those women is highly competent and qualified.
Also, no matter who it is, a bunch of people will criticize him because she's too moderate, too far left, pandering, shrill, low IQ (well just one guy will say that), too much of an insider, too unknown, much concern, concern, concern...
I would like Duckworth. She has achievements. She's sharp. And she'd bring out the worst in Trump. Let that hang around the GOP's necks and drown them.
I like Duckworth, but she has a problem with public speaking (See: Warren back when she started her political career). And though defeating Pence in a debate should be easy regardless of skills, I want someone that would make Pence cry and I don't know if Duckworth is that person.

Harris. I would like it to be Harris.
A fine choice in other years. I think that with an uprising against police and their enablers, she might be damaged by her stint as CA AG.
Whether that's fair or not is another matter, I just think it hurts her in 2020.
