Biden Would ‘Consider’ Harris for His Administration, Including Vice President
A pitch to win California? Sanders leads in the latest polls, but Biden is a close second.
Former Vice President Joe Biden said a month ago he would consider Sen. Kamala Harris (D-CA) as his running mate.
Biden repeated his thoughts this week in his first official California interview but broadened Harris’s options.
On The Bee’s California Nation podcast, Biden told The Sacramento Bee he finds Harris “qualified to be president.”
He claimed he “would consider her for anything that she would be interested in:”
Q: What positions would you consider (California Sen. Kamala Harris) for under your presidency?
A: Anything she’d be interested in.
Q: Including vice president?
A: She’s qualified to be president, and I’d consider her for anything that she would be interested in.
Biden and Harris clashed in the debates before she dropped out in December.
Despite the fights, most supporters of Harris have endorsed Biden. He now has support from 40 supporters from California.
It is not a shock to me that he went farther than the vice president role for Harris. He basically said she could choose how to serve in his administration.
Biden has massive support from people in California, but a new poll shows that Vermont Sen. Bernie Sanders has moved to the top.
The Public Policy Institute of California found that 27% of likely Democratic primary voters chose Sanders.
Biden landed in second at 24% and Massachusetts Sen. Elizabeth Warren in third at 23%.
The race for California is between those three due to a massive dropoff: 6% for former South Bend Mayor Buttigieg, 4% for Minnesota Sen. Amy Klobuchar, and 3% for entrepreneur Andrew Yang.
Only 7% of the respondents said they do not know who they support.
However, while Sanders leads the poll, 46% of the likely voters believe Biden has the best chance to defeat President Donald Trump. Only 25% believe in Sanders.

You never pick a VP from a group that wouldn’t think twice about putting you in the ground.
Joe needs to carefully ponder
1. number of blacks in America
2. number of illegals in America
and choose wisely. He might choose as VP that illegal female who has a high level state job in CA.
From my exposure to both blacks and Hispanics, I have found that Hispanics have both better work ethics and are marginally smarter. Hispanics for the most part do not have that entitlement chip on their shoulders.
With these traits in mind, I suspect that Hispanics will have little tolerance or sympathy for affirmative action and other handouts for blacks, especially as their numbers increase.
Black turnout was low for Hillary and Trump has made some inroads into this voter block in the last 3 years. However, he hasn’t moved the needle much with Hispanics. So I think it’s most likely that an African-American gets picked for the VP slot, no matter who is on the top of the ticket.
And the decree went forth to all the lands throughout and to all the peoples therein,
“SUBJECTS, LET THE PANDERING CONTINUE, AND MAY THE ODDS BE EVER IN YOUR FAVOR!”
Two losers in waiting.
Stacey Abrams will not be happy to hear this.
Stacey is not limber enough to get into some of positions Karmela likes. Or so says Willie Brown.
Stacey also prefers girls ….. [she HAS a girlfriend].
Joe’s just angling for a blowjob.
Next up: Biden carefully explains why his choice of VP might be particularly important, should he be elected. And perhaps why the 26th Amendment might also become particularly relevant in a Biden presidency.
Tell us all about it, Joe!
Is Sarah available for comment? Hell, you know she’d do it!
Great. An addled fool and a dullard.
Which is which?
A Biden/Harris ticket?
Trump’s campaign ads would write themselves.
Not a smart move. California hates Kamala Harris.
#MeToo #HerToo #SheProgressed #JoeToo
Too many joke possibilities here. Must move on, quickly.
Her polling was terrible, her fund raising was terrible, how would this translate into a great VP?
She had worse numbers than Spartacus. As far as wanting a female to run with Spartacus would just about fit that role. So, what does she have on him to make him think this is a good move? Her polling in almost every demographic was meh.
I just don’t get this idea of his.
Her family were slaveholders for crying out loud. If you’re gonna play by the Woke Scold Rules you can’t have that!
Biden may agree to serve a single term or die in office in order to attract voters who are eager to see a black female president.
And yes, I do see what I did there. 😉
Not even black women like Harris. If black women liked Kamala she would have polled 10%. At least
Just to make sure I took a poll. Black women don’t like her.
But at least one likes me. I have a date with an Air Force chick. Hi
Makes sense.
Almost all women are Dead Set Against HOME-WRECKING, HUSBAND/BOYFRIEND Stealing……..fill in the blank.
I think she is desperate. That is my only explanation for why she gives me the time of day. Something about being stationed in Minot, North Dakota.
You just never know. All I did was say hello and now I am in a relationship.
And I don’t mind.
She had no support as a candidate for president because Democrats didn’t want her as president. Why on earth would anyone vote for someone (much less an old guy) who thinks she would be a good choice in case someone happens to him?
The saying is, birds of a feather flock together. Or, in Biden’s case, one loser picking another loser.
If Obama could pick Biden who was previously condescending to him, why can’t Biden pick Harris who savaged him?
Will he pick Hunter for Department of Energy?
Biden Would ‘Consider’ Harris for His Administration, Including Vice President
Definitely another great reason to not consider voting for him.
