The country will be scared to death that if Biden dies or becomes so senile he can't even function 50% of the time like he does now, an inexperienced Whitmer would be president.

It's not like it would hurt his chances of winning, which are stuck at zero. If Biden wants to pick a desirable and effective VP, he needs to pick someone with a demonstrated and proven track record of leadership, not just someone spewing TDS.

For Biden to limit his VP choice to ONLY females ENSURES that the BEST QUALIFIED PERSON will not be VP!
Simple math. But not to worry, America, my sense is that the DNC has already soured on Biden...in favor of a more presidential, smooth talking type, with perhaps a Clinton as VP. Imagine THAT!!

At least whoever he chooses will be more competent than him though maybe not the best.

Exactly. The pandering is nauseating.

As of December 2019, Whitmer’s approval rating was 42 percent in Michigan. I hope he does pick her....

"Using approval ratings for governors across the U.S., 24/7 Wall St. this week released its most recent list of Most and Least Popular Governors in America. To identify where governors ranked on the list, 24/7 Wall St. reviewed research company Morning Consult's Governor Approval Ratings, which are based on survey data collected during the fourth quarter of 2019.

Whitmer was ranked one of the least popular governors, according to the list, coming in no. 43 overall. As of December 2019, Whitmer's approval rating was 42 percent."

If Whitmer was the VP Candidate vs Pence as the VP Candidate, the above Whitmer approval ratings would be higher than Pence's 39.8 RCP approval ratings.

And let's all remember... This is among the best, the creme de la creme, as good as it gets when it comes to leadership on the left. Someone who belongs in a nursing home, and one of the most unpopular mayors in the USA. Dems have been stranded up the poop river without a paddle for so long, and now their vessel has sprung a leak They are going to have to take drastic measures. Perhaps the DNC will roll out Hillary again and try to shove her down America's throat...

All A President ever needs is the ability to sign his name to some legislation. as President's are nothing more than puppets, strings being pulled this way and that way.

One big Trump string puller is Jared Kushner. And the Israeli's, and the Pentagon, and the NEA, and the Evangelicals, and those that contribute to his campaigns, and, and, and!

Biden considering Michigan Governor Gretchen Whitmer for VP?
You still think there is going to be an election?

I think its more likely the electoral college will be assembled by the States who will then elect Trump since most States are red.
