    1. Truthsayer Suz – Perhaps a Minnesotan will get the nod anyway? Esteemed congresswoman Omar is from there and her background would add a lot to the ticket and administration.

    2. Truthsayer Suz – I know. Actually, most of the unqualified contenders being mentioned would be suicide. Don’t think old Joe has ANY say in who’s selected.

  1. Amy what you going to do! I’d love to be with you for a while maybe longer if I do! Pure prairie league!

    1. She is choosing the wellbeing of the nation over her own personal goals. That is the hurt we read in her words. Takes a lot of guts and courage to do so! Most wonderful and very respectful imho.

    2. I noticed that ROTB. She already know who’s going to win in November, it’s NOT Biden or ant other democrapola. THAT IS why she was about to burst into tears. 😉

    1. @Lisa Lisa The move was clearly political, you can by the opening question this was planned. And she mentions having spoken with Biden the night before. I see it for what it is, a well executed move.

    2. Gabriel Lamar – Impressed? 😆🤣. Why? Even a fifth-grader could see this was a pathetic stunt to get some positive press and pretend she has a say in who should be chosen. Amy wasn’t on the list. She knew and we (most of us anyway) knew it!

  2. Sounds less like this is about some token VP pick & more like she got caught having failed to prosecute George Floyd’s killer….

    1. Lude Crestfallen You sure have mastered your Rose twitter fauxgressive lingo. Besides I love all of those women. “The Squad” that you had to go and google to know their names. Laughable. I’m FAR from centrist I’m a real progressive not a fake one. I want radical police reform, #DefundthePolice..

    2. @Classy Lady you find a VP pick that wants to defund the police. You find me a VP pick that wants to abolish ice. Maybe someone who’s unequivocal for medicare-for-all then I’ll listen.

    3. Lude Crestfallen – That tool “Classy Lady” isn’t fooling anyone. Some candidates are qualified, others aren’t (the make believe GA Governor). 🙂😆

    1. She actually had a pretty good chance. She would be a good fighting vp. Also, she is from a very important state

    2. Bill Collins – I know! How embarrassing Amy. You had no chance of being VP, and you knew it. Thus this pitiful stunt to get you some headlines. Go back to Minnesota and clean up that mess you helped to make!

  3. This reminds me of how Michael Scott took himself out of the running to replace Jan at the job interview in NYC.

  4. So 8 years with the 1st black president Clinton, and then another 8 years with Obama

    but a black VP will cure racism? 😂😂😂

  5. She was literally the best option for VP but then again. Identify politics are more important LOL
