  • Please, don’t rely so much on polling, let’s hear more about their policies and goals, TALK to voters, speak with the Candidates!
  • You can have a million different experts trying to explain how to build EXCITMENT during Election Year - You will never find the right formula or right answer for that question.
  • @Jin125
    The VP Pick is Waltz!! -Cooper, Beshear, and Kelly are too boring -Shapiro would be great but he smeared the youth protesters over Gaza so he’s risky to damaging the coalition -Waltz speaks well and in a way that connects with middle class white voters. He gives a permission structure for white voters who may have reservations voting for a black woman and he doesn’t damage the coalition. He’s the pick
  • @yarnpower
    Gov. Tim Walz would be the best choice. He is quick witted, intelligent and has a strong history of working to help ordinary Americans.
  • @darylsmith5737
    Mark Kelly.... Please. Veteran flyer, astronaut, and senator. Also a victim, although indirectly, of gun violence. I believe Harris/Kelly would be an unbeatable ticket.
  • @bzxshor67mpts
    So nice to see young voters starting to shape their and their children's future which currently looks hopeless
  • @jlindsey8905
    Really? Relief? Relief is pepto or tums. Kamala is the heartburn.
  • @user-fn7ev7nx4c
    Intelligence and integrity. That is what he / she needs to bring.
  • @playadeoro6806
    national security question - Pete B for Secretary of State
  • @mihamal3435
    I don’t need to know her to vote for her because I know way tooo muchhhhhh about him and that tells me everything I need to know that is why I voting for her all the way down the ticket blue blue blue
  • straight from the heart no punches pulled a serious demeanor that matches the political climate of the globe PROJECT STRENGTH and STABILITY clear message to putin to stand down a vp that appeals to centrist / independents
  • @LR-mh8hs
    Trump: Pessimism, negativity, same old, same old. Kamala: Hope, optimism, equality, opportunity and JOY!
  • @patrickm1533
    I like the idea of a national security VP pick. They could be useful in office but I question how much that will help her campaign. She needs someone who’s already been vetted for office and can either secure a state/region or can campaign for her.
