And this is what I be trying get Ivory Tower ass @No1 to understand....

There's my core beliefs, then there's what it realistic.

My core beliefs are actually very far left, but regarding what's practical is a whole other can of worms.
How dare a dude who once said he thought his family making over 400k a year was middle class ever talk to me about ivory towers? I grew up in the inner city and spend my spare time mentoring poor kids and my pro bono time helping people keep their lights on. My homie who often posts on this account is a civil rights attorney. This like she the Rothschild called Obama an elitist an Hillary’s behalf. The lack of self—awareness is stunning. And the post you quoted has nothing to do with do with the left.

Biden would probably pick Stacy Abrams?

honestly if he wanted to inject excitement and go way outside the box, he’d pick Yang
I just don't see Yang moving the needle for Biden at all. Biden will need someone that can hopefully energize the younger/progressive base to turnout for him.

Also this time VP pick will actually matter more than previously because top Dem nominees are all :flabbynsick: and have a good chance of dying in the office.

Only reason I say Yang is cause of youth. And cross over support.

But Joe isn’t down with the Freedom Dividend.

The main thing is you need to excite black voters.

Black voters don't need excitement when it comes to Biden. The unreliable young black kids maybe but the older black folks will vote for him gladly and likely have a cookout while waiting in line.

I used to be the conductor of the Stacy abrams for vp train.

she’s not married. Unfortunately it’s not happening :francis:
i dont like the stacey abrams pick because it just comes off as blatant pandering :yeshrug:

like you can tell that joe biden and stacey abrams have never spoken to each other, ever :dead: if stacey was actually running in this race, i would like the pick. it's why i like picking tulsi

Trump is looking to replace Pence :leon:
all because of the prospect of a woman being part of the dem ticket :ehh: they dont want to run two old white guys against a woman that can excite people about the prospect of her being president or VP

and now trump is stuck with pence, it's too late :lolbron:

How do you get young black voters excited?

By trying to speak to populism in a way that they can see as befitting their lives as is in 2020. The issue is the type of populism we see today isn't necessarily the sort of thing that get's older black folks to the ballot box. Quite frankly if you have to choose or if you have limited resources as a white candidate you will always go after the older black vote. This is why Biden is in the lead there despite not really having any sort of detailed plans for African Americans....instead you see him at church, going to cookouts, hanging out at HBCUs, bigging up his Obama days....that sort of shyt speaks to older black voters but has younger blacks like :stopitslime: where the tangibles at.
