There's is so much that Sen Mark Kelly would bring if he got the nod for VP on the #Harris ticket.

But Minnesota consistently will #VoteBlue and replacing Gov Tim Walz with another Dem is more likely to happen than giving the nod to Kelly.

It's a risky move to pull a Dem senator from Arizona, despite a Dem governor in place to appoint another Dem for two years.

Would love to see Mark Kelly but my bet is on Walz or Beshear. This article says it's between Walz and Shapiro but the PA gov is problematic in my opinion.

I'm hoping for Walz - but I'll vote for Harris even if she picked a pet rock for VP

The alternative is disastrous for the US and the World. It's so obvious - yet so many people have been conned/fooled, or are just happy voting GOP because they share the same ugly traits as their grifting leader.

@CoachMark

I cant in good conscious support a party that is pro-genocide. Never mind Harris's horrible history of women's and trans rights.

I plan to vote for the good guy (shocker I know)... chase oliver is my top pick for the moment. Green party's Stein might get my vote if i change my mind.

I just cant imagine anyone supporting the level of evil the democrats and republicans have demonstrated, not to mention incompetence.

That's all I've got. But you do you.

@Burnt_Veggies

Thats why I said Chase Oliver is my first choice.. Stein would be a compromise at best... basically anything is better then Harris vs Trump.

@CoachMark @WrenArcher @kamalaharrisforpresidentnews

@freemo @Burnt_Veggies @CoachMark @WrenArcher @kamalaharrisforpresidentnews

The "compromise" would choose the middle ground between democracy or fascism.

Erm, what would that be? Who would that be? How would they even get there???

@gfjacobs

Right, which is what I am doing. Harris and Trump represent fascism, and while Chase Oliver isnt perfect he is a good compromise between freedom and fascism.

@Burnt_Veggies @CoachMark @WrenArcher @kamalaharrisforpresidentnews

@freemo @gfjacobs

Please explain to me two things.

First, how is voting for a fringe candidate who cannot win anything or accomplish anything any kind of compromise, let alone a good one?

Second, explain to me exactly how Kamala Harris represents fascism.

> First, how is voting for a fringe candidate who cannot win anything or accomplish anything any kind of compromise, let alone a good one?

Cause who wins or looses will in no way be effected by your vote. So your vote has no more value if you happened to pick the guy who won or the guy who lost, that outcome is the same regardless.

So since voting for the guy who happens to win accomplished absolutely nothing as well the question is how is voting for a third party candidate, presuming he looses, accomplishing something. Simple, your nudging the percentage points for third parties higher, and the percentage for primary parties lower. This in turn effects botht he calculated (projected) chance of a third party being a challenger int he future, and drives greater support to third parties (as they are harder to write off the higher their percentage points go).

So in short, while voting for a majority candidate absolutely does no good, even if it wins, voting third party **always** does good regardless of if they win.

> Second, explain to me exactly how Kamala Harris represents fascism.

In much the same way the republicans do. With violent exclusionary opposition to even mild criticism of their party. and the fantacism that goes along with that. Combine that with her general support of police and an unwillingness to fix (or even recognize in any meaningful way) the deep rooted issue with police in this country, and combine that with the genocide she supports in palestine the fascism meter is cranked all the way to 11.

"an unwillingness to fix (or even recognize in any meaningful way) the deep rooted issue with police in this country"

Lie number 3.

Right, as I said I didnt really expect a fair or objective (unbiased) opinion on this half of the question. Like I said your opinion on this half isnt particular interest for me to debate as I dont expect it to get anywhere productive if you are that far gone (biased).
