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.

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.

Hello. Your impression of Harris' record on LGBTQ and Women's rights is absolutely factually wrong.
Her presence as POTUS is WELCOMED by both communities and by the organizations that are constantly fighting for the civil rights of those groups.

There are more articles.
So we just going to ignore the SESTA act she supported that denied trans women of the hormone or all the danger she put sex workers in more generally from that act? Yea ok....
@beccanalia @CoachMark @WrenArcher @kamalaharrisforpresidentnews > She owns up to it and stands by that decision.
Exactly, which is why she is an absolute disgusting human being. If she actually apologized and recognized it and many of her decisions were wrong, if she showed an ounce of humility she might have stood a chance with me.
However, she is STILL accepted by the LGBTQ community and is WELCOMED as a POTUS candidate.
The fact that an abusee praises their abuser isnt an argument that will hold much weight with me. Also speaking about the LGBT community as if its a monolithic thing with a single opinion is just not accurate. I certainly know some LGBT who support her, and an huge number who dont as well. Most who support her I find buy into the 2-party system myth rather than due to actually liking her (most of the time).
Her history of LGBTQ support reaches back to 2004 – earlier & more constant than Pres. Obama’s at that time.
Her “support” is words, her actions shows very much the contrary.
This is a good article about her history with the LGBTQ community and issues that concern them the most: https://19thnews.org/2020/08/kamala-harris-complicated-lgbtq-choice/
Does this aerticle contain only praising references or does it include a mix of both her good points and her mistakes? I dont mind reading an article but based on how you talk it sounds more like its going to be a propaganda piece and ill be wasting my time listening to someone tell me why I should be as bias as they are and find nothing wrong with her of any kind. If the report is honest and includes good and bad in an actually objective sense, then ill be happy to read.
