The hype over whom Kamala, a VP, will pick as her VP, is part of the astroturf effort to generate excitement around her non-candidacy. It really doesn’t matter which of the contenders she ends up picking.
The last vice president to take the White House before Biden was George H.W. Bush. And like Biden he was a one-term president.
The last vice president to exercise any meaningful influence in an administration was Dick Cheney and he was an exception. The average vice president is like the second son of a royal family, largely useless except for ceremonial events. Vice presidents tend to be lightweights (Kamala, Biden), not very bright (Kamala, Biden), and useless for anything that doesn’t involve having their picture taken (Kamala, Biden).
Even when it comes to elections, the idea that the VP brings along his state is debatable. Shapiro is currently a popular governor, but few people in Pennsylvania are so undecided between Trump and Kamala that he’s going to sway them. Having a VP who can talk to white working-class voters, basically the qualifier for Kamala’s aspirants, would be nice, but it doesn’t outweigh a presidential candidate (Kamala, Obama) who’s kryptonite to them.
The Veep search is just more hype for a campaign that has nothing to be hyped about but is trying to manufacture energy any way it can. Whomever Kamala picks won’t define the ticket, she will.
jeremiah says
As Ted would say. ” Exactly right.”
Mickorn says
Wow. The depth of the analysis is breathtaking. A presidential campaign searching for more hype and energy? Unheard of! Absurd!
Crack investigative journalism, Daniel!
George W says
Hey, Mickey, that was so funny, you just crack me up, hilarious, Do some more.

The Governor of Pennsylvania, Josh Shapiro, at a Kamala Harris political rally last week, gave a speech full of
scatological references … he screamed ” … SH!!!T … ” 7 times that I counted, referring to Trump and the GOP.
He also faked a ” black accent ” numerous times just for emphasis.
Pennsylvania voters must have been out of their mind to elect him as governor.
Obviously Shapiro is well qualified for the Vice Presidency of the USA
Shapiro’s speech was carried on C-Span TV, which did not censor the scatological dirty words.
Domenic Pepe says
Kamala …. The Big Fat-Mouth Laughing Hyena Carnival Lady ….
Is this the next president of the USA ?
Algorithmic Analyst says
Like “Laughing Sal” at Playland in San Francisco.
John Eddy says
Let’s hope not.
Frank Secco says
Definition of KamaLa:
Latin: Risus abundat in ore of stultorum. wich translate :”Laughter abounds in the mouth of fools”
Greg says
Put lipstick on a pig and it’s still Kamala “Heels Up” Harris.
MuggsSpongedice says
I hope it is Shapiro and the antisemitic demons that are fashionable and in vogue will not vote for Harris – Shapiro because he is a Jew!!!
Who stupid enough to vote for the dingbat stooge puppet who Cackling Kamalalala?
If you are a Jew, you have no business voting for any anti-semitic anti-Israel anti-American demoncRat!!
Domenic Pepe says
I am very pessimistic that Trump and the GOP can win Pennsylvania.
This is the state that voted John Fetterman as Senator.
Fetterman was as close to being a corpse as is physically possible without actually being dead.
Same with Biden.
Something is drastically mentally wrong with the majority of Pennsylvania voters.
I doubt they are going to change this time around and go for Trump and Vance.
The Penn electorate are as close to berserk as is possible without actually being in a mental institution.
They just do not care about all the economic and social and cultural damage and misery that Biden and Harris and the democrats impose them.
That is insane.
Daniel Greenfield says
Fetterman was up against Mohammed Oz a Turkish Muslim who refused to give up his enemy citizenship and supported transgenderizing kids
it was one of the worst Republican Senate picks ever
Domenic Pepe says
Yes … Oz definitely seemed like an outsider to Voters in Pennsylvania.
He changed his state residency to qualify as a candidate in Penn.
His ” credentials ” and M.D. and TV program exposure did not help either.
And maintaining his dual Turkish citizenship was not helpful for a US Senate candidate.
So for the past few years Oz seems to have completely disappeared from the political and social and cultural scenes.
Republicans should have had more sense than to promote Oz for senator from Penn.
cat says
imagine Oz there today given his Turkish roots. He may have joined the squad!
Martina Vaslovik says
There’s a video on Rumble of her explaining the cloud to us, saying that when we store our files there they are no longer in a physical place but way up; far over our heads in the cloud. I could not have made that one up.
Steve says
I’m afraid to visit the US now, All these people carrying around guns and mass shootings, Why would I risk my life to visit?
World@70 says
I agree, it won’t help much who Kamala picks, but a really bad pick could hurt her a lot.
So I’m hoping she picks her husband or Khalid Sheikh Mohammed.
kaosken says
What if Kameltoes can’t find anyone to run as VP?
