I will say if Kamala chooses wisely, and chooses Kelly, she has a better chance of beating Trump.

Kelly it is! An astronaut, combat vet, US Senator, and husband to Gabby Giffords who survived an assassination attempt. Who else can beat that?

[Lioness]

With Kelly it is a slam dunk. He is the ideal poster person for an American Patriot. Good Husband, strong family man, military man and a astronaut. He's spent his life serving his country.

Please, for the love of America, give us a Mark Kelly vs. JD Vance debate. 🙏

Harris needs to pick Mark Kelly as running mate. He's not a governor, but he is a naval officer, astronaut, senator critical of the border. But more importantly, he is a loving, supportive husband to Gabby Giffords, an assassination attempt survivor. He is a good honorable patriot. He would help with white males. More importantly, he would help solidify the women vote. He also has name recognition for the right reasons. The imagery of Kelly coming out onto stage in his naval uniform holding his wife's hand is powerful! Trump dreads this VP pick.

Our Mark Kelly would be perfect. Love Josh Shapiro but Mark has military experience.

[EllenLoehnis]

Mark Kelly is a great choice - a man of science - Knowledge is trumps kryptonite

[zonigurl]

Personally I think it should be Mark Kelly. His strength is the boarder and he can be very bipartisan when it comes to getting things done.

[Backcountryhiker]

I hope Kamala makes Mark Kelly the VP! You can't go wrong with Kelly, literally.

[fehendricks]

Mark Kelly will deliver a swing state.

[larynOneka]

Mark Kelly has nation wide name recognition and he's been vetted in the media already.

[emotionalsupporthipster]

Mark Kelly is a fucking astronaut! And that alone is pretty cool!
👨🏼‍🚀🚀🌌

How can a politician threaten civil war and get away with it???😡👎🏼

[ronowens]

Captain Kelly is remarkable. It would be an honor to support him.

[natashapeterson]

I like them both. I say go with Mark Kelly

[JonStark]

*Josh Shapiro…he’s VERY popular in Pennsylvania and would help acquire the 20 Electoral College Votes that swing/battleground state holds. He’s a former prosecutor and has incredible public speaking/debating skills.*

[hno]

Mark kelly everyone else is too soft or establishment. We need a fighter, he is a combat vet, pilot, and oh yea astronaut!!!! I mean really its not rocket science .

[MrArtist]

Josh Shapiro would be the best pick for VP, even though I'm in AZ and love Kelley. Either would be great but Shapiro is a great public speaker, has executive government experience, and very moderate, which Harris needs. Harris 2024!!!

[TheMasterkiller]

Josh Shapiro is the absolute smartest move.... You get him that should lock down And he's a smart dude also

[Barbara-uh]

Mark Kelly hero Senator astronaut leader American hero for VP!
