Kamala Harris' VP Shortlist Released, Cenk's Take

"With President Joe Biden’s support unleashing a flood of endorsements from many prominent Democrats across the country, Kamala Harris has emerged as the favorite to take his place as the party’s nominee for president.

Harris immediately received the endorsements of many Democratic party leaders and inherited the Biden campaign’s war chest. The campaign formally amended filings with the Federal Election Commission to rename its principal committee and declare Harris a candidate for president."

Kelly is a former astronaut, navy fighter pilot, the husband of a beloved congresswoman, senator from a swing state…yeah he’s super boring and vanilla 😒. Cenk couldn’t be more wrong about this one. Kelly is not my first choice for VP, but I wouldn’t be upset either if Harris decided to go with him.

[pnhjfnh]

Bernie Sanders is great, but please shut up with that. He'll be 83 in September

[FormerHumanX]

Bernie Sanders? Biden just dropped out largely because of his age. They aren't choosing a VP who is even older.

[jackied]

So Mark Kelly the Astronaut is a "boring white dude" but Josh Shapiro who went straight from college to working on Capital Hill isn't?

[carlwilliams]

As a black man, I know no way America is ready for two black people on the ticket. This is about to be hell to get Kamala over the line. Get real Cenk.

[jstelzner]

Hopefully this Californian can undo some of the damage the last Californian did as president😊

[wearypirates]

Astronauts are boring according to Cenk 🧑‍🚀

[Pyrolonn]

Mark Kelly boring? Guy has been to the space station. Married to Gabby Giffords (!) has an identical twin who is also an astronaut. Only downside, follicly challenged.

[pamelawing]

I said Bernie Sanders a couple of weeks ago. He's old, but he'd be VEEP, AND he has ALL his marbles and young people love him.

[amazelord]

How the hell is an astronaut generic... Dude is super popular in Arizona. Generic white guy isn't getting that seat with the demos he got

[Nbrvin]

The best choice if you are progressive and also want political advantage is Andy Bashaer. He has a real economic populist vision and is someone who genuinely has values and doesn't back down from Republicans. He did all while running in Kentucky. No, Shapiro and Kelly are just political moderate figures who are mostly just cultural progressives, which.. so is Kamala.

A 25 year Vet, Fighter Pilot, Astronaut, Battle Ground Senator? This is not Rocket Science people!

[FlimsyPickles]

Kelly is boring? He’s an a former astronaut and fighter pilot. Give me a break Cenk.

[CSalsman]

Mark Kelly is boring? You’re out of your mind.

[LukeJ-cqks]

Mark Kelly is an astronaut. Astronauts aren’t boring.

[mcostagirl]

Doesn’t Josh Shapiro strongly support Israel? I wouldn’t want another strong Israel supporter pulling strings in the White House.

[HappyDinosaurFossils-xfzw]

Mark Kelly is a true American Idol. He's not just another politician. He would be the ideal President to represent America. The VP pick matters emensely! He's tough on guns and the border. Perfect!

[RadioLaPrincess]

Mark Kelly is my choice. He's an ASTRONAUT how is that boring? I am from Illinois and adore Pritzker but Illinois is a blue state and I don't want him to leave this state until he runs for president.

[captainJellico]

For Covfefe's sake, people! Vote! And get your friends to vote!

[MorrWorm]

Drink a bottle of Jack every time Cenk yells “OF COURSE” at the camera
