But will her choice really matter or have an impact on whether she wins?

Thank you for being honest about Biden being the one who said she was a DEI hire

[daveando]

Harries is picking a white guy for VP, so is that DEI too?

Allan Lichtman says VP choice is irrelevant.

Andy Beshear, and for a lot of reasons, most importantly, he connects with rural, white people, and in that way he is able to honestly, genuinely and respectfully dispel the fearmongering. I think that's key for Harris in this election.

Sounds like Geraldo is saying DEI is important

[DanH-uf]

It won't matter, she'll lose anyways.

[sizakelemoloko]

She needs to pick someone they share vision of her policies.

If she picks a woman….like Whitmer….women will vote in droves….particularly with abortion as an issue.

Has to be RFK Jr. To have any chance of winning

[JDRamos]

Yet he said Trump's VP pick of JD Vance mattered?

[Krayd-qj]

Sometimes they matter. Trump picking Gabbard would’ve guaranteed a win.
