It will be Kamala Harris or Susan Rice. Biden will announce it this week.
Biden should go with Michele Obama. I think Tulsi is retiring from politics. She probably wants to get some kids before she hits 50.

Tulsi is a fraud and a traitor.
How is she a fraud and a traitor?

Tulsi is a smart woman but I prefer Kamala Harris as Joe Biden VP pick.
Both Kamala and Tulsi grew up going to Hindu temples. I don't think Kamala still goes but Tulsi is 100 percent still into the religion so she gets my support.
Iman wooden mind giving Tulsi a good ole fashioned whole body massage.

I think that Susan Rice will be his pick. Remember, Kamala Harris accused him of racism.
I am giving the edge to Kamala:
- Proven campaigner beginning with SF District Attorney, the CA Attorney General, US Senate and most recently Democratic Presidential Primaries
- She has to a certain extent been vetted by the broader population because of her participation in the Democratic Presidential Primaries
- As a US Senator she has national experience
- As District Attorney and CAâs Attorney General she brings great experience and credibility for police reform and other issues raised by the BLM movement (granted this experience comes with its own baggage)
- She is an effective surrogate as proven in the Senate hearings
- Brings a ton of Bay Area money
- She is a less risky choice than the other candidates on the short list
- Overall Kamala is extremely qualified which should help to mitigate any concerns the electorate may have about Joe Biden given his age

She put away a lot of Black youths for weed and then laughingly admitted she smoke weed in college!
She is another Hillary, highly qualified but also highly flawed personality.
Iâm backing Trump again.

Disagree. Kamala is no Sarah Palin.
Of course I expect she would be attacked by the other side as being hysterical or ambitious, maybe hysterically ambitious. They will lean in on the misogyny + racist dog-whistle attacks. However she will be more than able to handle the incoming.

As opposed to a guy who is unqualified and a sociopath?

Joe Biden has chosen Kamala Harris, the prominent senator from California whose political career has included many barrier-breaking moments, as his running mate, his campaign announced on Tuesday.
The decision comes more than a year after Harris, who was also a 2020 Democratic candidate, clashed with Biden over racial issues during the first primary debate. If elected, she would be the nationâs first female, first Black and first Asian American vice president.
Picking Harris, who is 55, will also provide the ticket with some generational diversity. Biden, who is 77, would be the oldest president-elect in U.S. history.
"You make a lot of important decisions as president. But the first one is who you select to be your Vice President. Iâve decided that Kamala Harris is the best person to help me take this fight to Donald Trump and Mike Pence and then to lead this nation starting in January 2021," Biden wrote in an email from his campaign to supporters.
Harris, the only Black woman in the U.S. Senate, was first elected in 2016 after serving as Californiaâs Attorney General and, before that, San Francisco District Attorney. A native of Oakland, California, and the child of Jamaican and Indian immigrants, Harris has said she was inspired to attend law school after joining civil rights protests with her parents.
"Sheâs been a fighter and a principled leader and I know because Iâve seen her up close and Iâve seen her in the trenches," Biden said of Harris at a virtual fundraiser in June.
As attorney general, Harris worked closely with Bidenâs late son, Beau Biden, when he was Delaware's attorney general, particularly in challenging big banks in the wake of the housing crisis. In her book, "The Truths We Hold: An American Journey," Harris says the pair "talked every day, sometimes multiple times a day."
Because of their friendship, Harris' attack on Biden during the first Democratic primary debateâ for his record on busing and working with segregationistsâ came as a shock to the Biden campaign, his family and the candidate himself.
"I was prepared for them to come after me, but I wasn't prepared for the person coming at me the way she came at me. She knew Beau, she knows me," Biden said in an interview later that summer. He said Harris had "mischaracterized" his position.
The surprise and backlash of that debate moment in Miami was still top of mind for Biden's wife Jill as recently as March. The former second lady said in a virtual fundraiser, "Our son Beau spoke so highly of her and, you know, and how great she was. And not that she isn't. I'm not saying that. But it was just like a punch to the gut. It was a little unexpected."
Both Biden and Harris allies have acknowledged that, in the months after she left the race, Harris has given her full support to the Biden campaign. She has often campaigned virtually for Biden, holding joint fundraisers with the candidate and roundtables around issues like the racial disparities in coronavirus cases and protecting the Affordable Care Act. In a June virtual fundraiser, she raised $3.5 million for the campaign.
Strong ticket. Kamala will roast Trump and Pence.
Agree. Very strong ticket.
