    Kelly just seems like a no-brainer. Astronaut, Navy pilot and Captain, Arizona Senator that took McCain’s seat, looks like a generically bland old white guy at a glance. Even the Republicans can’t complain about him too much 🤷‍♂️

      All of that doesn’t matter with Republicans. They went in full force with Pete Buttigieg, questioned his military record and even created fake sexual assault allegations.

      He’s fairly moderate too, so he’d help a little there, given his record. That aside, I’d have to take a look, but he has voted more progressively of late. I really hope he’s picked as VP.

    Please pick Buttigieg. There’s rumors that he is going to be running for governor in Michigan and there is no chance I’m voting someone who just moved here to be my governor. Yes, his husband counts as a Michigander and I would vote for his husband - just not him. I don’t want to have to vote for someone who’s not really a Michigander and someone who’s going to ruin the State
