The Case for Susan Rice
One name stands out: Susan Rice
Vice President Biden? Joe?
You and she were there for President Obama’s funding the U.S. CyberCommand's establishment.
You and she are experienced and well respected internationally.
She will not diminish Democratic Party numbers in the Senate.
She will ADD so much more to rebuild our international alliances while you rebuild our domestic and military strengths.
You both have had the most experience in building a 2,000+ person transition team of professionals and experts who can hit the ground running in 2021.
Susan Rice's civilian interface with the U.S. Military will make her as good a commander-in-chief as any candidate of either party in 2024.
Please, Joe, choose Susan Rice for your VP.
America knows you, and the world will welcome you both back.
