A lot of VP psycho drama

[DIVINEprividence]

At the end of the day, other than Joe Biden and Hillary Clinton, Susan Rice is the most qualified individual to be President of the United States on the democratic side in the country right now, black or white, gay or straight, make or female. Fck all that. Can you do the job or not? Susan Rice can. Anyone wants to mess with her, take Russian bounties on American troops and bash the flag humping GOP with it. No disrespect to Harris, but she was never NSA.

1. I kind of agree

But would be fine with Harris or Rice.

I have a feeling that most of the VP candidates are envisaged to have roles in Joe's administration.

[TreasonousBastard]

2. And it's Joe's call. He's got his own criteria, about much of which we have no idea. But...

if it's Rice, we can all breathe easy.

Harris, too.

3. You have an unusual set of criteria for VP

I think Susan Rice is great, but not for an elected role.

On what basis do you say that Susan Rice is more competent than Elizabeth Warren or Kamala Harris or any number of other candidates who have been through the fire of an election?

Do you want another Trump? Not that Susan Rice will be anywhere near as awful as Trump, but I want someone who has won an election and has managed a political entity.

This is PRECISELY what was obvious even in 2019: Joe Biden was the perfect antidote to Trump. For the first time in decades, folks want an establishment leader. It took Trump to show us that.

4. Yes. I agree

6. Elections are a warm breeze in comparison.

They didn't say more competent, they said more qualified. It would be hard to find anyone with the actual relevant Presidential executive experience.

This is no political neophyte, she was one of the three or four most powerful players in the Obama administration. One of the two main gatekeepers who had to have Obama's full trust.

The NSA brief is vast and has to touch everything. Corn harvest in the Midwest, Climate, everything.

8. How is NSA experience relevant to the f'ups of Trump on the pandemic?

Susan Rice might make a good Secretary of State, but please tell me exactly how her qualifications help for a massive domestic crisis of Covid-19 that Trump has given us?

[Awsi Dooger]

5. I completely agree

The others are very good but Susan Rice is the only one who comes across as extraordinarily sharp and talented.

I would actually place her below Hillary but above Biden in terms of who would make the best president
