They do? Are you sure about that? I seem to remember an election about 4 years ago that says having a vejaja wasn't exactly a top priority for Suburban Women and Indies, at least those not in Kommiefornia or New York City.
I'm not sure of much of anything these days :)

There's a difference between wanting a woman President and wanting ANY woman to be President. Most of the women I know who spoke about the 2016 election remember how Hillary victim shamed Monica Lewinski and considered her despicable just for that.

To say the least. Trying to claim that America is not racist...
Then move. Just leave. If you feel a country that elected a black president is systemically racist then leave, no one is stopping you. Bye!
 If only...

I'd put Haley first as well.
I agree, Haley as the first woman president who is also a minority and has leadership experience. They'd be really hard to beat, honestly the only candidate I think the Dem's could put up against them would be Michelle Obama.
That whole cult of personality rock star persona won it for her husband. Could work for her with that brain dead base the dems command. What a disaster that would be.

And just to be clear. WHITE PEOPLE elected a black president... twice.
To their chagrin, I'll bet most of them are regretful that they did. He was a piece of nothingburger, no mustard, no mayo, no lettuce or tomato, just two buns and a soy burger. The most worthless piece of humanity one can be.

It wouldn't do any good as there are computers in other countries. He'd just be like those Cannucks who hate Trump and put their Cannucky noses in our elections. Let's just feed him to the sharks, I hear they love that other white meat. Charlie Tuna would appreciate it.

RE: Tim Scott/Nicki Haley 2024
I'm not super-familiar w/ either TBH, but I've seen Tim Scott give interviews on Fox & liked what I've seen. I loved his line yesterday about running in the birthplace of the Confederacy against all whites & winning
IMO we need bulldogs. If people like their policies but they're not fighters, it's a lost cause.

Interesting. Had no idea. Wonder what the logic behind that was?

RE: Tim Scott/Nicki Haley 2024
I'm hoping that Scott decides to run against Governor Foghorn Leghorn in 2022 because somehow he's managed to piss off everybody with his "leadership" during covid and Scott needs to prove his executive branch chops before I'd anoint him worthy of being ready for one of the two big seats.
Haley is an absolute badass who isn't afraid to trench fight if the need arises. She proved to be an excellent, out-front leader during the floods of 2015 and Hurricane Matthew. The only real misstep anyone could say she had was the hiring of Leroy Smith as Director of Public Safety, which oversees the Highway Patrol, Transport Police and Protective Services, because of pressure to hire a black man for the position.

There are racists....no doubt and we still have a long way to go....but to make the claim that America is racist is an absurd assertion. Why are Asian and Indian immigrants prospering so well in this country? Is it just that America hates black people? Ok. Never fcking mind we elected one as POTUS for two damn terms.
SMH.

RE: Tim Scott/Nicki Haley 2024
IMO...Mike Pence deserves an opportunity to be POTUS. He has shown the type of poise and eloquence that many of us wish Trump possessed. I was on the fence with Pence(no pun intended)but I have a lot of respect for the way he has handled himself through this pandemic. He would make a fine President. Id be fine with either Scott or Haley as his VP and continue to fill the pipeline for the future.

RE: Tim Scott/Nicki Haley 2024
Problem with both president and VP nominee from same state. South Carolina electors could not vote for both. In a close election, could make a difference.

Haley? No. We've had enough adventurism abroad. Our military, the budget, and the world at large need to recover from all of the stupid wars and regime changes Trump's predecessors have put us in. No more chickenhawks in the Oval Office.

I am definitely someone who didn't care for Pence until the pandemic. Before the pandemic, I was saying Trump should drop him b/c he adds nothing from a political standpoint, but I've been very pleased w/ him since. But I don't think he could win as top of the ticket

No on Haley. But, I'd be glad to get behind a Cruz/Scott ticket in 2024, after Trump finishes his second term.

Not unconstitutional at all. All it means is that the electors from
South Carolina would only be able to vote for whoever is on the top of the ticket and then vote for a separate VP.
