It will, actually, but even if it did not, it is MORE IMPORTANT to pull Republican swing. In 2016, Clinton pulled 90% of blacks, which was only 4 points off of Obama's pull in 2012.
Isn't that adorable. Semantics games.
What sucks is that you don't seem to be thinking this one through.
I've been accused of many things, but "not thinking something through" has never been one of them, especially when it comes to politics.
Your solution is to white wash the ticket, literally.
Not "my" solution; THE objective solution and for exhaustively detailed reasons based on the real world numbers I have repeatedly presented.
I agree, this isn't the time to put a Transgender Socialist Hippopotamus on the ticket.
Suggesting that Kamela Harris can't win because of her gender and race is ridiculous and unsupported.
IT'S NOT WHETHER OR NOT SOMEONE HAS THE GENERAL CAPACITY TO WIN; IT'S WHETHER OR NOT THEY CAN BEAT TRUMP, WHICH IS AN ENTIRELY DIFFERENT MATTER.
Why the fuck can't Dems comprehend this?
In America, Republicans fuck you.
it is the "independent voter" and left-wing turnout.
By which you mean,
right-leaning Independents, which is their swing component.
Putting two white guys on the ticket does not guarantee that.
It absolutely does in and of itself, but it
certainly does when the alternative is a black woman or a gay mayor
this time. We are talking about
swing potentials, not about core percentages.
Two white people last time didn't win, and they didn't lose because Clinton was/is a woman.
They did, in fact win. What they lost was
rural middle class older white guys, and 2020 isn't about 2016, it's about what's happened
since 2016 and why there is no reason to take any
risks knowing what we know.
Once again, it's about
this time NOT ABOUT ALL TIME.
Fucking hell.
