Summary
Minnesota Governor Tim Walz, Kamala Harris’ 2024 running mate, has suggested he may run for president in 2028.
Reflecting on the Democrats’ loss to Donald Trump and JD Vance, he admitted: “A large number of people did not believe we were fighting for them in the last election – and that’s the big disconnect.”
Walz said his life experience, rather than ambition, would guide his decision.
Though his VP campaign was marred by gaffes, he remains open to running if he feels prepared.
He’s got some things going for him. Male. Presumably heterosexual. Caucasian. Old (but perhaps not quite old enough). I say go for it.
Dude, just say “not AOC.”
I hate this persistent belief that much of America is still too racist and sexist to accept a black or woman president. I hate it, even if it may be true.
Unfortunately we see the country as better than it really is, or at least, I DID. After the election I saw how many people wanted to kick people out of the country because they believe immigrants are bad. Then they seem to have no problem with a South African immigrant pulling the strings. Immigrants weren’t the problem with them, but the skin color. We did it before we became a country in the 1600s, and we’ll continue doing it, because we love believing that our skin color makes us superior.
