Michigan Gov. Gretchen Whitmer (D) met with Joe Biden in Delaware last weekend as the former vice president nears a decision on his running mate.

Whitmer visited Biden Sunday, two high-ranking Michigan Democrats told The Associated Press. Biden has said in the past that he’s considering Whitmer to be his No. 2 on the Democratic ticket.

Whitmer is one of his national campaign chairs.

Last weekend when Kamala was rumored to be the favorite? Gretch knew she had to visit Creepy Joe “in person” to stay in the race

Yah there’s no way he can pick a VP who isn’t black - it would be such a slap in the face to his base to pass over the black candidates for Whitmer

Why doesn't Bernie claim he is a black woman, and become Biden's running mate? Pochahauntus claimed she was an indian for decades.

Would be so Joe like to do this. His explanation would be legendary, probably out doing anything else he has said. The total black vote would drop significantly and Trump would get 20 to 25% of those who do vote.

Yeah if my memory serves me correctly, that was his pledge immediately after the S.C. primary, which Jim Clyburn secured for him....and had it not been for that, Biden would've been over and out. So to go back on that without an extremely serious reason would be quite detrimental. Very detrimental.

Between this and his recent bunch of commercials here in NEOhio, looks like the campaign is trying to pivot to "he's just like you and me, and Trump's rich with rich friends".
Trying to capture the blue-collar middle class.

Going to really piss off the Lefties.

Do you know how I know this article lies?

Biden can barely consider chewing or just swallowing jello.

He sure as heck doesn't consider this.

She is awful. I’ll wait for someone to reply with the “she has a 70% approval rating” or whatever the BS number is today. I would bet 70% of the people in Michigan couldn’t even name the Governor if asked. I think that would apply to most states as well.
