Just read an article on DailyKs and one has to ask....

...why are people so quick to put women, black women, black men and gay men in the VP box?

It is 2019 dammit.

One comment:

This.

White cis patriarchy is everywhere. Sometimes even among allies
If I were to vote in a presidential
primary today, I would vote for:
Joe Biden
