Who's Biden's VP?

I'm a cynical person, so take my opinion with a grain of salt.
Biden will pick Harris. Harris was unable to get black voters behind her on her own, Biden's people will probably figure the combination of Obama's VP (who black voters already showed out for) and a black woman on the ticket will energize enough of Obama's voters to defeat Trump.
But it could backfire. I don't know if a black woman with a white husband and a career as a prosecutor is going to do her any favors in trying to get the community behind her. And a lot has changed since 2012.
I really don't like Biden's commitment to picking a woman. For my money, the two people that would most strengthen the ticket are Yang or Sanders; these are figures with a base that partially exists outside the party. Putting them on the ticket would go a long way in getting votes. Harris and Warren's supporters, who are college educated liberals, can run their mouths all they want but at the end of the day they're going to vote Democrat no matter what.

I agree bro Yang was my dude. Now with the pandemic hitting the fan we all see what Yang was trying to do for us was the TRUTH!
He does have a big base as well so he'd help Joe get elected for sure.
Bernie too obviously has a huge base but I think Joe should get a young person because he even said he needs a VP who can be the President if he dies in office.
Thats crazy but he literally said that.
I hope he doesnt pick a woman just cause none of them are really that good. Kamala and Amy are solid but like u said they got baggage and they not that likable.

People are missing one important thing with Joe saying a woman would be the VP pick.
Loophole
It's 2020. These days anyone can 'identify' as a woman.
He could pick Bernie....so long as Bernie says "I identify as a woman"
No one can tell Bernie he's actually a man or they will be labelled as a bigot.
