...Old, boring, a plagiarist, fond of hair sniffing and grabbing the protruding parts of women, and not whatcha call brilliant ...
to name a black woman as his running mate.
It seems undeniable that as the former vice president considers one of the most consequential decisions of his White House bid — whom he’ll choose as running mate — the wave of unrest sweeping across America’s cities sparked by Floyd’s death is impacting his decision-making as it elevates the combustible issue of racial injustice.
But the presumptive Democratic presidential nominee -- in an interview with CBS News that was broadcast on Tuesday — said that the events of the past two weeks "haven’t" impacted him as he decides whom he’ll name as the party’s vice presidential nominee "except it’s put a greater focus and urgency on the need to get someone who is totally simpatico with where I am" on matters such as "the systemic things that you want to change."
