Note I meant that it might be to be able to run for VP, not that he'd necessarily win the position if he did so.

- HWR_14 3y agoYou no longer run for VP. In the modern era the presidential candidate just chooses who they want.
- dataflow 3y agoBy "run" I just meant that he'd appear in the set of people that might be considered (by Biden) if for any reason it turns out he wants Harris replaced.
- HWR_14 3y agoThen go up to my first reply. Newsom isn't going to run for a position he has a 0% chance of winning and will piss people off trying. He probably wants a cabinet position.
- dataflow 3y agoI guess that would make sense, but what cabinet position would he actually want (and see as a stepping stone for later)? Secretary of State?
- HWR_14 3y agoState would make a lot of sense.
- dataflow 3y agoI guess it would have the benefit of giving him exposure, and I'm not sure if there's a better cabinet position otherwise, but does being secretary of state actually help with making a case for people to like him for presidency? How much of the credit does he get if things go well vs. the blame if things go poorly?
