So Politics Bluesky: If Kamala runs, who should her VP nom be?

Mark Kelly, Andy Beshear, or Roy Cooper.

As for Mark Kelly, we also don't want to open up a Senate seat in a purple state

Katie Hobbs would appoint his replacement, who wouldn't have to run for reelection until 2026, I believe.

Ok Scott Kelly

I don't think Cooper would run for president. Beshear might. So that offers the difference between the two. But then we're looking at 2032 at the earliest, so I wouldn't game it out that far.

I have a hard time imagining any politician taking the VP slot and not running for prez after

Beshear is running for pres next cycle. He’s already started with some of the early primary states and showing up to get his name out there.
