Clyburn Wants Biden to Pick Black Woman as Veep

House Majority Whip James Clyburn (D-SC), whose endorsement of Joe Biden was key to his landslide primary victory in South Carolina, told NPR that he wants Biden to choose an African American woman as his running mate if he becomes the Democratic presidential nominee.

Said Clyburn: “I really believe that we’ve reached a point in this country where African American women need to be rewarded for the loyalty that they’ve given to this party.”
