“The prospect of the first Black woman to appear on a presidential ticket looks more likely than ever before, with Joe Biden seriously considering Kamala Harris, Val Demings and Keisha Lance Bottoms to be his running mate,” McClatchy reports.
“But there’s also a serious white contender in the mix who is showing a unique capacity to energize African Americans: Elizabeth Warren.”
“While the continued protests sparked by the death of George Floyd have amplified the pressure on Biden to choose a Black woman as his No. 2, several Black leaders are voicing a notable degree of support for Warren, strengthening her case as a vice presidential pick as other white candidates have lost traction in the current climate.”
