What do you think of a two woman Democratic ticket?

Not naming names. Just the concept. What doing you think?

I think it is an idea worth considering. Women are politically ascendent, at long last. It is time.

Imagine Trump trying to run against two women. He will piss off LOTS of people as he tries.

I think now is the time, the stars are aligned, and a two woman ticket could be just the ticket.

because women who work hard to qualify and be serious about running for the highest office in the US, want to be valued for their hotness above all else. What will you give them for a fuckability rating or are you talking about 1 on 1situation.



Good fucking grief. The women running are highly educated and you just reduced their worth based on their looks.

and if we have two women who can fulfill that I am all in favor.

I would guess the VP candidate would not be one of the presidential candidates but someone who would fill in some holes that the top of the ticket lacks. Perhaps say the governor of Kansas (just spitballing here) - or maybe a Stacey Abrams?

But I see no reason why not.

I have only one specific requirement that both be qualified and able to effectively execute the duties of the office with regard to the good and will of the people.

I'm not particularly excited about the men running in 2020 for that reason.
