That’s nearly two months away. I know the US political system is generally very drawn out, but it doesn’t have to be. Two months is still quite a while to select a new candidate. I’m sure, if need be, they could have one by Monday afternoon.
Kamala Harris is probably in the best spot (according to some American news clip I watched earlier) since she will either be the candidate or the VP candidate given it would be beneficial for someone prominent from the Biden admin to run with any new candidate.
I’m not too familiar with American politicians, younger ones at least, so perhaps some Americans have some ideas who would be competent and with the knowledge and experience to take on the job as President of the US. Just someone who is capable would be sufficient to beat Trump.
Ed Markey and Elizabeth Warren are 77 and 75 respectively, but they’re like the only two competent and experienced politicians I can think of who are capable of running the US, but probably about 15 years older than the oldest one should be running for a first term. Both are sharp witted, ideologically sound, and incredibly experienced. Any Americans have better ideas? Preferably below the age of 60… maybe 65 tops.
I describe myself as a little dose of toxic masculinity.
