If you& #39;re thinking about voting for Joe Biden, who do you hope will be his running mate?
. @symonedsanders says if there& #39;s one thing Biden knows about is being vice president and the selection process for the job.

"What& #39;s most important to him is someone who can mirror the relationship he and Obama had."

"That& #39;s an important thread that has to be continued." https://www.nytimes.com/2020/05/31/us/politics/black-americans-democrats-trump.html">https://www.nytimes.com/2020/05/3...
