The last two years of questioning Pres Biden's age has been about hoping to knock Madam Vice President off.
This thread is going to be a love letter to her and the strongest argument for Pres Biden to stay.

It's not accurate to say she isn't strong electorally, especially considering her 2020 profile.
When MVP Harris announced her candidacy in 2020, she had the highest in-person turnout for her launch, the highest-rated town hall, and was one of the largest fundraising draws.

What she did NOT have is an access relationship with legacy media.
Nor did she have a good campaign operation. The second you can fix. That will not prevent her in the future.
The first - lets discuss.

Bernie Sanders/Elizabeth Warren had those relationships (even w/ black pundits) worked systematically on knocking Madam Vice President down a peg to remove her from their way.

This is how the Khive was born the playbook had been used effectively against HRC.
People were watching in real time the blatant disrespect, use of racial tropes, the constant questioning of her qualifications ...and it was a collective not on my watch.

Madam Vice President is building her reputation back.
The longer she is out there being her awesome self it quiets the doubters (not all)

@jrpsaki said Madam Vice President's biggest pitch for her to be president is you cannot sidestep her.
No, her biggest pitch to be President is she is qualified and in her serving in the role of Vice President the most qualified.

@jrpsaki The issue of "side-stepping" the Vice President is in doing so it will rend the party in ways we cannot calculate.

Let me explain what that means. President Obama handily won re-election in 2012 when the entire media/polling saw him losing.
Why because 2012 demographics had shifted. If they were 1996s- we would have had a Pres Romney.

The demographic shifts are causing havoc in polling, and modeling.
