    I would love Andy Beshear to be the VP. He handled the Covid pandemic awesomely in KY and has been doing a lot of things for greener energy / extreme weather responses. Also, he values education and universal preschool. The only thing I fear is that if he does become VP, KY is going to choose a conservative governor that undoes all he has done.

      I suspect that the primary concern is whether a VP can bring a few more voters along in a swing state.

      I would rather Beshear too, but mostly because I’m less worried about getting Kentucky having a Republican Govenor than I am about Arizona Senator Kelly getting replaced with a Republican Senator if Kelly becomes the VP pick.
