Joe Biden’s campaign staff is making plans to introduce his eventual vice presidential choice to key party constituencies. Donors are readying finance events featuring the still-unnamed running mate — “date and time to be announced.” An in-person reveal is being discussed.
This kind of approach — being openly meditative about the issue at hand, with a penchant for missing his own deadlines as he mulls his options — is in line with how Biden has made other big political choices throughout his career.
“He knows when what he’s decided really matters,” said Sen. Chris Coons, D-Del. “He takes time to make those decisions well. He doesn’t struggle to make those decisions; he makes them in a series. He listens to the relevant experts. He consults the relevant data.” State Sen. Annette Taddeo of Florida said she and other lawmakers and donors had expressed concerns to the campaign about the possible selection of Rep. Karen Bass of California, whose record of travel to Cuba as a young activist and respectful remarks about Fidel Castro when he died could alienate voters in Miami.
Sen. Kamala Harris has faced sharp questioning from some Biden supporters about whether she would be loyal to his political agenda — an issue that has played out publicly and created fierce backlash. Andrew Bates, a Biden spokesman, said that Biden “bases consequential decisions on being informed and hearing from a wide variety of credible experts,” arguing that approach stood in contrast to President Donald Trump’s decision-making style.
