De Facto Rank Choice For The VP In My Case

Didn't get my first choice for VP who was also my first choice for president, Elizabeth Warren but Kamala Harris was my second choice.   Now watch her get attacked in the pages of The Nation, In These Times, The Progressive, on the Young Turks, Majority Report, etc.  as well as by the fascists. 

I am hoping that one of the things that happens this fall is that Biden and Harris win big enough so they will be able to ignore the play-left and then they pass a progressive agenda which will shut them up forever.  The disaster wrought by the Republicans in all three branches of the government, in governorships and legislatures is big enough so this election could give us the opportunity to make huge changes that will benefit us more than all of the absurd posturing of the play-left over my entire lifetime. The greatest advances in the lives of real people made in the past were not the ones the play-lefties of those periods achieved because they never had the power to make change.   

I also hope that the win is big enough that we can say to the Never Trump Republicans that it was their party and their ideas and claims which created yet another disaster, after the disasters of Reagan-Bush I and Bush II before this one.  That is a serial pattern now, it is the discrediting of the entire thing, especially the romantic ideas about businessmen and their efficiency and wisdom and the private sector and markets.  Trump as Bush II before him should have buried that absurd fantasy once and for ever. 

I hope there is a fast and hard push to expand the Supreme Court and other courts to destroy the stranglehold of Federalist Society fascism in the law.   I would announce right off, after the election that more justices will be appointed and that they will have to have an educational record of understanding mathematics and science to an extent which is pretty much entirely missing on a court whose cases often hinge - or should hinge - on mathematics and science none of them are able to fathom.   I would require any judges or justices to reject the Federalist Society and unitary executive forms of fascism that are a clear and present danger to egalitarian democracy.   I would start out with a requirement that they reject the doctrine that corporations are "persons" with rights enumerated in the Constitution and that money equals speech.
