Clyburne and Biden made a deal, an the whole community knows it. Biden absolutely needs to keep his allies on side.

Yes. I thought you were suggesting it would be Clyburn himself. But apparently Biden is planning to honour his deal with Clyburn and appoint a black woman. I’ll be ageist and say it should be someone that won’t qualify for seniors discounts anytime soon.
 
omg or Stacey abrams.

she’s kinda be perfect for all the wrong reasons but of course would never get past the manchin

Could they sell Katie porter as black? She’s a bit green but would actually be a great pick.

Tough sell
 
Man, porter really would be a great pick. Whip smart, effective communicator, she’s a lawyer who clerked, she has a great sense of justice, has dedicated her career to fighting for the rights of the average American, and has lived at both ends of the American spectrum - from the farm to Harvard law.

Give her the nom.
 
This is a pretty interesting breakdown. I heard a couple of Jordan Peterson interviews from a couple of years ago before he got sick, and while I disagreed with some of what he said I did feel like he was a smart guy.

Have not listened to this interview. These clips though, really are like meaningless word salads. It's very strange.

He's always been world salad man.

Not to be snobby but anyone well versed in mythology and literary history could spot his con a million miles away from the start. But he knows just enough and is a good enough talker that he can dupe people into thinking that they are dumb and he is smart.

To a certain extent yes, he always spouted a lot of pseudo-intellectual nonsense and I was never a fan, but he is a smart person.

These clips are embarrassing though, he's either not back to full health yet or just way off his game. I get that he has to tailor the message for his marks I mean fans who generally lean right, but yeah, I would highly recommend staying away from discussing climate change for a while...
 
Listened to Jordan Peterson (hack) interview Stephen Fry (genius) recently and Peterson was just vomiting's out random buzzwords, it was cringe.
 
He speaks confidently in short sentences, and uses important sounding words. There’s appeal to that if you align with his philosophy
