If he was a nobody he wouldn’t be part of her list. I think you can do better than that.
What does a Kamala candicacy need from a VP, other than an old-but-not-too-old white man who doesn’t say much and doesn’t steal she show but conveys a sense of quiet competence to illustrate a kind of chaperone character for the benefit of older people who want to be progressive but are still basically racist? Not much if you ask me, this is the Kamala show. But having a tough looking mother fucking Astronaut whose wife survived an assassination attempt neutralizes so many Trump/Vance talking points right out of the gate, freeing up Kamala to be Kamala.
This is basically the best formulation of the argument I’ve seen so far. Don’t forget he’s a combat decorated Navy captain too. He has so many lowest common denominator points to reel in both the demographics you mentioned but also casual voters in general who don’t care about policy.
