I'm a Virginiana Independent Voter. Tim Walz is the Perfect Choice. He Fights for the Working Class. He has Great Policies & his relationship with Governors around the Country will help push policy on the Local Level when Congress is on their B.S.. Let's Go Vote 🔵
It's true. Kamala Harris was a good addition to the Biden Ticket and Tim Walz is a good pick for the Harris Ticket. Trump had 4 years as President already, Walz has a great record for both the economy and the people of Minnesota. Joe Biden was a surprisingly Progressive President. When people ask themselves about the past 8 years before they go to Vote, they will find that they have more in common with Harris/Walz than with Trump/Vance. Racism can only carry a candidate so far before people start to ask about their own situation and whether it has to do with brown people or with policies from a political party. I think that many Voters will decide that, with Harris/Walz the economy will strengthen, our infrastructure will continue to (finally) get the attention it has needed for decades, that rich people and our largest corporations can afford to pay Taxes like everyone else and that the working class deserves to have a bright future.
I’m so energized and filled with hope and happiness for our country! Harris and Walz will be the antidote that will wake up and cure the ails of the unhappy MAGA crowd. They will finally walk away from the Trump cult when they see that Harris/Walz are really working for ALL Americans! 💙💙💙💙🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🥳🥳🥳🥳
When the draft is ended or made fair and default male genital mutilation isn't a big money maker we can talk. Until then men and women will never be equal.
Well! Just because someone that was never voted for picks another socialist as a running mate doesn't mean they give a crap about the American people. If we vote her in we will get the same thing that is destroying this country like high inflation from bad spending, war, open borders, high fuil costs, High housing costs and men in women's sports. I could go on but I have a feeling it wouldn't matter how bad of a Jobe they did you would still hire them. Sad!!!
Why do you think it took all the protesting in the first place? Look at how much of our resources still went to Israel EVEN BEFORE OCT 7. This is not a win for Gaza or the anti colonial cause. Jill stein is the only candidate to do that

This may be one of the few calls Democracy Now did not predict correctly. They seemed to anticipate Kamala would select Shapiro. Walz is a pleasant and welcome surprise! It's about time.
With income inequality so pronounced, this is a good pick. We need a more progressive economic agenda and tax code too, although I'm not holding my breath. Republicans will do all they can to block anything that'll bother the rich. I'm hoping Harris keeps Lina Khan over at the FTC too. She's doing a great job with antitrust laws! This looks way better than what the GOP is offering, which is nothing but tax cuts for the rich.
Taxes what .how about more illegals that get food stamps housing bank cards license for nothing and didn't even live here how about men in women sports bathroom lockers children get sex change at 12. Why do you want this for America and Americans let me know so I can understand
Thanks, Kamala, for choosing Walz as your VP and not Shapiro. Now I can with all my heart vote for you. Because I would not for a VP who compared protesters against genocide of innocent Palestinians in Gaza as KKK folks. We protesters are not Kkk, not antisemitic, not proHamas. WE ARE ANTIGENOCIDE WHEREVER IT OCCURS IN THE WORLD!!!!
Still have to win the Senate and House. Then we will see if the Democratic Party really possesses some will for the types of reforms that would clearly siphon the white working class votes away from the GOP permanently.
Harris absolutely made the right choice, this could be a turning point in the history of our country, I think it's that big of a deal. Shapiro would have been a disaster. What a stunning turnaround from the brink of doom a month ago to this. Of course we still have to navigate the minefield of Biden's final months in office but I for one feel 1000 times better about it now.
It's not anti-Semetic to reject Shapiro. He was anti-Vax and anti-Mask, and had a sexual assault scandal that he mishandled. But we definitely need someone who isn't going to advocate for the status quo in Israel or who is a democrat with staunchly conservative views.
I mean that term is being thrown around in such a self defeating way these days. Antisemitism largely needs to be folded back into the racism ruberic...the fact that it gets so much political power relative to other forms of racism, is in and of itself, racist.
Agree, especially this election cycle when women all over the country are in a fight to protect our bodily autonomy! It’d be a greatest irony that a WOMEN president will signed an abortion rights into national law😂
I understand your excitement, but remember that being a member of a marginalized identity group doesn't guarantee progressive views and actions (Nikki Haley, for example, is also a woman). Ultimately the most important predictor of what a candidate will do is what they have done.

Amy- you look SO happy announcing Tim Walz’ as Harris’ VP choice- he’s a down to earth progressive from the Midwest- brilliant choice- labor women public education and the uncommitted who are looking for leaders who will truly lead the US to end the Israel-Gaza War. Walz has shown a sympathetic heart and ear to the protesters and the plight of the Palestinians. Great choice Harris!

@@CB-vg1wqIsn't that what Hoe and Komala said almost 4 years ago? We all see how that all went. Komala should step down and let this Walz guy lead the ticket. The Democrats would have a way better chance.
Ultimately, Shapiro would not have had Kamala's back in the long run. He's too much of the same-old-same-O... Walz is such a breath of fresh air... Walz is 100% in step with where Kamala wants to take America... Am so glad that Kamala kept Shapiro out of the final selection... Thank you Kamala! She made a choice that is very broad and not so narrow in focus concerns choosing a guy that is from a swing state... America is in for major evolution as a world power.
Ever since President Biden, humbly handed the torch to Kamala Harris, l have wanted to just hug him and thank him for his selfless service to our country and our democracy. 💙🫂💙 And now I just want to hug and laugh and dance with Kamala Harris and Tim Walz all the way to the White House 😂
He didn't hand it. He was forced and she wasn't even voted for. It I was a Democrat I would be mad for not giving the democrats a voice on who they want. I would have voted for Walz way before Harris. The democrats talk about supporting democracy but then they do the absolute opposite. Sad day for our country.
Dang! John Nichols is fantastic here--great summary of ALL the major talking points, but also he's so succinct Amy almost didn't have to ask questions, lol. Soon-to-be President Harris made a fantastic choice here. Not the 'safe' conservative choice; instead a bold optimistic choice that unites the party & dare I say it reminds us this country has a future worth dreaming & hoping about. Go blue, go Harris/Walz!!!!!
Wow, I was really only planning to vote for Kamala as a risk mitigation thing - Vance needs to be kept far from power. This pick makes me feel a lot better about the choice!
I thought that since Bernie wanted Walz, he wouldn't get picked. Pleasantly surprised

If I were in another state, it would be Harris-Walz all the way
If ignorance is bliss you must be in heaven😇
@@jitkafarina3841, I know I'm doing it right when I get insulting troll comments
@BartAnderson_writer Why doesn't the Green P arty run more local candidates, instead of an unwinnable run just every 4 years?
@@eh3477 US politics is rigged against 3rd parties. The point of campaigning is to spread the word and criticize the Dems from the left/env.
Agree it would be nice to have more 3rd party candidates in local races. I hope there will be more as movement matures.😊
Oh, thank god. This was the correct choice. Kamala all the way, baby.
Thank you for avoiding clickbait, whoever named the video. Straight to the point.
First intelligent thing the D's have done in years. A VP pick that isn't a corporate flunky.
a gutsy pick ... amazing actually ... love it
🎉🎉🎉BRAVO TIM WALZ 🎉🎉🎉
😅 Fox News has to realize the second honeymoon phase is going to last the next 50 days after Kamala was said to wear off 😅so we're winning🎉
Right trump is winning so Big nobody wants commie kamala
Harris owns the stock market crash yesterday
No you're not😊
@@TimChaney-lr8qu stay home Ken weirdos going to make you pay their jet fuel and lawyers fees 🤑
@@wisdomsleuth77777 You miss the largest single day drop in the stock market yesterday?
Or was that Trump’s fault?
60 years vs. 78 years old. When people say he is old...look at your candidate.
Coach Walz vs Couch Vance
She may just be "FOR THE PEOPLE" afterall... 👏 😊 💙
🎉 Yay!
❤great choice
I think he is a great choice!
Excellent choice! Finally some good news! Tim Walls a man with common sense and a man with values! Finally a progressive! Tremendous!
Ballz to the Walz excited 😆
I think, given the circumstances and how it could have gone, this is a good choice and gives me hope. Cautious hope, but hope none-the-less.
From someone outside of the US who will also suffer the consequences of this election if Trump wins, Thank You Kamala! For all you US voters, please keep encouraging everyone to make sure to register and actually go vote for this pair, despite whichever restrictions your local Republicans may have put in place. The rest of us depend on you to make this happen ❤
Best thing to happen in DC since Bernie
We certainly hope this is the case ❤
You see what happened to Burney lol.
Let the sun shine again.
i'm so incredibly relieved that she didn't pick shapiro.
Same.
Why is that? I'm just curious because I liked Shapiro as the VPN pick.
@@stephaniehurst7297 I liked them all. Shapiro has a great future.
I was just glad she didn't pick Mayo Cheat.
@@StephieGsrEvolution who is that lol?
Great choice by Harris. I didn't think Walz had a chance.
Believe that at? She didn’t make the choice. Just another a puppet for the puppet masters.
Me neither but I'm crying happy tears for America!! 💙🩵 Harris/Walz 2024!
@@rhondapotter6989
Why do you want this for America and Americans. These people want more illegals that get free medical housing bank cards license food stamps.Then you have men in women sports bathroom lockers wants only electric cars no oil or gas
@@rhondapotter6989 you’ll be crying alright. This administration is ruining America. Sad!
Yay! Walz can "bring it".
No Shapiro baggage. KY keeps their much needed Beshear. No loss of an AZ Senator.
Chasten won't be attacked non-stop while his & Pete's young family needs a safer start.
Plus, Walz can stand up against an exploiter
of hillbillies, in my opinion. 💙👏
Hillbilly exploiter! Multimillionaire, autocratic hillbilly exploiter!
I was convinced she was going to pick Shapiro or maybe Kelly; I'm pleasantly surprised!
Only one reason she didn't pick Shapiro cause he's Jewish and she doesn't want to offend the Palestinians protest. That's why .she's dirty
Same
@@Trumpulator let me ask you why you want more illegals that get free food housing bank cards on your taxes.Why men in women's sports inflation gas food tripled why please I have to know why you want Harris and this guy to turn America into a third world country
WHY
I thought Walz was an absolute pipe dream. It is a stunning development
Kamala so much smarter than Biden or Hilary Clinton combined. She recognizes the rage of the younger gens towards the Dems over Gaza. So pick the most progressive. Incredibly smart
Kamala's husband Doug is a strong supporter of Z-i-o-n-i-s-m. Kamala herself stated in an interview with Katie Couric, that she will always support Israel, no matter what.
@@gabbycarter965 Yeah, and w the monstrous AIPAC leaning on you, you better say it. Kamala recently said, “this war has to end” and “we can’t be quiet anymore”. Sorry you Republikkklans are so big mad
@@gabbycarter965She wasn't at the speech Netanyahu made to congress, but did meet with him later. She told him to get a ceasefire and that we could not turn our eyes away from the devastation and death. She said she will not be silenced. I think he got the message and he didn't like it so as long as Joe is president, Netanyahu decided to escalate. Netanyahu may be in for a surprise. Joe has to draw a line somewhere.
great coverage John and Amy..thank you
Amy- you look SO happy announcing Tim Walz’ as Harris’ VP choice- he’s a down to earth progressive from the Midwest- brilliant choice- labor women public education and the uncommitted who are looking for leaders who will truly lead the US to end the Israel-Gaza War. Walz has shown a sympathetic heart and ear to the protesters and the plight of the Palestinians. Great choice Harris!
I can actually feel excited about voting for President vice president this time around.
Harris demonstrates why our election season should be substantially shorter.
It's a good day today...though I'm still in utter shock!
Walz - the dad America needs. 💙🇺🇸🙏🏻
Glad is NOT Shapiro. End of the Orange man😊
End of weird. Let's Walz into the White House
Love your pun ! A very appropriate one. Let's create a blue wave and vote!! Toss Trump and the MAGA movement to the curb and start working for America.
@@CB-vg1wqlike you have for the last few years?
@@CB-vg1wqIsn't that what Hoe and Komala said almost 4 years ago? We all see how that all went. Komala should step down and let this Walz guy lead the ticket. The Democrats would have a way better chance.
100 % BET! Kamala Harris &Tim Walz winning 2024. 🥰🥰🥰. YEAH🌹🌹🌹. Both of them were born same year 1964. ! CONGRATULATIONS 👏👏👏💯💯💯
Ultimately, Shapiro would not have had Kamala's back in the long run. He's too much of the same-old-same-O... Walz is such a breath of fresh air... Walz is 100% in step with where Kamala wants to take America... Am so glad that Kamala kept Shapiro out of the final selection... Thank you Kamala! She made a choice that is very broad and not so narrow in focus concerns choosing a guy that is from a swing state... America is in for major evolution as a world power.
Very good excellent 🎉🎉🎉
Ever since President Biden, humbly handed the torch to Kamala Harris, l have wanted to just hug him and thank him for his selfless service to our country and our democracy. 💙🫂💙 And now I just want to hug and laugh and dance with Kamala Harris and Tim Walz all the way to the White House 😂
He didn't hand it. He was forced and she wasn't even voted for. It I was a Democrat I would be mad for not giving the democrats a voice on who they want. I would have voted for Walz way before Harris. The democrats talk about supporting democracy but then they do the absolute opposite. Sad day for our country.
Tim Walz is a champion of and for the common people!!!
Pleasantly surprised! Fingers crossed we got this. We can protest and critique once Dems are in power, but this was the right choice.
Dang! John Nichols is fantastic here--great summary of ALL the major talking points, but also he's so succinct Amy almost didn't have to ask questions, lol.
Soon-to-be President Harris made a fantastic choice here. Not the 'safe' conservative choice; instead a bold optimistic choice that unites the party & dare I say it reminds us this country has a future worth dreaming & hoping about.
Go blue, go Harris/Walz!!!!!
Wow I am very pleasantly surprised. Definitely the best pick.
Wow, I was really only planning to vote for Kamala as a risk mitigation thing - Vance needs to be kept far from power. This pick makes me feel a lot better about the choice!
YAY!!!! Yay yay yay yay yay yay YAY!
Walz was one of my picks. I'm glad the VP stayed away from problematic picks. Didn't know Shapiro fixed his mouth to compare protestors to the KKK
Elizabeth Warren is the most progressive woman senator. Not Harris. We dont know what she is. But WALTZ IS A GAME CHANGER.👍👍👍
There’s so much joy in the country today .
Woohoo!
💙 Now to do the work that when they win, the win sticks. So great to see Harris choose such a joyful yet proven running mate.
And then keep on their *sses!
Walz is great. He was a LUNCHROOM MONITOR so he handle anything.
I cannot stand Kamala Harris, but boy do I love Tim Walz. This was the perfect pick. His speech was incredible and he's a fucking TEACHER.
Now let’s do our part and VOTE! 💙
AND VOLUNTEER DAMMIT!
VOTE ❤️
Shapiro reminded me of a Joe manchin kyrsten Sinema JD Vance yeah didn't trust that
Walz is "America's Dad" and a man of the people.
I live in Minnesota & Walz has turned this state into an absolute dumpster fire 😢🙏
Excellent choice! Trump and Vance don’t have a chance.
Chant it out loud! Trump and Vance, don't stand a chance!
Especially, if we fight hard and vote!
🤡
Y'all are delusional. This nomination is a gift to Trump. Kelly or Shapiro would have been a real problem.
@@Kootenay613
Dream on, old yellow stain can’t even debate Harris. 🐔
@@Kootenay613 don't overdose on the copium.
As a retired HS teacher I applaud the choice of Walz for vp. He might teach the republican candidates a thing or two about american history.
No, he can teach us about Communism.
@@Lp78ChMaybe you should try explaining to us what you think Communism is.
Thank you, John Nichols, for your perspective.
What an empty vacuous conversation.
Definitely better than Shapiro, so I'll take it.
Kamala did great. I was sweating, for a minute. She can not elect for vice a guy who wasn't going to respect her. Good we love Tim now
