Biden Picks Kamala Harris For VP … But It’s Maya Rudolph Who Is Really Winning!

Finally, Joe Biden has picked his VP running mate and it’s the one and only Kamala Harris! Of course, timelines are ecstatic that a woman, who is of African and Indian descent, will be on ballot come November. But, it’s not lost on folks who the real winner is … Maya Rudolph!

After weeks of anticipation, Biden announced the news on social media Tuesday afternoon.

I have the great honor to announce that I’ve picked @KamalaHarris — a fearless fighter for the little guy, and one of the country’s finest public servants — as my running mate.

He followed up that tweet with another one praising Harris for the work she has done as Attorney General.

Back when Kamala was Attorney General, she worked closely with Beau. I watched as they took on the big banks, lifted up working people, and protected women and kids from abuse. I was proud then, and I’m proud now to have her as my partner in this campaign.

And the response was overwhelming hype! Folks hit their timeline with excitement for Kamala.

This is historic. @KamalaHarris as a vice presidential nominee is just a continuation of Black women walking into their power.

All jokes aside, adding Kamala to the ticket is monumental! And our future VP is honored to be chosen for the role…

.@JoeBiden can unify the American people because he’s spent his life fighting for us. And as president, he’ll build an America that lives up to our ideals.

I’m honored to join him as our party’s nominee for Vice President, and do what it takes to make him our Commander-in-Chief.
