Even I like Josh Shapiro, and my list of liked Democrats is a short one. The word out is that Kamala will name Shapiro as her running mate. However, Shapiro will be a problem in retaining Arab voters, since Shapiro LOVES Israel. Not hard to believe, but Wikipedia is already cleaning up Shapiro’s entry. It would likely be bad for Kamala when Arabs learn that Shapiro volunteered to become a member of the Israeli IDF. So, Wikipedia is contemplating removing this information from Shapiro’s page. Can’t let the Arabs find out the truth.
Considering she is picking her VP on Tuesday in Pennsylvania, I think it’s a good bet.
How do you know this is being contemplated? The info is there as far as I can tell.

God revealed this information to me, and asked me not to reveal its source. Pray and you may be given access. Seriously, I got it from an Israeli source, probably the Jerusalem Post. Too lazy to provide a link, but Shapiro did indeed inquire about joining the IDF which is a splendid group, none of whose generals wear skirts or dresses. And, Wikipedia is likely following other leftist publication, cleansing their archives of negative article about Kamala.
The same information is available at Zero Hedge which I recommend you read often. Notice Shapiro’s political answer to his Jewish volunteerism. It’s as obnoxious as the one I gave you in the first paragraph of this post.
Kelly or Shapiro are by far the best options!
A lie, again.
The old man isn’t aware every entry, change, addition, etc., is logged and recorded for all to see.
same with Harris
Zerohedge, of course, is flat out pro-Russian propaganda. You can learn all about it…on Wikipedia?
Of course, he was another criminal. See a pattern yet?
and his dad, former Soviet-era Bulgarian Ministroy of Foreign Trade official
Always the same…doesn’t even take effort.
Zero Hedge is a source of Russian propaganda. Heard that before. It’s the same lie that Hillary tried to foist upon the public about Trump. Same with Hunter’s laptop. It just doesn’t work anymore. Zero Hedge publishes stories the left doesn’t like and cannot refute, so the left attacks Zero Hedge. Yes, Wikipedia and others are cleaning up their archives, removing what might be embarrassing or harmful to Kamala’s campaign. They will of course fail. Kamala is `eminently unlikeable, incompetent, and is part of a failed administration where she was IMO the most failed individual of all. Veep is as far as sleeping your way to top can go.
another easily verifiable lie.
The most consistent thing on this board is you lying in every post.
You’re losing.
Bikki, I see fear in your post. Kamala is going to beat trump. He is the most unpopular candidate in our lifetime. While I am disappointed in Harris being at the top of the ticket…I wanted an open convention which I think would have actually been big for the Dems. I don’t think it would have been a negative. Harris choosing her VP today and it not being Shapiro is not one I like.
I am quite pleased it’s not Shapiro, being one who thinks we should 100% abandon Israel and cut all funding of any kind, immediately.
I thought it would be Shapiro. Guess they were worried about the anti Israel vote in Michigan and elsewhere.
Warden, abandon Israel, seriously? This is a bad take. Shapiro should have been her running mate. He carries PA. I think this guy does not move the needle at all.
This shows me that Kamala has a major ego. She did not want Shapiro showing her up. He was the only choice. I think some people complicate things. This was one thing that did not need complicating. Pick Shapiro - that is all you needed. Very disappointing pick IMHO.
Yes, I 100% believe we should abandon Israel in all forms…arms, money, attention, all of it. Israel is an apartheid state and I give it zero personal support.
If you want to once again cater to AIPAC, sure. Israeli embassy, joined IDF, supported PA’s anti-boycott law against Ben & Jerry’s and called it antisemitism, etc…
Young people are done with the Israeli hold on US politics. What you boil down to ego, I suggest was a very keen choice as to not cow-tow to AIPAC. Walz was a good choice, imho.
The word on the street is that Shapiro refused Kamala; Shapiro is smart, loves Israel, and did not want to make a career ruining decision. He’s a smart guy, one whom I admire, who decided against hitching his wagon to a person of dubious intellect who has no business running for president. Shapiro didn’t want to lose.
Ok. I am not even going to justify what you are saying. The day this country stops giving to Israel will be the day I leave this country. If Israel did not exist then the Middle East would be a complete mess. I am sorry but that is the most ignorant post. Right up there with storm fronts post.
What amazes me is people like you really have no idea what Jews have been through. If you did this type of comment would never be posted. Palestinians don’t want peace. They want to run Israelis out of that land and kill them off. These are facts. You can post everything you want on here but now that I know your thinking respect for you is gone.
Bikki, stop with the Kamala is an idiot. You’re above that. If she is an idiot then what is trump. It amazes me you support a man who has been given everything in life. Pretty much everything he touches turns to shit. Good businessmen don’t file for bankruptcy multiple times. I don’t want to hear that is good business. That’s what crooks do. He cheated the system.
Bernie and Warren were pushing for Walz big time. I think that tells you what you need to know. He’s not a centrist Democrat, if there is such a thing anymore, pushing for policies in the middle.
Youth vote squashed Shapiro even though he’s popular in PA.
Indiana, this pick had to do with one thing. Kamala knows that Shapiro is more qualified to be president. She has seen what happens when you give someone like Shapiro (jd Vance) the top bill. She was worried he would take some of the juice. I think this is a terrible pick but in the end won’t make much of a difference. This is Mike Pence for the left.
I had no problem with the Dems getting rid of Biden. Where I have a problem is we as Dems are being force fed Kamala and now her terrible decision of a VP. There is no way she wins an open primary against newsom, Shapiro or even Kelly or Brashear. I was willing to give Kamala a chance but going with walz was a terrible decision. Trump is on the ropes and she went with the one guy who is a bad choice.
This is like going into a draft and hearing a gm say we went with upside over a sure thing. Shapiro was a sure thing…Kamala fucked up. I am disgusted. For those who have been loyal to the dem party this is a major let down.
Handing me a shit sandwich and telling me it taste good is not the way to go.
Playing devil’s advocate for a minute. If you are a Dem with Presidential aspirations, do you want to hitch your ride to Kamala?
Newsom is being smart and biding his time. If Trump wins, he’s positioned well to win in 2028 or 2032. Why take the risk now with 3 months to go and a 50/50 proposition.
I think all the folks you mentioned are smart to sit this one out if they have presidential aspirations.
