I agree that Ben isn't exciting and doesn't really speak leader. I am torn about this guy because I am a Christian man.
The country needs a somewhat Christian leader to bring back Christian values. Ben fills that need for me.
I am torn on this.
Thoughts?
He’s a Solid Middle of the Road candidate.
He’s likable enough for the majority of the base. Even if he’s not considered “Ideal”.
Rhetoric wise he hasn’t been super extreme. So he’d probably be better suited to trying to start the arduous task of stitching the country back together domestically. Including extending olive branches to whatever would be left of the American left.
The VP role is as much glorified diplomat to foreign powers, State Governments, and Federal Agencies as it is anything else. And that’s something that needs to be factored in any choice.
Personally I wouldn’t prefer him in that role. Though I also wouldn’t be terribly surprised if he ends up there.
