Get ready for the challenging commentary when @JoeBiden announces VP pick 1/10
She will be called too ambitious, not a team player, too aggressive, hard to work for, too progressive, not progressive enough 2/10
If a woman of color, she will be challenged as ‘not really’ or too radical; will be called a token or merely a symbol who can’t deliver 3/10
If a mother and wife, will be seen as neglecting her family. If neither, will be denigrated as not a ‘real’ woman. 4/10
Will be cast as not competent to become president or will be seen as too ready to take over. 5/10
Will be seen as not substantive or too narrow focused or too inexperienced. 6/10
Will be called shrill, too tough or overly emotional and unstable. Will be too nice or not nice enough. 7/10
Her clothes, face, hair, posture, entourage will be subject of endless commentary. 8/10
I could go on, and others can add but @JoeBiden choice will be a strong, capable, articulate, smart, vibrant VP; a true partner who can help us get on a path to build back better. 9/10
So get ready, persist, register, vote and make herstory! 10/10
