Should Biden drop out?

CNBC talked to presidential scholar Meena Bose about next steps for the Democrats if President Joe Biden withdraws from the 2024 race. Dr. Bose is professor of political science, executive dean of the Public Policy and Public Service program, and executive director of the Kalikow Center for the Study of the American Presidency. “The vice president is the logical choice, obviously,” said Dr. Bose, who noted that Kamala Harris has already been vetted, and the fundraising war chest that the Biden campaign has amassed in the current election cycle would transfer to her if she took over the ticket.

Understanding What Vance Does and Doesn’t do for the GOP Ticket

Lawrence Levy, associate vice president and executive dean of the National Center for Suburban Studies, talked to News 12 about the selection of Senator J.D. Vance as former President Donald Trump’s running mate in the presidential race. “It’s a little surprising that he didn’t try to expand his base a little bit because it’s almost certain that the people who are going decide this election, our moderate middle of the road, suburban voters, most of whom are unhappy with Donald Trump after having supported him in 2016. J.D. Vance does almost nothing to build those bridges in some circles. Actually instead of a bridge builder, he is considered a bridge burner.” Lawrence Levy is available to speak with media - simply click on his icon now to arrange an interview today.
