I think he needs to choose a WOC as his VP.

There’s LOTS of talk on Black Twitter about Kamala Harris as his VP.

Stacey Abrams would be good too. That said, he's not really struggling with the black vote. He's going to struggle with the progressive wing, that's why I think Liz might be a better strategic move. Plus, she could probably deeply influence the direction his administration would go in considering she has actual plans for things.

EDIT: He'll also struggle with Hispanic and Latinx voters due to Obama's deportations. So, maybe even Julian Castro?

He’s promising to sign an EO to protect DACA workers. Young Latino voters mostly voted for Sanders based on healthcare, per exit polls.

I like Castro, but Biden has pretty much said that he’s going to choose a female VP.
