'All stars’: Analyst shares unique idea that could overhaul Kamala Harris’ campaign

Kamala Harris has promised to name her running mate by August 7, but a Washington Post analyst shared a unique idea Monday that he said could be a game-changer — why stop at one?

“Who can deliver a swing state? Who can outwit J.D. Vance in a debate? Who is capable enough to take the wheel someday yet restrained enough to ride shotgun in the meantime?” asked Daniel Pink.

“As Harris ponders her selection, let me issue a gentle warning: These familiar questions frame the decision too narrowly.

“An uncommon candidate (Black, Asian American, female) in an unusual campaign (a 100-day sprint rather than a 100-week slog) against an unprecedented opponent (a thrice-nominated, twice-impeached, once-nearly-assassinated former president) calls for an unconventional approach. Instead of choosing one person, why not pick a team?"

He went on, “At next month’s Democratic National Convention, she could also announce the core members of her eventual government, including people who didn’t get the VP nod.”

Pink contrasted his thinking with Trump’s policy, demonstrated in his declaration at the 2016 Republican National Convention that, “I alone can fix it” — a belief Pink says shows Trump as a “cartoonish megalomaniac.”

In the same cartoon vein, he writes, “Harris could draw a lesson from the best comic books: Fight back with a team. Their five-word promise: ‘Together we can fix it.’”

“Imagine an ensemble of All Stars. She could tap swing-state celebrities across the country, such as Sen. Mark Kelly of Arizona as her potential defense secretary, Gov. Andy Beshear of Kentucky or Gov. Roy Cooper of North Carolina as attorney general, and Gov. Josh Shapiro of Pennsylvania as transportation secretary.”

“... Now imagine this entire crew appearing alongside Harris and her veep choice at the convention, waving together from the stage as balloons descend from the rafters, and then fanning out across the country to campaign for the next 10 weeks.”
