Independent presidential candidate Robert F. Kennedy Jr. intends to announce Tuesday that Nicole Shanahan, a wealthy attorney and entrepreneur in the San Francisco Bay Area, will be joining his campaign as his vice presidential selection, according to two sources familiar with the Kennedy campaign's plans.

It sounds like she is about as far left as you can get.

The fact he didn't go with a big name, tells me is luke warm for an "all-in" run.  i.e. a poke in the dim's eye(revenge)

One set of talking heads this morning had Mike Rowe as a possible VPOTUS choice for RFK JR.

That would have been a disaster.

Mike Rowe is a good guy with a lot of appeal.

Yes, he is, and I can't imagine he would want to play second fiddle to a Communist like RFK Jr.

This VP pick has demonstrated that his campaign is not the least bit serious.

....hmmm Tulsi is a popular lady. She's hoping to be on Trump's ticket.  That will be the end of any chance of Trump winning.

If leftist RFK Jr. thinks Tulsi's a dandy potential VP pick, it certainly doesn't say much about her conservative credentials (which are non-existent, by the way).

Nicole Shanahan
@NicoleShanahan
@CBS  just sent this to me:

“I have received a letter from Rep. Ro Khanna, intended for Nicole Shanahan, urging her to step down as RFK Jr.'s running mate. In the letter, Rep. Khanna warns Shanahan that supporting Kennedy could aid Trump's return to the White House and have negative environmental consequences. According to Khanna, Shanahan sought his advice before accepting Kennedy's offer. CBS News plans to publish this story tomorrow morning. If you would like to comment, please note that my deadline is this evening.”

This is my full response to CBS (I want to bring this discussion back to the people, because I am beholden to you the people and not the corporate press):

"In my conversation with Ro he congratulated me on the position and encouraged me to run, stating that every American has the right to run in this country. He stated that we live in a democracy, and it was wrong for anyone to threaten me against running.

Clearly, Ro has changed his stance based on pressure from the party. I hope he understands how anti-democratic it is to ask someone to step down from a race that empowers the American public to make their own decisions.

I am very disappointed that he has been pressured into issuing this letter to me publicly. He could have called me privately. He has my direct line."
