I’m interested to see what lemmy thinks of this, I honestly haven’t kept track of the potential options.

    Mark Kelly.

    Astronaut, has absolutely been an amazing husband to Gabby Gifords, impeccable background that is literally the American Dream, and untouchable character.

    He would absolutely destroy Trump.

      I’ve never heard of him until just now—one glance and he is elite. This is easily the best candidate they could field.

      I’m not even an American and I would be so psyched by a Mark Kelly run for president.

      Then all we would need would be to get Chris Hatfield as or PM up here and it would be an intelligent astronaut super hemisphere.

      And he has a twin with a nearly identical pedigree, it’s insane. But I’d love to see a Harris/Kelly ticket.
