The report cited three people “familiar” with Harris’s decisions in saying they two will appear together at a rally.

“It’s a fascinating pick that really has some people scratching their heads,” said Bret Baier of Fox News.

“I think it raises some questions about the Jewish vote and perhaps how afraid the Democratic Party is,” a reference to Pennsylvania Gov. Josh Shapiro, who is Jewish, and was not selected.

Fibis I am just an average American. My teen years were in the late 70s and I participated in all that that decade offered. Started working young, too young. Then I joined the Army before I graduated High School. I spent 25 years in, mostly in Infantry units. Since then I've worked in information technology positions all at small family owned companies. At this rate I'll never be a tech millionaire. When I was young I rode horses as much as I could. I do believe I should have been a cowboy. I'm getting in the saddle again by taking riding lessons and see where it goes.
