than five months away from the presidential election. >> and the big question is, who will joe biden ask to be his vice president? kamala harris may still winds up on the vice presidential ticket. you may remember she had a strong start to her campaign but it quickly faded and she bowed out before the iowa caucuses. the "times" reports it is because of her political experience compared to other black female candidates. stacy abrams' highest job. she served as president obama's national security adviser but has never held elected office. biden has made it clear, he plans on choosing a woman as his running mate. the list has featured names such as amy klobuchar and elizabeth warren. so joining us now to size up where kamala harris stands is chronicle insider and abc7 news contributor, phil, always a pleasure having you on. >> it's interesting.

one of the first questions is why is this such a big story? it is interesting. the fact is joe biden is 77 years old and people are really concerned, who will pick up the mantle if something happens? so there is an incredible at of emphasis on who the vice president is. like we haven't seen before. the second part is, joe biden is going to need some key voting blocs around the country. it is probably going to be another one. those close elections. what he really needs is a good african-american turnout and a good young vote turnout and suburban women vote out. the question is, which of the female candidates can deliver? and right now, the pundits and everybody is working on the odds of and it kamala harris floats to the top. one of the big reasons is that she was in the presidential race. she's already been tested. she's been on thescreen. and what she shas probably the ability to do what you most want in a vice president. which is not make a mistake out of the gate.

>> all right. this goes into my next question. because there have been names of we will of color tossed around in recent months. atlanta's mayor for one. how many does biden need a woman of color? how much of this plays into the fact all of the george floyd news is happening right now? >> well, the george floyd news is happening now. where is it going to be in november? oh the summer? it is still going to be somewhere. will it be at the forefront. remember, we just came out of the coronavirus a couple weeks ago. that was the big story. okay. we will of color? yes. he needs to pick a woman. and it's right. when we bring in kamala harris, okay, she didn't d that well among african-american voters in the primaries. joe biden did better than her. what does she bring? a national presence shelf brings a touch on the youth side. d ss flip side is that californa

will vote for joe biden anyway. so that's why you have this other look and say what do we have in middle america and southern states? somebody from there. you mentioned a lot of names but one name that is coming up on the back side is val demings. a florida congresswoman and the former police chief in laenlds, florida. that's someone who could be very interesting. she's run for congress so she's been out there. keep an eye on her as well. >> let's talk about two white women. senator klobuchar, elizabeth warren. where do they stand? why are they no longer considered in contention as highly as kamala is? >> that's because what we have is in contention. there is no real scoring here at this point. people are being vetted. they're checking out people's finances, checking out the past and such. right now, amy klobuchar is from minneapolis. the attorney general there.

that's not necessarily looking good right now. elizabeth warren, very vibrant, very energetic. did the national stage. she's been in communication with joe biden repeatedly where they're sharing progressive ideas. i wouldn't rule any of them out. the fact is a couple weeks to go. it is plenty of time for everybody to make up their minds. we'll hear more and more about this vetting process. do you know something? it's clear that joe biden is the nominee. what else do the democratic pundits have to talk about exempt the vice presidential pick? keep your eye on it. >> always a pleasure. you can read his articles in the chronicle every wednesday and sunday. president trump is planning to hold his first rally simpson the coronavirus pandemic hit. it would be the first large scale events as well but there is going to be a catch for those who want to attend. we hear about the significance of the date of the first rally. >> president trump is getting back to his preferred routine. spending a weekend at his golf
