Georgia Democrat Stacey Abrams is on a mission to become vice president. As it became clear that former Vice President Joe Biden would be the presumptive presidential nominee for her party, Abrams went into overdrive to offer herself up as the best option out there. It’s rare to see someone so publicly sell themselves for the job, but Abrams’s desperation for national relevance is her driving force. Her 2018 loss to Brian Kemp in the gubernatorial race remains a thorn in her side. Her unwillingness to accept that defeat, and penchant for identity politics, define her political existence.

They’re also what would make her a terrible, unqualified choice for Biden’s running mate.
