Moore

What happens if Biden is convinced not to run and the democrats are unsure of Harris. The best approach is to have an open convention and allow for all comers. The best of the flock is a relative unknown Wes Moore the newly elected governor of Maryland. He is the first Black governor ever elected in Maryland and only the third Black governor in the US. He graduated from Johns Hopkins University and received a masters degree as a Rhodes Scholar. He is a Afghan veteran who became a New York investment banker. He has published five books and was CEO of the Robin Hood Foundation. He is 45 years old and has executive experience as a CEO and a governor. His father died from illness when he was three years old and his single mom raised him and his three sisters. He has seen life from both sides. He identifies as center left and is called a social moderate and a strong fiscal conservative. He is for increasing law enforcement and is tackling crime in Baltimore. He supports trade school education programs but opposes charter schools. He started a program that allowed high school grads to work one year in public service to earn money for college. He pushed for plans to cancel student debt up to $20,000. He supports the new green deal and a ban on the sale and possession of guns. The two big problems he will face are the lose of the Biden war chest and lack of name recognition. The party would have to be solidly behind him and if he won the nomination they would be.
