Thread opens with examples of VP political race to the bottom and degenerates into race to the bottom of another sort, complete with two-man circle jerk.

What, so what if he's not exceptionally charismatic, he could be a brilliant VP for all I know. Or is being a bit boring now on the same level as being an anti science bigot

The Vice-Presidency does not require brilliance.  It requires patience.

Whenever you hear someone appealing to their views, you may be assured to a good amount of certainty that you're hearing a fallacious appeal to authority.

The founding documents and the founding fathers lend an immense amount of stability throughout the centuries. Whatever the disagreements are in US politics, the buck usually stops at the founding fathers and their documents.

The ideals expressed in our documents are beautiful things. The practice is obviously imperfect; we obviously still have a long ways to go.

The bizarre part, to me, is the thinking that implies that because these men had these grand ideals on some subjects, everything they thought was golden. It wasn't, and even they themselves recognized it (hence the amendment process for the Constitution, f'rinstance).

All giants have feet of clay. Those Americans who fetishize the Founding Fathers, however, overlook that basic fact of humanity.
