As good as a first impression that Obama made upon me, I didn't see him as having any kind of chance unless he balanced his ticket properly: his relative youth and lack of foreign policy experience could be used against him as effectively as his race. The very first article I read about Obama's possible running mates contained Biden, and had me stating that if he didn't choose Biden, I wouldn't be able to take him seriously.
Shapiro was my first choice as Kamala's running mate, being an Easterner to balance her being a Westerner. But since her husband already put a Jew on the ticket, I switched to Kelly -- until I learned that he is also a Westerner. Walz's military background makes gives Kamala commander-in-chief chops; and his being a mid-Westerner literally splits the difference!
