Why a Biden-Klobuchar ticket can beat Trump

the assumption that the African American electorates trend the same everywhere doomed us in 2016. Detroit and Milwaukee in particular were keys to the margin of victory, and there was clearly an enthusiasm gap among black voters in those cities in 2016 vs. 2012. The same approach that works in South Carolina and Alabama doesn't work the same in the Upper Midwest, where the potential black vote is often younger and more alienated.

I think Amy Klobuchar is an excellent senator, but her support among black voters isn't as strong even in Minnesota. These factors should be weighed in building a ticket.
