Well, there’s the answers. The DNC has announced they will proceed with the roll call vote for nomination next Wednesday [link]. That puts Kamala on track to announce her VP selection around this weekend. And the cherry on the cake is Eric Holder doing the vetting for the Harris campaign.
Right on track, the process seamless. Almost as if this was the plan all along.

July 22 (Reuters) – Former Attorney General Eric Holder and his law firm, Covington & Burling LLP, will conduct vetting of potential running mates for Vice President Kamala Harris’ campaign for the U.S. presidency, according to two sources familiar with the matter.
Harris is running for the Democratic presidential nomination after President Joe Biden announced on Sunday he was stepping aside.
A campaign spokesperson for Harris declined to comment. (more)
The top list of the VP possibilities are:
• Pennsylvania Gov. Josh Shapiro, • Michigan Gov. Gretchen Whitmer, • Arizona Senator Mark Kelly, • Kentucky Gov. Andy Beshear, • North Carolina Governor Roy Cooper, • California Gov. Gavin Newsom, • Illinois Governer JB Pritzker, • Maryland Gov. Wes Moore, and • Transportation Secretary Pete Buttigieg.
Which one do you think Obama will select?
My bet is on Mark Kelly.
(Politico) – Delegates to the Democratic convention could begin voting on the party’s presidential and vice presidential nominees as early as next week, under a draft plan released Monday by the Democratic National Committee.
The proposal is scheduled to be taken up on Wednesday by members of the DNC’s Convention rules committee.
Such a timeline, if it were implemented, could result in Kamala Harris, President Joe Biden’s endorsed successor, selecting her running mate by the middle of next week.
Harris, who announced her own bid just 24 hours ago, has already effectively cleared the field of would-be challengers. She’s drawn a cascade of endorsements, from former House Speaker Nancy Pelosi to every Democratic governor in the country, many of whom have their own national ambitions.
In a call with reporters Monday night, the DNC previewed their nomination rules, which they pledged would represent a “transparent, swift and orderly process,” said DNC Chair Jaime Harrison. The DNC committed to a virtual nomination process back in May, defending against any Republican-backed legal challenges that might keep them off the ballot, particularly in Ohio.
“We will deliver a presidential nominee by Aug. 7 of this year,” Harrison added.
The DNC laid out three qualifications to be considered for the nomination: A candidate must file a formal declaration of candidacy with the DNC, meet party and legal qualifications to be president and secure at least 300 delegate signatures, no more than 50 of whom come from one state delegation. The DNC said it would provide a delegate directory to those candidates who were interested in running for the nomination.
The nomination process, depending on how many candidates qualify, will be completed between Aug. 1 and Aug. 7. (read more)

It’s all a performance folks.
Please remember, it was always going to be this way.
In the meantime, the Executive Branch of the U.S. Government is running on autopilot.
