Who is Tim Walz, Kamala Harris' pick for vice president? (www.bbc.com)

As a coach at Mankato West High School, Mr Walz helped build up an American football programme that led the school to its first state championship.

He also earned plaudits for agreeing to be the faculty adviser for the school's gay-straight alliance at a time when homosexuality was largely frowned upon.

He first ran for office in a largely agricultural district that spans across southern Minnesota, which is fairly rural and Republican-leaning.

But Mr Walz campaigned as a moderate who cared about public service and veterans' advocacy, leading to an election upset.

To be a young president, you have to be super charismatic. I'm kind of over the charismatic part and want them to be boring and stable who want to do good things. True, they're not young, but I'm cool with old, boring and being consistently for the people. Aren't you over all the drama too? Young also means more drama. To have a woman and a pretty progressive ticket with the other option as Trump, we should be dancing in the streets.
