Governor Tim Walz, during a forum at Harvard Kennedy School, clarified that he is not seeking the presidency in 2028 and explained why Kamala Harris chose him for her VP running mate. He expressed a unique role in helping White rural men feel comfortable voting for Democrats, labeling himself a 'permission structure.' Walz also suggested the Democratic Party should organize a comprehensive campaign strategy in advance of 2028, emphasizing the importance of extensive media presence and collaboration among various factions of the party to increase visibility and outreach.
Walz stated he could act as a 'permission structure' for White men in rural America to support Democrats, indicating his appeal in a divided electorate.
Reflecting on past elections, Walz emphasized the need for a collective Democratic strategy for 2028, focusing on building infrastructure before naming candidates.
