Yeah, I honestly don't know who Bernie's VP pick will be, but my best guest is that they'll be at least two of the following: female, POC, young. Nina Turner happens to check all of those boxes and is beloved in Berner circles(I certainly like her). His VP pick is a bit more fraught, both because he pins a lot on his VP being willing to rip up Senate rules, but also because he's 78 years old and would be more likely to be his successor. Not even just if he dies: he may not have two terms in him. The point of electing Bernie is that he belongs to this leftist movement, and the hope is that he would use his presidency to advance leftist politicians.
I don't think Warren would be a great VP pick, because she's not much younger than Bernie and there seems to be some animosity between them now(and much of the difference between the two has been Warren all-but-yelling she wouldn't rock the boat to the political establishment). Plus, she would probably be more useful(and influential) in the Senate.
