The Case For Governor Tim Walz By Upski
By William Upski Wimsatt
As Midwesterners, we believe Tim Walz should be in the first tier of consideration for Vice President. Governor Walz uniquely compliments Vice-President Harris’s strengths. He has a strong progressive record, authentically speaks to key Midwestern and rural voters, and is an extremely skilled messenger and tireless campaigner and surrogate against MAGA. This makes him a devastating counterpoint to JD Vance while not creating new divisions or liabilities for the President Harris ticket.
Walz delivered for Minnesota working families with the strongest track record of accomplishments of any Democratic Governor – by far --see his unparalleled “Minnesota Miracle” record below. And his commitment to “Make Minnesota the best place to raise a family” aligns with VP Harris’s agenda around the caring economy, protecting reproductive freedom, mitigating gun violence, strong public education, child tax credit, universal school meals. Governor Walz accomplished this agenda in a purple Midwestern state.
Walz is the ONLY candidate who would both bring extensive Executive and Congressional experience. It’s important for a VP not to have to learn either executive management or DC on the job!
Walz has a humble Midwestern rural background: A former high school teacher and football coach, he has 24 years in the army national guard. He grew up in a small town in rural Nebraska, attended a regional branch of a state college, and previously worked in agriculture and manufacturing. In congress, he represented a deep red district in Southern Minnesota for 12 years. He knows rural America intimately.
Walz has extensive military experience. He is one of only two sitting democratic governors to have served in the military, and the highest- ranking enlisted soldier to ever serve in Congress, and serves as commander-in-chief of the Minnesota National Guard.

Wes Flexner BSA Hip Hop Reviews: Questlove's Hip Hop is History
Ahmir Questlove Thompson wrote a book detailing the first 50 Years of Hip Hop. Questlove’s book: Hip Hop Is History.
Ahmir Questlove’s Thompson is the drummer for the Roots. Do you have a favorite Roots song? I’m biased towards the Roots song, The Next Movement. I find some of the lyrics empowering.
The Roots are headlining the Essence Festival at the Superdome in New Orleans as I type this review….
Questlove is the bandleader during the Tonight Show with Jimmy Fallon. Excuse me, Questlove is the music director for everyone’s dream late night show. Every time I look at this……I’m still impressed.
Questlove directed the Summer of Soul. Summer of Soul won an Academy Award in 2022 for Best Documentary, won a Grammy for Best Music Film and won Sundances Top Jury Prize in 2021.
Ahmir Thompson is a best-selling author for Mo Meta Blues, Music is History, Creative Quest, and The Rhythm of Time. He was nominated for A James Beard Award for somethingaboutfood.
Regardless if your favorite Roots joint is “The Next Movement,” “Clones,” “The Lesson Pt. 1” or another song, I wanted to remind everyone what the band sounds like who are running things in 2024.
This year the Roots have headlined Root’s Picnic festivals in LA, New Orleans, and of course an upcoming Roots Picnic in their native Philadelphia.
I was advised I shouldn’t quote Rappin' Duke.
Did I mention Questlove curated the Grammy’s 50 Year Hip Hop Celebration?
