We've never had a Marine president, but this might be a good candidate. Likely Youngkin will be the Vice Presidential running mate with whichever Rep is fortunate enough to run in 2024.

Lieutenant Governor Sears will take over as Governor and be positioned to make a run in 3032

I'm not a Marine, but I have two Marine sons and I look forward to Sears breaking that barrier.

(CNN)Winsome Sears, a conservative Republican, will be Virginia's next lieutenant governor, breaking barriers as the first female and the first woman of color in the office in the commonwealth's 400-year legislative history.
CNN projected Sears' win over Democrat Del. Hala Ayala, also a woman of color, on Wednesday.

Sears will serve alongside Republican Glenn Youngkin, whom CNN projected would win the Virginia gubernatorial race.

Sears, who was born in Jamaica, is the first Black Republican woman to be elected to the Virginia General Assembly, representing the 90th district from 2002 for one term. In 2004, she launched an unsuccessful bid for Congress against Democrat Rep. Bobby Scott. She is also a Marine veteran, former vice president of the Virginia Board of Education and owner of an appliance business. She is a wife and mother of three daughters. In 2012, her 27-year-old daughter DeJon L'Air Williams and two grandchildren died in a car accident.
"It's a historic night -- yes, it is -- but I didn't run to make history. I just wanted to leave it better than I found it," Sears said before a crowd of supporters early Wednesday morning.




She was national chair of Black Americans Making America First, a coalition that promotes initiatives by former President Donald Trump and has defended him after controversies and racist comments. Asked about her support for Trump, Sears told CNN, "I am an independent thinker" and promised to ensure "more diverse representation is appointed on boards and commissions." She also said she would increase funding for Historically Black Colleges and Universities.
