I'll add to Sherlock's question. What about Kamala Harris?

I had thought first of Geraldine Ferraro but couldn't remember her last name and then I got to thinking that maybe I didn't understand the question anyway.

Right there with you, oldbroad! I left out Kamala only because she ended up being VP, but questioned it just the same. wave
