“I love being a member of Congress, but if asked, I would consider it an honor,” Demings said.
Demings revealed what it is about Biden that makes her want to help fight to get him to the Oval Office, touching on an issue important to the state’s LGBTQ Democratic caucus conference that brought her here and talking about what she feels she could add to Biden’s campaign, whether she’s on the ticket or not.
