He can't realistically pick Bernie either. The optics would be horrible even if it would satisfy some of the twitter crowd.
Biden needs a high minority voter turnout on election day to win. The smart move is to go for a woman of colour who leans a bit more to the left than Biden does.

Warren is +3 on favourability. All of the candidates listed were seen favourably and Warren was the lowest. But she isn't hated (at least at this point). She was also the best debater of the bunch in the Democratic primary if that warms your cockles.
