We are the base!

to the legacy of a Hillary Clinton administration.

If they were, he'd be the front runner.

trying to stamp it out with the truth.

To me, it's the folks who show up every election and support the Democratic candidates. It's not people who turned their noses up at the party until now.

seem to have already elected HRC. They maybe setting themselves up for disappointment........or not.

Julian Castro....and I hope it is him....

That would be like blowing yer brains out. With the rest of the candidates it would be more like self flagellation for 4 years.

I thought to myself that that seemed like an odd pick.I was wrong then and could be wrong this time too. Now I'm going to have to go find what the reasoning was for picking Biden.

Obama had it but just having biden on the ticket was helpful in getting those who liked Obama but only wish he had more experience.

to describe someone like Biden as "a regular guy".

I think Biden put people on the fence but wanting to vote for Obama, at ease.




*regular guy (as implied by tweety etc) is just near the edge of being racist..imo

It would nullify her power and ability to institute the change in the financial sector.

when we keep the White House and take back the senate.

I think Warren would make a FABULOUS Senate majority leader. Now all she has to do is want it.......

But as Maryland is probably safely blue in presidential elections, his coattails might not be sufficient in a close election. If the Republicans lean toward picking a total maniac (Trump, Carson, etc.), it won't matter. But this isn't 2008, and we're not coming off 8 years of a disastrous Republican administration, so the 2016 Democratic nomination is not the sure path to the White House it was in 2008, even though if common sense were to prevail, it should be.

Castro is a little green, and Biden's foreign policy experience would be missed in the VP slot. Besides, there's no way he'll energize enough Hispanics to carry Texas for us--not yet, anyway.

I'm sure both Sanders and Clinton are thinking very hard about possible VP selections. If they're smart (and they both are), I think they'll both keep their mouths shut about it for the next 6 to 8 months.

And I would lay really good odds that the Clinton campaign is thinking the same way.

preferably black.

I think her VP will be youthful, male and very possibly Hispanic.


I would not be surprised to see Warren and Sanders IN HER CABINET, though.

A Castro brother will sew it up for her...

I do not vote for VP.

He is very happy in the Senate representing Vermont and chose to run specifically due to the need to get the issues out. Veep would be a deadend for Bernie.

It would symbolize centrists and liberals both being represented.

The problem for liberals would be that the VP has almost no power.

but most importantly, we can't lose a single dem senator. not a one. elizabeth and bernie would have to stay

Maybe she should put some principles on the ticket as well.
So we can all sign on.

Everyone knows the VP is an impotent role. They have no influence on policy. Honestly if Sanders agreed to be her VP I'd lose a ton of respect for him. She wants it so bad she's gonna have to do it on her own. She'll have my vote only because of how bad the Republicans are. I'm sure OMALLEY would be glad to take the spot.

or Clinton/Rice. I like Susan Rice, and she has incredible knowledge and skill in a world where everything is global and digitized. At the very least I hope they both make cabinet positions--Rice for SoS, Warren for either Labor or Commerce.

We have so many awesome Democratic women! It's their time to shine.

She'd be a good pick for any of them.

If Sanders loses, he needs to stay in the Senate. We also need Warren in the Senate. Now what it seems like you are saying (correct me please if I am wrong) is that we need to put someone who is more progressive on the ticket with her. I totally agree with that. The problem therein is that would be Clinton's choice IF she were the nominee. As the nominee she doesn't have to do jackshit (thought it would be foolish for her not to). She's going to listen to her advisers and test which way the wind is blowing if she is the nominee.
