Carson: Palin on list of potential Trump running mates

http://thehill.com/blogs/ballot-box/presidential-races/279943-carson-palin-on-list-of-potential-trump-running-mates

Ben Carson says in a new interview that former Republican vice presidential nominee Sarah Palin is being considered as presumptive presidential nominee Donald Trump’s running mate, along with a host of the real estate mogul’s former challengers....

Palin, however, last Sunday said she likely wouldn't consider being Trump’s running mate.

"Well, I want to help and not hurt, and I am such a realist that I realize there are a whole lot of people out there who would say 'anybody but Palin,' " the former Alaska governor said on CNN's "State of the Union."

"I don't want to be a burden on the ticket, and I realize in many eyes, I would be a burden," she said. "I just want the guy to win, and I don't know if I would be the person to help him win."


Oh, come on, Sarah. Go for it. Jon Stewart and John Oliver need material, dammit!

if he went to the streets and shot someone. However choosing Palin would hurt even if he likes a little spanking.
