You must appear to look at other economic regions of our country, for a broader representation.
And, of course a 'swing state'. Here is what I smell.
Ohio. Sherrod Brown. I love him. But I do believe the Clinton's and corporations would love nothing more, than to get him OUT of the senate, and into a roll of little importance, unless we lose a president.
Same thing with Bernie as a VP. We need him in the senate if he's not going to be president, though I think he has a fabulous chance as the days 'tick' by.
Hillary wants someone like Bernie to represent us?
How can they do that as VP??? They won't be representing us anymore with their votes! That is EXACTLY THE MAKE UP THE THIRD WAY WANTS. Get the liberals out of there. Take one, and say it's for us Bernie supporters. What has a VP ever done over the years, worth giving up a liberal in a senate seat? How can a liberal stand with her in a rose garden, pumping war, TPP, and other bad policies she supports?
(I say 'pumping war' due to the 100 million given by mid east leaders to the Clinton Foundation, therefore unable to represent us anyway!)
Don't be fooled by a 'VP pick'.
GO BERNIE - ALL THE WAY!!!

That is where the 100 million should have gone, into the U.S. bank account. Does Hillary have a large family that is constantly deployed or will be? Look, the mid east money went to their for profit foundation. So I hope Hillary and Chelsea are prepared to fight! They got all the money! This is a national disgrace!

(3,133 posts)While she could pick another woman, that would piss off the men. She won't do that. A 'girlie' ticket won't fly for a first time female prez. Just ask the men. I have.

I don't really get the Julian Castro idea either, seems inexperienced to me as far as having a resume to assume the Presidency.
