because it would seem inappropriate to ask her to accept a VP slot at this juncture. Ignoring whether or not it would be politically wise...

First, I don't think she wants that job. Second, I think she wants nothing much to do with the race for the White House. About all I think she'll do is endorse the nominee, and maybe someone she'd like to see as the nominee.

Or, it shouldn't be, anyhow.

I think we need to focus on just one thing - getting out the Democratic vote. Let the right-wingers do whatever they wish, and simply counter their nonsense with good sense.

Go after Trump and let the chips fall where they fall.

all of which are even more critical to get to now. And we know she's work well with whoever was president. The only part I don't like is that a female VP probably means a male president. I'm okay with that but I'd prefer that Hillary's great battle against bitter misogyny cleared the way for our first female president.

She'd serve and serve well. I'd like her in domestic policy. That's where her big plans are.

But I don't see this ever happening nor can I imagine Hillary even wanting a VP spot.

That being said, I really would like the next Democratic President to tap HRC as a resource--cabinet position or policy advisor or (here's a thought) a Supreme Court Justice. Talk about Republican heads exploding!

Whatever. Hillary Clinton has been a public servant throughout her career and has a wealth of knowledge and experience. It would be foolish for any Administration to allow a resource like that to remain unused.
