On Morning Joe today, I think Booker reinforced my theory that he wants to be VP for a Warren

ticket. I will post the video as soon as it is up on youtube.

He wasn't casting himself as "I and I alone should be president and here's why...". He was talking in terms that would qualify him as Warren's running mate, not her adversary. Of course, that is also a good place to groom himself for a presidential run 8 years hence.

He talked about his talent in organizing communities. His message is consonant with Warren and he didn't trash her or her ideas.

I am "self medicating" on this imaginary, ideal pairing for winning the WH. But, lordy, I BELIEVE...

Gotta believe...
