21. Which is why she needs (or even Bernie needs) a great Vice President choice

The perfect Vice President would pull many of those voters back in for the general election. If the nominee is Hillary and she picks another Joe Lieberman or John Edwards then she will be a tough sell in November. She doesn't need a Joe Biden for the ticket because she has experience and Joe was picked for Obama because Obama needed experience to balance the ticket and he already brought excitement to the ticket.

For Hillary, she needs a Julian Castro or Cory Booker. Both of these men bring excitement to the ticket. They are young, progressive democrats and they also appeal to minority voters. Castro has serious appeal to Hispanic voters and Booker was able to bring high voter turnout to his Senate special election race in New Jersey because of his popularity.

You put either of these candidates on the ticket and it's a total win.

And no, not Bernie Sanders. I adore him but I think he would be useless as a Vice President. I'd like to have a VP that could feasibly run after Clinton serves her 2 terms (or Sanders serves his 2 terms) and I think Bernie could do more good for the country fighting hard for us in the senate. If it means anything if Bernie gets the nomination I wouldn't want him to pick Hillary (I'd still go with Castro or Booker although I think he'd be considering Warren too).
