POLL: Do we want Elizabeth Warren as Clinton's VP choice (by primary candidate)? [View all] democrattotheend Jun 2016 OP

No (Bernie Supporter) bigwillq Jun 2016 #1

Agree. A senator can get more done than a vice-president. JustABozoOnThisBus Jun 2016 #5

Like Senate majority leader. Imagine the hell she would bring upon the GOP tonyt53 Jun 2016 #27

There are a lot here who wanted her as SBS's VP choice. Bobby Kennedy can fill Warren's Senate seat. TheBlackAdder Jun 2016 #40

I didn't want Warren as Bernie's VP either. bigwillq Jun 2016 #41

You haven't been paying attention to Joe, I see. Or ... NurseJackie Jun 2016 #11

So you can't name a thing. No surprise cali Jun 2016 #15

I was going to say it's ceremonial with a young pres like Obama, but then JFK... yurbud Jun 2016 #23

The fact it is a ceremonial post should make it highly relevant to you. JonLeibowitz Jun 2016 #13

It will be tough to call Bernie fringe after this primary cycle. yurbud Jun 2016 #25

Why? democrattotheend Jun 2016 #31

Warren is a fiery advocate. She can have a decades-long career in the Senate... Hekate Jun 2016 #32

She didn't have the courage to either run or support the progressive candidate. Kentonio Jun 2016 #33
