I have an idea that I believe can completely ensure a Sanders victory...

15. I think he does need a strong populist progressive VP...

... to protect him from those who might want to try and out a populist if they feel the VP will answer to big money better, in addition to inheriting the task with the same viewpoints and mission that likely might even last more than two terms like it did for FDR to put some huge reformational changes in place. So that would be one requirement. Elizabeth Warren as a woman candidate would also help bring on board former Hillary campaign followers if he were to win the nomination who are feeling very strongly that the U.S. can finally elect a woman who represents half our population but who has never had direct representation for president. I think that drives a lot of those who back the Clinton campaign. By saying that a woman could be first in line to take over in 2020 if he were to step down after one term would be that much more of a drawing card for them to come out and vote for him and not stay home. Perhaps other women can fit this bill too, but Warren seem the best option at this time.
