Reply #60: I think Kucinich would locate a provocative veep nom.

[saltpoint]

He'd choose him or her for his own reasons and he wouldn't care if we liked his choice or not, and that's in keeping with his admirably independent streak in nearly everything.

He might choose Elizabeth Holtzman.

Or Ramsey Clark.

Or New York TIMES columnist Bob Herbert.

Or Alex Baldwin (whose columns this past year or so on Huffington Post have been pretty darned good and very darned liberal. He's a Gore Democrat but if Gore didn't run I bet Baldwin would give Kucinich a close look.)

Or Howard Dean. If Senator Clinton is not the Dems' nominee, Dean's hand becomes very free at the helm as Chair, and I could see him joining the ticket with a low-profile interest in future service in an even higher position.

Or Julian Bond. I'd love to see any Republican veep nom try to debate Julian Bond. That would be an evening to remember.
