Who do you want as a Vice President?

[zanne]

I've been thinking about this more and more lately. Do you have a "dream ticket"? I have an Obama-Hillary or a Hillary-Obama fantasy for my dream ticket.

[SharonAnn]

1. Wes Clark

[flvegan]

2. RFK, Jr VP to my man DK.

[Mr. Ected]

3. Gore/Clark

The Dream Ticket of dream tickets.

[kerstin]

22. Funny you should mention that.

A couple of weeks ago I had a dream that Gore announced his candidacy for the presidency, and that he was selecting Wesley Clark as his running mate! What’s odd about that is that the only thought I’d given to a running mate for Gore (who I’m set on, obviously) had been Obama. Clark I simply don’t know very much about. (Granted, I know even less about Obama – I simply was thinking in terms of winning tickets.)

What has impressed me about Clark has been his base of supporters and their unabated enthusiasm for him.

Now I guess I have two reasons for finding out more about him -- the loyalty he inspires (and, yes, the dream).

Incidentally, Gore seemed preternaturally sober and serene in the dream (similar to when he appeared before Congress).

4. Obama/Webb

as in Jim Webb.

[movonne]

7. I just went back to look at the senate sell outs on this fisa thing and

I saw Jim Webb (VA) name on that...it this the same jim webb you want of vice pres???

[porphyrian]

5. A Democrat. Basically any Democrat. Unless, that is, the off chance of a third party wins...

...and they are more progressive than our current Democratic party, then they don't have to be a Democrat, but they do have to vote with the Democrats when Congress needs them for a tie breaker.

6. Gore-Kucinich nt

8. Wow--you are a dreamer!

Nice dream, though.:-)

[LiberalEsto]

25. You may say I'm a dreamer,

but I'm not the only one.

[DefenseLawyer]

9. Whomever Mr. Gore chooses will be fine

Even Hillary.

[NV Whino]

10. That's not a dream ticket

that's a nightmare.
:hide:

[BlooInBloo]

11. Clark would be an excellent VP choice for Gore.

[theNotoriousP.I.G.]

12. Edwards/Richardson n/t

[LSK]

13. Obama

[Fleshdancer]

14. anyone not named Cheney

It's difficult for me to go any further than that. The Democratic presidential nominee could choose the ghost of Anna Nicole Smith and I wouldn't complain a bit.

[Reciprocity]

15. Gore-Hillary I miss the good old days when we were at peace with the world.

[OnceUponTimeOnTheNet]

16. Feingold.

The bulldog to not let sleeping dogs lie. This Administration Must be held to account.

[NeedleCast]

17. Me

Hey, it's a dream ticket, right?

[Mojambo]

18. I think Richardson would thrive in such a post. n/t

[Blue Belle]

23. Me too...

especially if it's Gore/Richardson.

[Toasterlad]

19. I'm Hoping It Won't Matter.

Hopefully, after Cheney leaves, the VP will go back to being the same non-entity the position usually is. I'm tired of having to guess which is the smart evil and which is the stupid evil.

[quinnox]

20. Clark would be a good VP

for Hillary, he has the military guy credentials. Might attract some support she wouldn't get otherwise.

[MrSlayer]

21. Gore/Clark or Clark/nearly any Democrat.

Gore/Clark is a landslide winner. Clark/any Democrat is too.

[RFKHumphreyObama]

24. Edwards-Obama

[Odin2005]

26. Obama-Edwards.

Obama-Clark would also be nice.

[tammywammy]

27. Richardson

Obama/Richardson

[ThomWV]

28. Wes Clark or Bill Richardson

Both would be very good strong Vice Presidents.
