Obama/Edwards for President 2008

[Mortos]

I don't really care who is prez and vice prez of these two but I have been wanting to see this ticket since early last year. I think the two would present a formidable front against the republican onslaught that is sure to come.

Obama\Edwards

or

Edwards/Obama

Changing America for the Better

[brentspeak]

1. Edwards is not going to be anyone's VP running mate

He already was a VP running mate, three years ago.

[yardwork]

14. Why wouldn't he be willing to take it again?

Unless he's the nominee, I think that Edwards would gladly take the VP spot. Absolutely. It would put him in very good position to run for president again in 4 or 8 years, and he's still a young man.

[Skidmore]

2. Absolutely.

[never_get_over_it]

3. I doubt very seriously that John Edwards

would run for VP again.....

[Mortos]

5. I think he would if he has a good chance of winning

and I think this ticket would be a winner. They all say they have no interest in the vice presidency when they are running for President but when push comes to shove, I don't think many would refuse it. Plus, springboard to the presidency.

4. Nice thought, but no.

Edwards was our nominee in '04 and didn't add a lot to the ticket (if he were top of the ticket, maybe, but not as a vp). Also, in elective politics Obama actually has more experience than Edwards and people say that Obama doesn't have enough--but I think Obama needs to go with somebody with more stature and experience maybe Biden, Richardson or Gen. Clark.

[Mortos]

7. Ummm, is it me or didn't Biden and Richardson

just collectively draw less than 3%?

Their experience didn't seem to result in alot of support in Iowa, or anywhere else for that matter.

9. How does Obama, who's only finished his third year as a senator...

have more experience in elective politics than Edwards, who's already served his Senate term, and has been through a presidential election?

[phillysuse]

11. General Clark has said he will not be anyone's

Dick Cheney.

[saracat]

6. NEVER. Edwards would NEVER be Obamas running mate as VP.

[Mortos]

8. and you know this how?

[brentspeak]

10. Why the heck do you think Edwards would want to be a VP candidate again?

?????????

[saracat]

12. JMHO it would be an insult to consider him as number to to a neophyte. Whatever.And I do like Obama.

but not enough to have hima as first choice!

13. BEEN there, DONE that.

[Mortos]

15. So you supporting Clinton

because we need a change...if you don't subscribe to the been there done that philosophy

[WinkyDink]

16. In English that would be? I'm supporting Edwards for PRESIDENT. Follow the point.
