and not a Clinton or Bush. I do like Hillary but I've had enough of dynasties. He's younger and we have plenty of time to get his name out there. I think he'd be a great alternative to Jeb or whomever they put up on the other side. Julian Castro for VP.

I hope he runs. It would be good to have more progressive voices to force Hillary to move left. And he's an up and comer.
O'Malley vs Perry

(63,912 posts)6. I think he would make an excellent VP candidate with a woman running at the top of the ticket.
Hillary or Elizabeth.
He would be very attractive on a ticket with a woman. Very appealing to lots of younger voters and women. He is progressive and not sexist and creepy, like so many republicans who want to be considered.
