1. Jason Carter

3. Good suggestion.

[Erich Bloodaxe BSN]

2. B Sanders / B Lee. nt

[Elmer S. E. Dump]

4. Now THAT would be great!

[immoderate]

8. Mine too.

5. Nice thing about Warren - there's your first woman president!

That could take some more wind from Hillary's sails. Not that it's any of my business.

[azmom]

6. That would be awesome. What a dream ticket for this latina.

[LuvNewcastle]

11. Warren is the best, but could we afford to lose

her and Bernie both in the Senate? She would make a great majority leader or whip, and would be excellent at keeping the party focused on financial policy, which I think is the crux of Bernie's campaign.

15. Tough call

[truebluegreen]

16. No, we couldn't.

Warren is better where she is--although Treasury Secretary or Fed chair would be sweet too.

ETA: that would shake up Wall St, verdad?

[LuvNewcastle]

19. She would be a dream in either of those jobs.

It would be worth it to lose her in the Senate if we got her as Fed Chairwoman or Treasury Secretary. At least she's from a blue state, so we would likely get another Democrat in her seat.

18. Good point.

However, while we are dealing in hypotheticals - A Sanders/Warren ticket might give the nation a good liberal smack in the ass and get some serious traction for new, lefter people to run for senate.

We need the seats to stay blue for sure and we need sound thinking in the senate but there are 300 million people out there. There has to be some good eggs that could be elected in that climate that otherwise would be overlooked.

[MuseRider]

7. Agreed with above

B Sanders/B Lee

That would be an awesome ticket.

[LuvNewcastle]

9. I'm trying to think of someone from

the House or maybe a governor with a good record. I'm coming up with nothing right now, except for maybe O'Malley, but I don't know if he would run for VP. We would need someone strong as a running mate because the GOP would have a lot to say about Bernie's age, even though he isn't much older than other front runners. I'm thinking maybe a Gen Xer from the West or the Midwest would be a good fit.

10. Sanders/DeBlasio

[TBF]

14. Not bad - Cory Booker would be an option as well

[truebluegreen]

17. Booker is a self-described New Democrat

--socially liberal but fiscally conservative. I'm not going down that road again, although I like him personally.

[NV Whino]

12. Well, the dream ticket is Sanders Warren

But I'll take Bernie and just about anyone else.

[TBF]

13. Bernie/Julian Castro

He is my pick - period. I think he should be running for President but he's only 40. With the big baby boomer voting block it's wise to run someone a little older for president.

20. Locking thread.
