Mad Professah is surprised to not see our favorite, Gov. Ted Strickland (D-OH) on the list, or Markos Zuniga's fave, Gov. Brian Schweitzer (D-MT). I think a Governor should have an edge over a current Senator.

I only add, he should not take anyone one loyal to HRC, as they are as much of a problem as she is.
How about Senator Patty Murray?
I want Gore. Gore doesn't want it, but if Barack can convince Gore this is the best way to serve his country once more at this time, Obama/Gore would be unstoppable.
Two statesman with huge respect around the world leading our nation.

I'm a Janet Napolitano fan. Big fan. I also think Washington rep Adam Smith is a terrific candidate, but no one is talking about him. Have you ever seen him push back against bullshit? He's a pit bull.
I don't think he should pick another sitting senator, no matter their credentials. We need all our seats to get progressive legislation passed.
Henry Ford Jr. could be a great VP
