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.
ReplyDeleteHow about Senator Patty Murray?
ReplyDeleteI 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.
ReplyDeleteTwo 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
