  2. Sorry, didn't mean to say that a third party candidate could do AS good as Perot. But there's potential for a really strong showing from one compared to recent years.

    I love how if a debate's getting ugly, Hillary can say "Then why did you donate to my campaign in 2008?"

    He does do many awkward things. The mic tap in the "Jeb is a mess" video always gets me

    Agreed. I think there are a lot of people who are going to vote for Trump or Clinton more to stop the other candidate, and more that will just stay home.

    I just don't see who could actually run at this point and be able to afford and campaign and get enough support to win.

    Seriously, Clinton could just pick Bernie as Vp. This makes so much. They should do this.

    It will never happen

    nope.

  12. It would just be impossible to run a campaign based on taking down Wall Street and initiating campaign finance reform only to partner up someone like Clinton who has been exemplifying the things Bernie is running against

    But then I also feel like it's a guaranteed win for the dems. It's a pickle.

    I feel like a Clinton/Warren ticket would seal the election, but I donno if Clinton *needs* Warren on the ticket to win, and would hate to lose Warren in the senate.

    I feel as though Warren would turn down a VP slot or any position in the cabinet.

    I'd hope Bernie would do the same.

    I will say I give Bernie a lot of credit considering the amount of traction he achieved. As a self-proclaimed Democratic Socialist who for years identified as an Independent, he gained a lot of ground among Democrats and young voters who didn't know who he was a year ago.

    HIllary: "Bernie is right about Wall Street, I'mma let him do all that"
    Bernie: "I'll take it"
    Trump: "I'll lose by record numbers"
    And scene.

    Cruz would have been worse than Trump anyway.

    Hillary is a former republican and is going to be the democratic nominee
    Trump is a former democrat and is going to be the republican nominee

    Big difference being Clinton has a nine years of track record in the senate where she was one of the more liberal senators

    Warren will turn down the Vp nom if asked, and i bet hillary didn't like her (ew) calling her (hill) corrupt

    I think Hillary is willing to put past conflicts behind her if she thinks Warren is right for the ticket.

    I also think Warren's lack of endorsement for Sanders shows she is loyal enough to the party to accept the nomination if Hillary offers it to her.

    I'm just not sure its the choice they are going to make. I feel like Clinton and the rest of the party might think a Clinton/Castro ticket or whatever is strong enough to still beat Trump and let Warren stay in the senate.

    Hillary "needs" white male voters to essentially guarantee the election. VP will be white male from Midwest or South. Maybe a Gavin Newsom to give her campaign a Bernie-like feel.

    Warren as VP is dumb. A waste of 8 years. She's much more valuable in the senate.
