Good question.

Had the teevee on in the background, on MSNBC they were talking about potential VP picks. With Trump the question was reversed from who the candidate would choose to “Who would want that job?”, the implication being that no one with serious political aspirations would even consider the slot.

Did anyone else hear that? Has the discussion of the veep slot ever been discussed in those terms for any other candidate?

Job application

Not necessarily a spurious suggestion:

DU needs a "Big Furry Hat forum".



Pronouncements of absolute certainty abound.

Can’t We Disagree Respectfully

...
The Colorado Democratic Party State Convention was held on Saturday, April 16 in Loveland amid a mix of snow and rain. Let me say from the start that I have friends who are supporting Senator Bernie Sanders. At the precinct caucus, county and Congressional District meetings, there was enthusiasm, respect and courtesy shown to everyone from each side. At the State Convention, the only trait that carried over was the enthusiasm.

Among Sanders supporters from Weld County, they acted just as civilly as they did at our county meetings. But to our left and down the side of the meeting hall, were some of the rudest, most disrespectful people you could have encountered. Many of those seats were held by Bernie Sanders delegates from other counties.

The catcalls, chanting, yelling during Senator Bennet’s nomination speech were very upsetting. Here he stood on the stage with wife and children talking about all the hard work he has done on issues that everyone cares about, and the response was to shout and stomp feet. It was difficult for him to finish in a way that we could all hear. Disgraceful is the word for the behavior of the hecklers. This behavior was certainly not helpful to Senator Sanders but undoubtedly produced a backlash of emotions from other Democrats in the room.
