If at the convention in Denver(which will likely be when the nomination will be decided) Obama wins the nomination If In order to secure the support of Hispanics do you think he would have to pick Hillary for VP.I have gone on record believing Obama/Hillary Is more likely than Hillary/Obama. Obama did better than earlyier states with Hispanic(and his victory In Colorado and possible Victory In New Mexico suggests In some states he Is making some inroads) but you can't deny he Is doing not great with Hispanics.
and nor do I THINK he's going to pick her-I see Edwards as a perfect running mate. OTOH, Clinton (if she's the nominee) will NEED Obama to take the VP slot or get blown out in November-I don't see the opposite as the case though-does that make sense?
I am not for Hillary as his VP If he previls In Denver.But we can't deny he needs to make more inroads to Hispanics.I don't think It IS neccessary a racial thing but loyality to Bill Clinton. And with John Mccain as our opporent It will be a fight among Hispanics.
I would love to see ObamaEdwards ticket but the Idea of a ObamaRichardson Ticket could happen to help bring Hispanics In the general Election with Mccain.
For Hillary her real VP would be Bill.The actual VP would really be In Name only.I will bet It will be Bayh.I would be shocked If She were to offer It to Obama and almost as shocked If he would accept.
