Stop chewing on mom, little guy.

I'm not able to be objective about a Clinton/Warren ticket. For me it is a dream team. The excitement level, and pulling more of the youth Bernie crew would be a plus. Seeing Warren debate Pence, seriously! Yet some of the males in my world think it is too much and that the voting public isn't ready for a 2 woman ticket. Me, I am like RBG, as in her feeling that 9 is an appropriate number of women on the supreme court. Why the hell not? Hillary and Elizabeth are so much more acceptable than Donald and Mike. But I accept, not at all objective on the subject.

I think it's a valid concern, along with "maybe she'd be more powerful in the senate". I'll be super disappointed if she picks Tim Kaine or some other boring white dude though.

This is my fear. Clinton-Warren is my dream team, but I am definitely not representative of the voting public.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.

I honestly believe that Warren is doing a far more important and effective job in the Senate than she could ever do as a Vice-President.

That's also a big thing to consider, yeah.

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb

I think a white man will help the ticket. Maybe Hispanic male. I don't anyone from the house or senate tapped.

I am already excited to vote for Hillary. What I want is for her to pick someone that will excite people who aren't there. I don't know who the best pick is for that purpose. Who does she need more, the left, the youth, the blue collar, the elderly? I have to trust that surrounds herself with people that can answer that question better than I. Does Warren bring as much or more of a downside than an upside? I just don't know.

"There are few hours in life more agreeable than the hour dedicated to the ceremony known as afternoon tea."

I agree with Tom. I think a young male, preferably someone that young voters find exciting would be a good choice.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

100% agreed.

I would just as soon have Uncle Joe stay in the job.

Maybe Hispanic male.

Yeah, my son was discussing that with me earlier. We can't really see the Hispanic vote going to Trump so balancing the ticket that way doesn't gain a lot. He rejects the whole balance ticket thing of course and feels Bernie should get it because he was 2nd choice or whatever. He also adores Warren and said that "might" be enough for him to vote for Clinton but isn't there yet. Gender doesn't mean anything to him. (view of the male youth vote)
