How he does know it won't be a woman at the top of the ticket, and he the potential running mate?

this isn't like ted cruz annoucing his running mate fiorina before he won anything .

.... but I don't think a lack of confidence would bode well for any of them. Just my opinion.

It is going to be Warren or Harris. IMHO.

I haven't decided if I am running yet

and Obama had little chance to get the Democrat Party Nomination

Some people take their little chance and run with it all the way to the top.

I mean, it would be tough to say, "I really tried to find a woman, but I just couldn't find anyone as good as mister so-and-so."

I really liked this guy when he first gained national recognition, but he's done everything he could possibly do to come off as a phony. Why even say something like this? It seems condescending and forced. I don't like the idea of women being given consideration for positions of leadership just for the sake of PR, especially when there's plenty of women who are far more qualified for than he is and deserve the opportunity just based on their credentials. Are we supposed to fall over ourselves for King Man because he's promising the throw a bone to women?

I don’t think anyone is supposed to be fallening over themselves, just learning about the candidates trying to avoid getting sucked into the message of the day coming from the right wing machine.

He didn’t volunteer this out of the blue.

Seems like he's pandering to me. Why not look for the best running mate? If it's a woman, great. If it's a transgendered midget with a mohawk, great.
