Reply #9: Great News [View All]

This is great news. Bill Richardson probably wont be the nominee but he will be a great VP pick. This is because he has experience in government (Clinton Cabinet), experience at the U.N (U.S. Ambassador), comes from Mid-West state (2008 battleground), is currently in politics (i.e. Governor) unlike either Clark or Edwards, and has an hispanic heritage that could help the Democrats in 2008.

Richardson to my knowledge has also spoken out about the Iraq War.

I would happily endorse Richardson as VP to Gore, Clinton (if she has to be the nominee) or Obama.

Of course this is all dependant on him being scandal proof and therefore not liable to GOP attack.

GORE' 08

GORE/RICHARDSON - Both anti-Iraq War, both men of experience and one from South and the other Mid-West to offset the impact of McCain (Mid-West).
