Non-Politico (celebrity) potential VP choices. I'll start...Oprah!
Edited on Mon Apr-26-04 06:53 PM by JanMichael
There's a ton of possibilities. Next!


PS~ I'm assuming that Oprah is actually a Dem. That said she may not be one, she may be of a Reform Party mindset for all I know. Anyone here know for a fact how she leans?

OK, I'll cheat...Tom Brokow!

3. The debates with Cheney would be a hoot.
Jon would tear Dickie a new one.

2. OK here's one
Michelle Shocked. I heard her hammer bush at a show last summer and she's active politically. And she's a Texan.

4. I think she's a tad too far Left for Kerry.
At least that's what I've read.

5. I've seen her listed as a Bushie
But the source I saw didn't say how it came by that, and had some other erroneous info, so I don't know for sure.

Susan Sarandon. Now *that's* a woman we could proudly call Veep.

6. George Clooney hates Bush and is articulate and passionate
he'd be my non-traditional choice.

10. Yeah... she is...
But tries to come off as apolitical (effectively, I would say, given her popularity). How about Michael Jackson... it might be the only way to get some decent press coverage. Paul Newman would be good but he's too old I suppose. Sidney Poitier - another oldie but goodie. Ahhh... I got it... Donald Trump! He says he's 80% Democrat but could have crossover appeal.

11. "Bush... You're Fired"
At least with Trump, we'd have an awesome motto.
