Obama-Clinton situations mirrors the Randal-Rebecca flap on Apprentice 4
Remember when the very first African American winner of the Apprentice, Randal Pinkett, was, in a never done before move by Trump, asked to share the title with 23 year old Rebecca?

Remember how he had 5 degrees, had his own business, and won more challenges but America wasn't ready to see poor lil Rebecca lose?

And remember how when Trump put Pinkett on the spot, he politely said, "This is the Apprentice, not the Apprenti..."

And with that statement, Randal Pinkett went from being that "lovable guy" to the most hated man in America.

This situation with Obama and Clinton is going to play out the same way. Obama is clearly winning, but he will be asked to share the title with Clinton. A ticket with Clinton as VP is not a winning ticket! While the reverse could work, the fact remains that Obama is winning so on principle it would be wrong to put him at the bottom of the ticket.
