3. no political experience
poor public speaker.

I love her, but there's nothing to recommend her for that particular job.

8. She doesn't lie like other politicians
That's a headstart on some others on that V.P. list. A presidential ticket that people can trust has to be important.

10. Because she's not a politician
which is a drawback when you're trying to hire someone to be a politician.

14. Not all politicians lie
Obama needs to select someone trustworthy and honest, especially as viewed by the American people, with special emphasis on foreign policy. I think that Biden's stock is on the rise right now.

With respect to Caroline Kennedy, she's obviously not ready to run for V.P. now. Perhaps if Obama becomes President she could get a job somewhere in his administration to get a great start in politics and think about higher political aspirations later in life.

4. But she's on Obama's VP selection committee
Nobody on a candidate's VP selection committee would actually choose themselves.

7. Obama: "Ha! I'm no longer the most inexperienced candidate in this race!"
Edited on Wed Jun-11-08 08:26 PM by Occam Bandage
CK is great. CK would be a great Representative. CK is not a good VP candidate.

12. Cheney was a six-term Congressman actually
Cheney was elected to the U.S. House of Representatives from Wyoming; he was reelected five times, eventually becoming House Minority Whip.

21. And her experience is? She is a philanthropist and except for dealing with the City of New York
with an educational program of hers, she has no other experience I can think of to select her as a VP pick. Do you know something I don't know?

25. She's got the right personal attributes
sweet, intelligent and sincere but no experience and I think she'd hate the scrutiny of that whole deal. She's so private.
