Trump 'all for the concept' of female running mate
The Hill ^ | 08/13/2015 | Jesse Byrnes

Businessman Donald Trump, who has been atop polls in a crowded field of Republican presidential candidates, said Wednesday that he would consider a female running mate.

“Certainly, I would consider a woman as a running mate,” Trump told the Chicago Sun-Times' Michael Sneed. “I am all for the concept," Trump continued, adding, "It would have to be the right person and I’m not going to go into who that would be right now."

He also declined on CNN's "The Lead" to name potential female choices for a Trump White House ticket, saying, "It would be a great honor to have a woman as a running mate."

“Having a woman as a running mate is certainly a consideration. A very good consideration," Trump told Sneed. "It would be something I would strongly consider.”

Bill Bennett was having apoplexy on his show this morning when he realized a Trump-Oprah third party ticket might actually win.

It crossed my mind too. There would be so many heads explode amongst the PC and establishment herd.

While we’d love to see this ticket, Trump was just being polite. He isn’t going to have a female running mate. I want him - if he gets the nomination - to pick Ted Cruz. Sarah as much as I love her, has too much baggage.

Her direct involvement with this EPA debacle will come in handy too.

Of course a Cruz/Martinez ticket would even be better.
