How do you get 32 years from two presidents?

And Hunter adds no new voters.

With all due consideration I personally do NOT see any GOOD VP choice on the horizon.

What does the dog say?

Go out every day with the goal to talk to somebody about the great turnaround we can see in this country if people unite behind Trump. Enough of this DIVISION caused by everybody blowing his or her own horn about sex or ethnicity. WHAT and WHO is BEST for America? That should be the only consideration.
I do NOT see ONE SINGLE FEMALE in this country at this time tough enough or talented enough to take on the burdens of the presidency, and believe me, I have looked.
It used to be in this country that we were all Americans first. People ASSIMILATED. The Democrats have succeeded in driving divisions between us with all this ethnicity hogwash and now it has become a sexuality problem. What will it be next?
I’m sticking to my beliefs. The BEST person for the job! Remember the VP is only ONE heartbeat away from the presidency.

She’s a good possibility in terms of having her on a list of possibles but IMO she’s not a good actual choice. From what I know about her, I was impressed of course with her victory in her home state. AND THAT’S IT.

I haven’t heard on single peep from her or about her since she was elected. Not one word. To me, either she is laying way back and learning the insider ropes, which means that she does not know them but is looking to learn them; OR, she is intimidated by the whole DC power edifice. Neither one of those is something or someone whom would benefit Trump, IMO.

I think Duncan Hunter, as posted below, is an intriguing choice.

No no no no no no. She is a Hugh Hewitt GOPe revert in office.

Frankly, I think Trump already owns the great lot of the states.
Sessions is probably the most admired man in Washington for his honesty and clear thinking.
Hunter is a Marine, battle hardened Californian, member of the Armed Services Committee. He follows in the footsteps of his father whom I admired enormously and who should have been, had he not been betrayed, a candidate for the presidency. Hunter, Jr. has shown his mettle by backing the Green Beret against the Obama orders.
Gingrich is qualified on many counts i do not need to list.

Basing the choice of a VP on a state is a pretty poor reason for doing so. Kennedy’s choice of Johnson for Texas was terrible. Look what it got us!

Almost every elected Republican he could pick is a complete jackass.

She is one of them.

She has the likability factor, would score with women. The problem I see is that she is first term senator with little political experience and dealing with hostile media.

WHAT and WHO is BEST for America? That should be the only consideration.

The ability to get actually elected is part of that equation.

I do NOT see ONE SINGLE FEMALE in this country at this time tough enough or talented enough to take on the burdens of the presidency, and believe me, I have looked.

What about Ernst's military record? How many of any other of the candiadtes under consideration can match that?

She will not be Trump’s choice. He will not pick a woman because she is a woman.

Trump has already said the kind of person he would pick.

He said he would pick a person who would also be a great President.

The WaPo wouldn’t have any idea who that would be because they wouldn’t know a great President if they saw one.

If Trump chose Hunter, I might actually consider voting for him. Might. ; )

Please explain! Sessions, Hunter, and Gingrich are ALL highly qualified. What’s your problem? Maybe because they are all three white men you think they’re disqualified?

All three would be good picks. You can add the political picks of Kasich, Rubio, Walker, and even Christie and be solid.

However, the way things have panned out, I kind of am pulling for Ben Carson for the total outsider ticket. Carson helps in Florida and maybe has a chance in helping with minorities.

BTW, if Trump gets the nomination, I'm in. We're talking about his running mate here.

Has anyone squealed since she got in?

No. They continue enjoying the endless supply of slop in the public trough.

Michele Bachmann!! She could handle the whole immigration problem and free Donald up for other problems. Good for the female vote, too.

Allen West comes to mind

Totally agree! Allen West would be a great choice!
