Sanders/Warren ticket

Normally campaigns try to have candidates from different parts of the country, but in this case the nomination will be so contested that Bernie will want to make the best deal he can--and fast.

I agree Warren would be his best VP choice for that reason, and that reason only.

The Democratic establishment would go totally insane, and Bloomberg might well go third party. I like it!

We’ll see. The money markets predict Bernie will win every primary except Alabama. I want to see the democrats try to take the nomination from him.

You're right. A notable exception was Bill Clinton who essentially doubled-down by picking Tenn's Al Gore, who at the time, was perceived as a Southern moderate in the same mold as himself.

Mini-Mike and Deval Patrick.

We forget how en-bloc the AA vote is.

You heard it first here!
