The title of a famous essay by Jonathan Swift and that of a Tuesday New Republic article by Brian Beutler each starts with “A Modest Proposal.” There are, however, many differences concerning the two pieces. One is that Swift’s was a satire, whereas Beutler’s is a fantasy. Another is that pretty much anyone who somehow took Swift’s proposal seriously would find it horrifying, while Beutler’s suggestion -- that the 2016 Democratic ticket should consist of Hillary Clinton and Barack Obama -- will horrify mostly conservatives (and opponents of dynastic politics who already were upset over the prospect of a Hillary v. Jeb race).

I think they meant Michelle Obama.
I don’t thing Baraq would want to invest the time in being VP, but Moochelle Robinson-Obama is available.
Imagine the hell that would be serving as Hillary’s VP. Probably no more more nauseating than being Hillary herself.

I would say he’s not Constitutionally qualified, but that kinda went out the window where Democrats are concerned...
Stupid fantasy. No person ineligible to be president may be vice president.
That the complete insanity of the left is already on display to this degree indicates the soggy depth of their desperation.
Don’t let the Constitution get in yer way.
The author mentions Baraq in the title..
Mooch won’t take orders from her husband let alone some white woman.
Belch!!!!!!
He’d get to play his brackets full time and take a vacation away from his brackets, so why wouldn’t he?
In 1992 Morton Downey Jr. was publicly urging George H. W. Bush to select Ronald Reagan as his V.P. for this same reason.
Exactly so, but obviously, few people, especially Dem voters and writers, understand plain English and don’t give a damn about laws and the Constitution.
After two years, he could whack the VP and step in to his place.
Make that 1988.
May have a better chance of winning with that one! Go for it, Hildabeast!
No. their time to really cash in is coming. the Obama Foundation will dwarf the Clinton Foundation in funding and corruption.
I stated several years ago that it will be MooseShell, besides it couldn’t be Dumbo because in the event of the Presidents death Obama as VP could NOT assume office.
Horrible as the thought of having him anywhere near the Oval Office is, there’s something weirdly funny about the idea of him being Hillary’s Joe Biden.
