I still love the Trump and Christie stage presence

Just let that sink in a minute.

Huh. I’m surprised at all these conservatives who reject Dr Carson with a one-word post.
I’ve liked Ben Carson for a long time, and hoped he would do better in the primaries. Ran out of money/support I guess.
I certainly hope he’s Trump’s Surgeon General at least. I would vote for a Trump/Carson ticket.

Newt would be a fine VP.

Carson, not so much. Too meek, not sufficiently verbally precise. He might be good in a different position, though.

Love Carson also. Great man.
My thinking is Trump is having great fun with all this. It wouldn’t suprise in the least if he picked Ivanka , Don Jr. Lol.

I wasn’t a Ben Carson fan politically. But he might be ok as VP.

Newt’s constituency overlaps too much with Trump’s, limiting the number of new votes he could pull in. Also, Newt is kryptonite to social conservatives, resulting in a drag on the ticket.

Newt’s place is chief of staff. His congressional experience would be invaluable there.

Hasn’t Newt done enough damage already?

Trump can’t win with Newt.

Newt is deeply compromised, he has done a lot to sell out America and no, just no.

Marsha Blackburn

Good names for VP

I saw Ben speak in person. As much as I like him...he is a poor public speaker.

“Nice guy. No doubt about that.

Lower energy than Jeb or Hillary.”

I agree. Surgeon General would be a better fit.

Weekend Update: Chris Rock on a Black Vice President:

Chris Rock makes it known that there will never be a black Vice President because some black guy would kill the President, become a hero in prison and would eventually be pardoned by the new black President. [SNL Season 16, 1991]

I’d rather see Allen West as VP choice. He has the temperment and military experience.
