A former adviser to Donald Trump floated Utah Rep. Mia Love on Friday as a possible pick for vice president on the real-estate mogul's ticket.
"If you were to name some people that nobody is talking about, to keep an eye on with the vice president [pick] who would you say we should keep our eye on?" asked Brian Kilmeade, a Fox News Radio host.
The former adviser, Michael Caputo, prefaced his answer by saying he was "never in those discussions" because they were "above my pay grade."
That said, he provided a couple names.
"The two people I think you should look at - and these are unorthodox. First is Mia Love, the congresswoman, somebody who is an African-American leader with really bright ideas and an ability to communicate," Caputo said.
"Is there a relationship there?" Kilmeade asked.
"There is. People are looking at her. There is an incredible opportunity for the Republican Party," Caputo replied.

All racial politics all the time? Is that what we’ve become?
How about that very pretty black actress from Clueless?
Ditto for Senator Tom Cotton.
Mia voted for Boner.
Next.
My VP pick is Peter Gosselin Fitzgerald. The former one term GOP US Senator for Illinois.

Mia Love ? you have got to be kidding me ....Haitian emigre , and often on the Liberal side of RINO’s
Does anything good ever come from Utah anymore ?
They are all infected with insane Romneyitis
America needs to be led by warriors
You are correct. She is a lite weight, do nothing, establishment driven, republican. She would dead weight to the ticket.
Terrible idea. A first-term Congresswoman who is basically a novelty as a black, female Republican.
I still go with Gov. Fallin and Sen. Sessions as the two best names so far.
It could be Ted Cruz.
Blackburn an interesting choice. I recently liked her on Facebook . There is an army of left wing clowns attacking everything she puts up. She must be doing something right.
Too young, too inexperienced, AFAIK her parents were not citizens when she was born (from Haiti) and I know there was an important issue she was bad about...border??
Yeah, that was it:
In November of 2015 she endorsed open borders Marco Rubio:

“Fitzgerald opposed drilling in the Arctic National Wildlife Refuge throughout his tenure in the US Senate and broke with conservative colleagues. Fitzgerald also supported “reasonable” gun control, immigration reform and the McCain-Feingold campaign finance reform legislation.”
This is just one of those things for me...there is not a nation in the world that would not take advantage of the resources we have in ANWR; the Alaskan Pipeline has been running at 50% capacity for years; I don’t care what the price of oil is at any given time; anybody that votes against it is out in my book.

Yes Nehlen and Ward would be two improvements to the House and Senate.
Mia turned into a Boehner stooge. Sorry, she’s not fooling me again.
You mean like Renee Ellmers, Ron Johnson and Kelly Ayotte? Too bad about Ellmers, huh?
