My money is on Castro. He is young, a far left wing liberal, and Hispanic. No other qualifications are necessary.

I'm thinking it could be Cory Booker. He has the same qualifications as Castro, except he's black.

I think she will choose the road runner. No answers just beep beep. Hillary already barks like a dog so she thinks she's a coyote.

Bill cannot run. He cannot serve any more time as POTUS per the Constitution, therefore is ineligible to run for VP.

Incorrect.

The 22nd Amendment provides, "No person shall be elected to the office of the President more than twice, and no person who has held the office of President, or acted as President, for more than two years of a term to which some other person was elected President shall be elected to the office of President more than once."

Bill can be elected VP and if Hillary croaks he can serve the remainder of the term as President, he just can never be elected President again.

It is never going to happen. But there is no Constitutional reason it could not.

I don't think so.

The Democrats are so over confident that they have all of the black voters locked into the Democrat plantation that they feel free to import millions of Mexicans to vote Democrat, even though they are taking jobs away from any poor blacks that still might want to work.

I think Hillary is going to pick a Mexican VP to motivate all those new undocumented Democrats to illegally vote for her.

“Castro and his twin brother are anchor babies...his parents are illegal aliens...”

That does not seem to be accurate.

Parents were born here in the United States.

If I were Clinton, I’d pick Biden.

Whatever for? Biden is an old dufus that could only make her look bad.

Anyone who would vote for Biden is going to vote for Hillary anyway.

“Well it won’t be Hickenlooper. His name is too long.”

If your name can’t fit on a bumper sticker and most people can’t spell it, you can’t be on a national ticket.

Castro is a complete empty suit, dumb as a rock - can only repeat slogans. Did nothing of note as San Antonio mayor, because position has little power (thankfully). Definitely far Left, and is the Hispanic Obama, complete with far Left commie mommie. Having him as POTUSwhen Hillary strokes out will be such a disaster as to make us pine for the good old days under Obama.

On the positive side (for us), he is very short. Hillary may be taller, and Pence will look like a different species in comparison.

I don’t know anything about this guy. He’s kinda cute. However is he even eligible to run? Where was he born and so forth? Just wondering.

See post 52.

He’s an anchor baby. His mom is a La Raza founder.

All true. All reasons why he is on the top of Hillary's list.

Castro’s mother was born here, and her twins were born here.

That in itself makes them all citizens.

You make some good points. These days, blacks have slipped to at least 3rd place on the Democrats' list of "victim" groups that they pander to, behind the LGBT and Hispanic voting blocks.
