Sanders would have more influence in the senate IMO
Hoping she goes for Sanders, that would be a particularly powerful combination to spur Democratic turnout, and keep the energetic youth attracted to Sanders so far. Just my take.
I guess we will get to see how that goes. In a few months.

That would be horrible, Sanders would be taken out the senate and put into a powerless position. He's way too old to be the nominee in waiting if Clinton wins this November. Castro has to be the frontrunner.
The VP is the tiebreaker in the Senate, btw.
Castro would be another solid choice.
Either way, it will be good. I could see Castro playing a very strong role in the future cabinet, or weighing in running for the Senate from Texas when the next Texas vacancy opens up in 2018. Right about the time to start testing the waters for Battleground Texas' dividends.
I think it will be someone with the bean gene from Florida
Any warm body can cast the tiebreaker in the senate for his party.
That's lunacy. You think the conservative voters are going to die off in two years? Castro would lose in a landslide running for the Senate in 2018. The Dems will probably try to groom him for a 2024 presidential run if Clinton wins this year, or a 2020 run if she loses.Either way, it will be good.

You mean it isn't Bill Clinton?
Think Castro would be a fun nominee. I'd love to see if it could get Hispanic turnout in Texas and other red states (like Utah and Arizona). With the possible exception of Arizona, I don't see those states turning blue. But if Trump wins the nomination, it would probably make for the closet election in a while.
He hasn't had much influence in the last 30 years outside of his wonderful work with the VA.
In the age of filibuster, it means nothing. Sanders is too valuable to be VP consider he is too old to play the role of POTUS in waiting.
Castro should be the guy, makes the most sense.
I've thought Castro should be the guy for a long time. He wants it badly too.
Maybe Bernie could be in the cabinet as labor secretary or something.
You think so? Trump seems to stubborn to back off his racism, and that's going to hurt him with independents. Though I could see him swinging to the center economically once he has no use for the Republican party after his nomination. ISIS could be a real wild card though. They could do Trump a solid by killing a couple hundred Americans in September or October and Trump's numbers would soar. It would be a win-win since ISIS would get the guerrilla war they so badly want vs our army.
Any ticket with Hillary in it is not strong at all.
I don't think Castro would be any good as a president, but he'd be a great candidate since he's young, latino, good looking, and makes good speeches. But he's such a suck up to Hillary, I doubt he'd govern much different from her.
I'm talking about in Texas
Elizabeth Warren should head the Senate, but first the Dems need to win back the Senate....
As far as VP....yeah, picking Castro would help Hillary with Hispanics...a group which she does very well with anyway......I wonder what Joe Biden is doing for the next four years?
Kicking himself for not running in what would have been a very winnable election for him?
Yeah.....I could see Joe as Hillary's VP....happened before if I remember my history, right?
They just floated the idea on CNN that if she gets indicted that they will bring in Biden.
The Dems really dont like Bernie at all. He's not wanted in Washington.
The dem establishment doesn't think he can win a general election.
Isn't he just an Obama 3rd term without Hillary's negatives? Why don't they think he can win a general election?
I don't think it would be close. There are a lot of Republicans that would just not vote that normally would, to balance out the nutters that would come out to vote for him. They would be vastly outweighed by a massive Democratic surge.
The right in this country has the singular ability to ignore reality when reality is not emotionally appealing.
Agreed. Especially if the opponent is Trump.
Kobe still sucks.
