Dickless - you should be worried about your own house. You are the one that went over and advised Obama's cousin, Odinga, on his campaign in Kenya and when he lost, his followers went on a rampage killing thousands of people. This man ran his campaign on hope and change, as well.

What a guy you are!!!

Mr. Morris, you are right on the money!

The main difficulty with choosing the VP candidate for Obama is the issue of change and I am very interested in observing just how he deals with it. Chris Dodd and Joseph Biden are excellent choices w/the exception that they are both "insiders" despite have histories of trying to change the system.

Many folks, including the other writers below, miss the point about Obama's abilities ie: The individual capable of organizing the best organized and well-run campaign has already demonstrated the ability to surround him/herself with quality folks rather than party hacks. Do we really want another President who not only makes bad personnel choices but can't understand economics?

Finally - are we seriously planning to base a candidate's integrity on whether or not we agree with his/her spiritual leader? If so, let's take a look @ our current President's - he is very interesting, too!

Let's get real and focus on the dangerous position this country finds ourselves in every area. This isn't tea and crumpets, it is life and death of this country and her citizens. I, for one, don't want to continue fiddling while Rome burns!

There is a huge flaw in your theory. Obama's candidacy is about change, he can't then pick a running mate with tons of experience because to get the experience you have to be part of the political system he wants to change. The only acceptable way to get someone on the ticket with experience is to pick Clinton because he can at least argue that with a such a close race the only way we can unite the party is to have her on the ticket. He could then justify her as a "change agent" by saying that the first woman in that position would clearly bring a different mindset to the job and that is change you can believe in! As a woman I can tell if she is not on the ticket I will vote for Mc Same

I'm in total agreement with Morris/Morgan. The Clinton duo would be disastrous in the Veep slot.
I have said from the very beginning that New Mexico governor Bill Richardson should be the VP on any Democratic ticket. His experience trumps anyone else on any possible list of choices. An Obama-Richardson slate would put us on the road to correcting a slide which began with Nixon, and hasn't abated in all those years. However, "Beware the Ides of March!"
