Black People Politics : Who should Obama Choose as a Running Mate?

[Thuso]

Barack Obama is being increasingly described as the "likely nominee." If Barack Obama wins the Democratic nomination, who should he choose as a running mate?

I think I posted this somewhere else, but good choices might be Edwards or maybe Kerry. But no to Hillary.

 

[Edward Williams]

Colin Powell...

People trip me out. Everyone hates Hillary now. Little over a year ago Blacks were in LOVE with the Clintons. Most Blacks acted like the Clintons were the best thing since sliced bread. I, on the other hand, was one of the very few Blacks who disliked the Clintons (never bought into Bill being the "first Black president" nonsense). When I would say something negative about the Clintons, or ask Black people to open up their eyes in regard to the Clintons, Blacks were ready to cut my head off. Now Obama is the flavor of the day. How long will this romantic love affair last? Can't ask questions or say anything about Obama - Black people are prepared to cut your head off. LOL!
