She'll pick Harriet Tubman.
What, you don't think a dead woman can be vice-president? Why, because she's a woman?

Feinstein comes to mind. She's as establishment as it gets.

Feinstein would be like doubling down on everyone of Hillary's negative traits, and its not like Hillary will need help to win cali

Meh. She's old. Its possible but she had said she wanted to retire. If she does or not is the question. I want to see a piano fall on her.

Bernie Sanders of course.

Oh God. That would have a chance.

It would explain why he hasn't really hit her hard on anything juicy like the email scandal.
It would also keep the Bernie supporters that want jobs from defecting and voting for Trump.
She's been in politics for a long time, I would almost bet they have a deal and it's all been a giant show.

There'll be no shortage of "womyn card" players when she starts choosing her cabinet, but her VP will be male. Maybe Sherrod Brown.
[–] cpoakes ago
Yup. For the broadest appeal, she needs a man - but that doesn't set well with her feminist rhetoric. As a professional politician, she will abandon the rhetoric and make the strategic decision.

I don't think it will be a woman or a minority. She's already got the first women president thing going, so she will probably pick whatever candidate she thinks is most likely to sway independents. Probably won't happen, but if she could get Bloomberg that might actually help her a lot. He has 8 times the net worth of Trump so his whole shtick about how rich he is goes out the window.

Pander to the largest minority group. She is going for a Julián Castro.
