Kucinich and Paul make a good team?

Posted by jerry as politics

This interview with Dennis Kucinich’s lovely & intelligent wife:

Has moderates on both sides quite excited. Unfortunately, it can’t be. There are a few major obstacles:

1. Neither appears to be on a trajectory to win their respective party primary race.
2. Someone has to be VP. It’s unlikely that, though they are close on many issues, certain ideologies like abortion, will prevent each from playing second seat to the other.
3. Either Paul or Kucinich would likely lose the support of their party should they win the primary and choose a running mate from the opposing party, rather than from the “talent pool” from their own party.

I agree, that it would be a great presidency. There would be balance and sanity in the White House, but we are teeing up for another 4 years of craziness.
