CRAZY-HORSE Wrote:So Hillary (I'm just throwing in her name as an example),
She could theoretically have hubby Bill as a running mate then?

Are there restrictions as to who can be a running mate,
Could the nominee choose their local postal worker for example...?
I know they wouldn't, but could they?
lol
choosing Bill might be the only way she can be beat

yes they can choose whoever as long as they meet constitutional requirements
even me

i'd vote for you on anyone's ticket if I could.

but seriously...

if Hillary was nominated she could choose Obama as her running mate if they both accepted which would
basically give him a third term in office and so on, which would make the 'two term' President rule obsolete,
thus, using a loophole in the system.

The 12th Amendment, says that, "no person constitutionally ineligible to the office of President shall be eligible to that of Vice-President."

meaning if a President has served 2 terms he is no longer eligible to be President or Vice-President

to me that sounds like a 1 term President would still be eligible

one for the courts

Lincoln (republican) chose Andrew Johnson (democrat)
Jefferson (democratic-republican) chose John Adams (federalist)

Thanks MH! That clears that question up Confusedmile:

Just my opinion but if Hillary were to win guess who would really be running the WH :wink:

I was thinking Trump and Hillary shoud both be in the WH.
Let her give it to Sanders and Trump pick Hillary as a running mate.
Sounds crazy but crazier things have happened in politics.
I know Trump really likes Hillary. He gave her money to be at his daughter's
wedding (I think it was his daughter). He also gave Pelosi money :eek:
So, he really likes those Dems. If he and Hill could come to a agreement
they would be in the WH.
That is Not what I would like to see however!
