NYT and the VP Clinton

New York Times: Looks at the prospects of Hillary Clinton becoming the VP. Mr Krugman writing in the Times states the following, " What about offering Mrs. Clinton the vice presidency? If I were Mr. Obama, I’d do it. Adding Mrs. Clinton to the ticket — or at least making the offer — might help heal the wounds of an ugly primary fight. " The problem with a offer it might just get accepted, does Obama really want Bill and Hillary breathing down in neck for four to eight years, also what if an offer is made based on the idea it will be rejected, and they accept, they are conned in other words. The best thing for Obama to do is get someone that appeals to Clinton voters but also ticks the following boxes, male, white, older, executive experience as in former Governor or Mayor and also Foreign Policy experience.
