Name your own Vice Presidential Running Mate (Just for fun)

[Jingthing]

This is a HUMOR thread, not a political debate thread.

I know many people follow the U.S. presidential elections, and recently candidate Ted Cruz who has a TINY bit better chance of being president than any of us here, "aspirationally" named his Vice Presidential pick. Some lady you never heard of ... don't worry about that.

Generally that is just not done UNTIL you are actually nominated ...

So as none of us here are actually going to be nominated as a presidential candidate, how about selecting who YOU would pick to be your Vice Presidential RUNNING MATE for your non-existent presidential campaign?

To be strictly Kosher, the person you pick should be constitutionally eligible, over 35, "naturally born" U.S. citizen (ambiguous), a U.S. resident for a least 14 years, and don't forget ALIVE.

But no need to stick to silly RULES if you don't want to here.

Again, the person can be anybody you choose, but it will be more interesting to readers if you pick a FAMOUS person. Saying my Uncle Morris won't mean anything to readers.

Also of interest, WHY did you pick the person?

Again, just for fun, not for politics.

If you need some inspiration:

[Jingthing]

To encourage participation, I will name MY Vice Presidential running mate after the first TEN members name theirs.

[surangw]

Frank Underwood

[Kwasaki]

Donny Trump

[Kwasaki]

Clint Eastwood.

I like the film characters he plays and given few but good interviews.

[Jingthing]

Hey there.

Don't OVERTHINK this choice.

John McCain didn't.

Extra POINTS for picking someone silly.

Come on now. Who is your pick?

[Smokin Joe]

Duane Johnson

Everybody loves "The Rock". And he's actually a pretty regular guy. His past career as a professional wrestler is well suited to dealing with politicians.

[Jingthing]

Great.

New rules ... names with the status "Just Considering" this person for my V.P. are now upgraded to eligible picks.

For example, I'm considering naming Rosie O'Donnell to my V.P. counts.

Note -- that was an example only, not my own ACTUAL pick or "Just Considering" pick.

Palin already had her chance.

He big claim to fame was being the only one who could pose naked on a bear skin rug that she shot herself.

I would say she's got two bigger claims to fame.

[Jingthing]

New rule. Name your favorite vice.

Just kidding.

[Srikcir]

Fun choice - any of the Kardashian sisters

Practical choice - Shaquille O’Neil

Jessica Alba. What could go wrong picking a woman I find hot?

You don't need an excuse.

[Jingthing]

I'm counting SEVEN so far.

THREE more and I'll do my big reveal.

Ellen DeGeneres - 30% of voters guaranteed immediately.

If the voting age were to be reduced to 12, then maybe Taylor Swift - she'd win most of the teenage voters.

Carly is the worst pick ever. At least Palin brought the conservative/religious vote. I don't know anyone who likes Carly, except Cruz - she has some secret hold over Cruz (viz the $500,000 donation from Cruz PAC to Carly's).

[Kwasaki]

You'll have to get behind me in the queue.

[KMartinHandyman]

Fun pick Eva Longoria because,, see photo [emoji39]

Serious Eva Longoria because she is Hispanic, politically active and astute. She helped get Obama elected. I'll try to forgive her if she promises to touch herself on request as my VP.

[HLover]

The way that country is headed; Catlyn Jenner is the obvious choice.

Case closed.

[Jingthing]

Tituss Burgess

[AZBill]

Lewis Black!

OK, so how about Hillary and Pee Wee Herman?

Isn't that a match made in heaven? I mean, she's married to a sex offender and ... he is one!

No, the idea here is to pick YOUR OWN running mate as if you were running for president. Got it now?

Sorry! That's been my life story ... never reading the directions. Actually, the assembly directions are the first thing I throw away!

No scandals everybody knows he did drugs and had sex with just about everybody.

Great lines

Jon Oliver. Would need someone to help me regain perspective after getting caught up in the whirlwind of bullshit on a daily basis. Besides, he makes me laugh.
