I've been a voter my entire adult life. But I have never been a registered Democrat until a few months ago. After nearly a decade of unfathomable damage to the spirit of this country, I know this country needs a leader with a better vision of the future.

I myself could use a little hope right now. When I imagine what could have been done with the money and lives we've lost in the War in Iraq, I see hope alive. Because with new leadership, we can do that next year! I think both Clinton and Obama would make excellent choices as president or as Vice President.

So just to get people talking, is there any reason why Senators Clinton and Obama shouldn't agree to be each others running mate, no matter who wins the nomination?

With so many new voters in the party really excited aboutone or the other, or both, doesn't it seem like runnin mates should be arranged before this nomination pans out?

(The loser would maintain much more momentum if it goes down before the nomination and therefore would have more power to bring to the Vice Presidency!)
