Did Wimpy Obama blow it by not choosing Hillary as his running mate?

Question

Was he afraid of strong women in professional environments? His first major decision and he blinked under stress?

All talk no action?

Answer 1

Everybody, including Bill Clinton himself, agree that Joe Biden is the perfect running mate for Barack Obama. He has tons of foreign policy experience and he agrees with Obama on almost every issue. Who wants to votes for Hillary Clinton after she lied to everybody's face multiple times in the Primary Contest.

I don't see where you get that Obama is wimpy, or "all talk, no action." He'll provide the action when he is elected and the Republican Crooks that are currently in the White House are gone.

Answer 2

yes, he did and now a woman will beat him

Answer 3

Yes he did.  

Answer 4

I would not call him wimpy, but Yes I do think he should have chosen Hillary.  Even if he did, the world would still have something to say, someone would not like it, he nor any one else should expect to please every one.  It just is not doable.

Answer 5

I agree he threw away a great opportunity, but not because he's afraid of strong women, look at his wife, she definitely wears the pants in their abode.

Answer 6

Hilary would not have wanted the VP position.  Historically the office of VP has been seen as the death of ones political career.  There have even been instances of a VP being selected because they were too big a pain in the butt to the party in their current position.  That's how Teddy Roosevelt got on the party ticket, he was proving to problematic to the party's political machine in NY.  Of course it's a gamble, one which didn't pay off for the party with Roosevelt when McKinley was assassinated.

Answer 7

Yes,

then again people who who get in the Clinton's way tend to die.

If she is VP she can become prez by getting him bumped off

Answer 8

No disrespect towards Clinton supporters, but they have their legacy. I think if Obama was bullied into choosing her as a running mate what does that say about him making his own decisions.I think he showed great character risking the chance of loosing support to establish his own identity. The Clintons had their season and we all appreciated it  lets give Obama room to lead in his way, It's the Democrat party not the Clinton party.

The Republicans on the other hand can't even tell when they've been insulted. McCains choice to pick a woman for VP as a gimmick to steal Clinton supporters is a slap in the face to her political value and what she brings to the table as if any woman will due.

Answer 9

You are aware that you are making absolutely no point in your outlandish accusations?

Answer 10

Making political decisions based on what people's genitals tell them to do is bad policy. Obama's gotten this far, I think he's probably doing something right.

Answer 11

He showed her who is the boss.

Answer 12

You say "wimpy" when he in fact has proven that he will not give in easily to whims of others.  He stood strong and made his own choice.  It was clear to me that Hillary was never in the running for VP.  People saying that she was "passed over" is laughable to me, because she wasn't even considered at all.  The resume has to at least be on the desk for you to pass over it.

Answer 13

Get a grip. You just can handle a brilliant man with a drop African  blood has his own mind and a chance at winning this election without a Clinton. Move on. ..The democrats have spoken and change is coming, sweety.

Answer 14

I agree. He really cut off his nose to spite his face when he didn't pick Hillary.

Answer 15

no i like the way he chose the other guy hillary clinton kinda sucks
