If you were running for President, would you consider choosing the previous poster to be your running mate?

KRich/Goldwater seems like a winning ticket to me!

Balance my hard-core neoconservative stances with his more "limited" views on foreign policy.  We're both social moderates though, so we might have some problems with the base.

Yes, I think Jerry could help me win the South, although the ticket might be too socially moderate for some of the Republican base.

Haha no.

Too much of a loose cannon on the campaign trail.

Yes, although I'm not sure sure how much he would really balance the ticket.

Yeah, I'd need a social conservative/moderate, if I were to go anywhere with the GOP base.

He would be on my top 20 list, but wouldn't make it passed that because we are similar.

Depending on how I won the primary, of course. Assuming I had won running to the right of my fellow candidates, as a Northerner and conservative, a Southern moderate would be a good addition.

Yes, I think he would add good balance to the ticket without being too far away from me ideologically.

Would this mean I would get Clinton donors? If so, yes.

If we ran as Independents then yes,  I would indeed pick him in a heartbeat. As a Republican, it would not work out, even though he is pro-life.

Having a Veep from the Sunshine State always helps.
