Obama supporters: will your decision change if Hillary is Barack's VP? email this discussion to a friend?

I don't know, I heard some people saying that (this was rather extreme I suppose) if Hillary Clinton became Barack Obama's vice president, they would abstain from voting in this election all together because of how anti-Clinton they were.

I was wondering how others felt about this. Personally, I'm behind Obama 100% and will be voting for him regardless of who his running mate is. However I know some people feel differently, and I was wondering how others were weighing in on this new possibility!

Politics is a strange game. What worries me is aving two "minorities" on the ticket. Sadly it's a darned if you do, and darned if you don't, kind of play. If they get in because they are the best, that's one thing, but because the majority (ok ALL) have been white North American men for so long, it's hard to break the mold without someone saying something about it.

are they in because they're not traditional presents, or are they in because they're good?

How does one differentiate in this case? How does one know they got in because they were right for the job, and not just because they were somehing new, when everyone has their own opinion?

agreed. i unfortunately predict a sad end to the presidency if obama is elected, but i still think he has a lot to offer. theres gonna be a TON of people who dont want to see that "white, middle aged male" mold broken, but this is the year 2008 and its unfortunate that those dinosaurs who believe that we're not ready for a minority as a president, haven't died out yet. look at all the other places that have had women/colored presidents, senators, congressmen, etc. haha i dont know, just my personal ranting. i agree with you know that everyones going to have a different opinion. personally i think he IS good enough. but so many people are dragging the most ridiculous skeletons out of obamas closet that i really don't know how it will go, people will let anything sway them it seems.

haha i really HOPE people dont just vote for him because they want him on display. unfortunately, i bet a lot of people will. i think the man could do a good job, lol. this will DEFINITELY be interesting to watch pan out, thank you for responding danishcanadian!
