Who would make the most successful (that is, would bring the most electoral success, not who you like the most) running mate for Ron Paul if he ran for President?

Can't really choose. I would be happy with either Peter Schiff, the Judge, or Gary Johnson

It's about who would bring the most electoral success in the general.

I voted for the judge.

He's a great public orator, very quick witted, and is very telegenic. He's also incredibly well versed in small-l libertarian ideals and can make a very rational and understandable argument in favor of smaller government.

The only drawback I can think of is that he would have to give up his TV show.

I would like to see Peter Schiff, but I voted for Judge Napolitano and here's why. I think that although Schiff is brillant in his own right, the ticket of Paul/Schiff would be off balance and be heavily based on economics and finance. Judge Napolitano would be a great counter weight to Ron Paul in that I believe with his law experience legislation would be even more constitutionally based. Judge Napolitano also has face time in the media and could also explain events the how and why things need to be repealled etc to the public in a way they can understand that doesn't (as sometimes does) come off as quixotic (< intented).

Schiff would serve great as an advisor or a cabinet position.

If Ron Paul chooses the Judge as his running mate, FOX will be forced to support him. Also, the ticket will more than likely get an explicit endorsement from Beck, Stossel, and other friends of the Judge if he's on the ticket.

Ron wouldn't be picking his running mate until after the primary when FNC would probably support him anyway.

No Ventura?

No Walter Williams??

WTF

 

[wormyguy]

No Ventura?

You can't exactly nominate a "truther" for VP.

No Walter Williams??

I highly doubt he would be "successful." Come to think of it, I shouldn't have included any libertarian figures in the poll at all.

I actually meant to click on The Judge.

Mike Huckabee.

Chris Christie would almost guarantee the neo-con vote. But I think Gary Jonson could be come big in the party if he goes into the debates.
