Is Obama's Dream Team: Caroline Kennedy

Now, I'm no fan of Obama, but I do love a good political race, and Hillary has too much baggage.  So one of his choices is Caroline Kennedy.  That even goes down easily for the right wing conservative.  What do you think?

He's chosen Caroline Kennedy to lead the search for a running mate.
Marty S. Jun 4, 2008, 5:40pm UTC
Well, Cheney did lead the search, and he was who GWB wanted to run along side of him. I'd expect that Caroline would not be a running mate. Maybe Jim Webb might be a good Veep, but I'm not too knowledgable.

I don't care who it is just as long it's not the B.B.C.B
Rhetta Akamatsu Jun 4, 2008, 5:42pm UTC
My understanding is that Caroline is just leading the search. I cannot imagine that she would want political office.
Bob B. Jun 4, 2008, 5:51pm UTC
McCain is Mickey Mouse. Maybe Minnie would be fitting.
Mariana T. Jun 4, 2008, 5:54pm UTC
Obama fan here - I have to think about this one but I doubt it she's interested in a political office. Salud.
William Dotani Jun 4, 2008, 5:58pm UTC
I'm hoping Obama picks Bill Richardson.
William Dotani Jun 4, 2008, 6:03pm UTC
I'm also an Obama fan. After the worst president in our history, Obama is a breath of fresh air.
Katie R. Jun 4, 2008, 6:10pm UTC
Yeah, that won't happen
*Carol ~Bronx Southern Belle Y. Jun 4, 2008, 6:14pm UTC
I'm voting for McCain because Obama is one scary dude in his Moslem garb. I will not forget his Reverend Wright who was wrong.
August Lady Jun 4, 2008, 6:14pm UTC
I agree with Mariana on this one, & William-Gov. Richardson would be a great asset to the VP spot!
Lin G. Jun 4, 2008, 7:05pm UTC
I think Caroline Kennedy as a running mate would assure O'Bama the presidency. Her father was so well loved she'd make Barak a shoe in!
Chris E. Jun 4, 2008, 7:10pm UTC
So Lin you are saying that people would vote for her no matter what her stance is even if she has no experience just because she has the Kennedy name? That is sad that people would make such a foolish choice based on a name.
Christine Z. Jun 4, 2008, 7:18pm UTC
Caroline Kennedy was chosen by Obama to help him decide on a running mate - she's not going to be his running mate.
Rex T. Jun 4, 2008, 7:24pm UTC
It wouldn't surprise me if she did becomes his running mate. Americans seem to be hell bent on returning the same couple of political families to high office.

It is a tribute to Ted who is battling brain cancer and her husband is tied to the NY Jewish Community. Besides he thinks he is JFK reborn, so he must have a Kennedy near him at all time. It helps keep his ego inflated.
Stephanie B. Jun 4, 2008, 9:45pm UTC
She's just one of the three people he has chosen to help in choosing and vetting a VP hcoice. I'm interested to know how he chose his committee
Don B. Jun 4, 2008, 9:46pm UTC
Chris,
Why shouldn't they vote for Caroline on her name alone. They voted for Obama on race alone since he has NO experience, NO plan and calls for change, but can't tell you what change he has in mind.

HAve all of you seen the photo of Obama getting into Muslim garb so he can enter a Mosque?

I'm,too,am not a Obama fan but I must say that I like the choice.I have always admired and respected Caroline.
Deloris Wright Jun 5, 2008, 2:24pm UTC
Again I will state the fact that Caroline Kennedy is just going to help Obama TO FIND HIS RUNNING MATE. Not to be his running mate I do not care who he gets as a VP as long as it is not Clinton
*Carol ~Bronx Southern Belle Y. Jun 5, 2008, 6:20pm UTC
Name recognition is the main reason people vote. Not everyone who votes is knowledable.
Truth Always Jun 5, 2008, 8:56pm UTC
I too, will not vote for him, I am afraid of what he has in mind when he talks about change... As for Caroline, I didn think she was into politics,,,,

Obama and Clinton would never work they both have infalted egos.
Terry M. Jun 6, 2008, 12:46am UTC
It does not matter to me I would never vote for someone like Obama.
Dan (open minded conservative) K. Jun 6, 2008, 8:21am UTC
Obama and Kennedy .... hmmm. I don't think we could get any further left than that!
Jerri H. Jun 8, 2008, 12:56am UTC
Hmmm...thanks Carol. I almost dropped this from the group because of it being political but it really is something you do when you are bored...contemplate the choices people make :)

Thanks for posting to
I was REALLY bored ;)

I live in NY and I am not happy about the situation. Caroline Kennedy has no qualifications except for the Kennedy name and has not served NY politically. There are others who should get the job.
