POLL: Do we want Elizabeth Warren as Clinton's VP choice (by primary candidate)? [View all]

Someone posted a poll on this yesterday but didn't break it out by primary candidate. I thought it would be interesting to see how this question breaks down among supporters of both candidates.

No (Bernie Supporter) bigwillq Jun 2016 #1

Agree. A senator can get more done than a vice-president. JustABozoOnThisBus Jun 2016 #5

Like Senate majority leader. Imagine the hell she would bring upon the GOP tonyt53 Jun 2016 #27

There are a lot here who wanted her as SBS's VP choice. Bobby Kennedy can fill Warren's Senate seat. TheBlackAdder Jun 2016 #40

I didn't want Warren as Bernie's VP either. bigwillq Jun 2016 #41

She needs to stay in senate. VulgarPoet Jun 2016 #2

Depends on how close we are to retaking the Senate ... NurseJackie Jun 2016 #3

Wouldn't the Republican appointment only be for a few months, until a special election? democrattotheend Jun 2016 #20

I think they have 150 days to call for a special election dlwickham Jun 2016 #26

it's irrelevant to me. It is a ceremonial post. cali Jun 2016 #4

Ceremonial ... ha! :-P NurseJackie Jun 2016 #6

yes, it's largely ceremonial. What precisely has Joe Biden done? cali Jun 2016 #9

You haven't been paying attention to Joe, I see. Or ... NurseJackie Jun 2016 #11

So you can't name a thing. No surprise cali Jun 2016 #15

I was going to say it's ceremonial with a young pres like Obama, but then JFK... yurbud Jun 2016 #23

The fact it is a ceremonial post should make it highly relevant to you. JonLeibowitz Jun 2016 #13

It will be tough to call Bernie fringe after this primary cycle. yurbud Jun 2016 #25

What that we do here *is* relevant jack_krass Jun 2016 #28

I fully support this. Double down. Do it. betsuni Jun 2016 #8

Horrible, horrible idea. Lizzie Poppet Jun 2016 #10

Yep. It is interesting the breakdown of votes in the poll so far. JonLeibowitz Jun 2016 #12

I love your posts Tarc Jun 2016 #24

Almost all of the Bernie supporters voting "no" are ones geek tragedy Jun 2016 #14

Mmmh. I tried to look at it from the hardcore bernie viewpoint. cyberpunk Jun 2016 #17

I don't think Elizabeth Warren is going to be anyone's yes-woman nt geek tragedy Jun 2016 #18

I'd hope not. nt cyberpunk Jun 2016 #19

Bernie supporters have been saying for months athena Jun 2016 #34

that's a lot of cross referencing yurbud Jun 2016 #38

I'm for it. Here is why. RDANGELO Jun 2016 #16

That's a bunch of if's floppyboo Jun 2016 #22

Great for Banks, terrible for citizens Marrah_G Jun 2016 #30

Why? democrattotheend Jun 2016 #31

Yes, because she isn't in the senate to fight them. Marrah_G Jun 2016 #37

Warren is a fiery advocate. She can have a decades-long career in the Senate... Hekate Jun 2016 #32

She didn't have the courage to either run or support the progressive candidate. Kentonio Jun 2016 #33

Between VP and the Senate -- Hell Hath No Fury Jun 2016 #35

no, they have zero chemistry. nt La Lioness Priyanka Jun 2016 #36

No. But if she accepts it, I'll be hopeful of the terms and her judgement. nt JCanete Jun 2016 #39

it doesn't matter, since hillary will lose. nt restorefreedom Jun 2016 #42
