Yo! This would be my first post ever here.
Little background. I'm only 16, I don't know how that compares to the rest of you, so bear with my limited intellegence, and my lack of ability to actually vote. I'm the only 16 year old I know that actually cares about comething that matters in the world, so I'm happy about that. I got into all this political stuff after the 2000 election and feeling totally bummed after Gore wound up not bein prez.
Anyway, I thought Edwards was the best pick for the nomination right from when I first heard of him. Now that it looks like its Kerry, I'll have to say he'd easily make the best VP.
1) He's younger, a lot of passion, and a rising star. I think that's a proper image for a VP. I don't want to see an older guy on the ticket.
2) I think his background and "Two Americas" theme pulls in the big midwest states for the Dems, and gives them a chance to pick up a couple Southern states. (Although they are the Dems are so opposed on social issues, it'll be hard for any Dem to do anything there)
