Barack Obama should pick former Alabama Governor Don Siegelman for VP.  this accomplishes three things; it helps Obama in his weakest area of the nation - the deep south; puts a Catholic on the ticket, and something else which I knew a second ago but can't remember now.

I knew somebody would bring that up.  I don't think it would be a big issue since he is already out of jail.  if he were still incarcerated it would make his selection more trivial - but not off of the table altogether.

Siegelman also served in public service in Alabama for 26 years, and served in the top four statewide offices.  this could help put to rest some of the questions about Obama's lack of executive experience.

How about Phil Bredesen? He's had 17 years in public service, is from a weak region for Obama, and is a moderate governor that could balance out Obama being a Senator.

not a Catholic.  Siegelman is the only choice.
