I didn't get a chance to write the full description in the title, since I reached my character limit.
What I'm asking here (and this is something I've discussed with IceSpear before):
Recently, there's been a lot of discussion about the 'death of White Democrats in the South.' While many argue that this was inevitable, and it probably was, would nominating Hillary in 2008 have slowed down this trend? And if so, would it accordingly have made more sense to nominate her in 2008? Of course, one could make the argument that Hillary would have been better in 2008 because she had more experience than Obama.
EDIT: Also, looking at this ideologically. If the goal was to move the Democratic party to the left, would it have made more sense to have Hillary first, and then Obama, as opposed to the other way around?
