I think the country "might" be ready to elect a woman president. I think the country "might" be ready to elect an african-american president. But, I do not think the country is ready to accomplish both of these historic feats on the same ticket.
It is very important for both Clinton and Obama to demonstrate that they can lead white/male America (and America globally). That starts with having a strong, white male VP candidate on the stump encouraging America to vote for the top of the ticket. Without this, the candidate risks being a novelty side show lacking the gravitas to lead the free world.
