    Barack Obama would be a fool to make Hillary Clinton his VP. She's up to no good and has been throughout her political career. She has an ulterior motive and it's going to bite Obama in the ass if he even entertains considering her for the position in high office. It would be a mistake for Obama to have a secret meeting with her yesterday, especially on her terms. She is up to something that will benefit her and, in the long run, only her.

    Her campaign has been all about her and what she wants, not even giving her supporters or the voters a second thought. She wants what she wants and it has nothing to do with Obama. I think that Obama would be in serious danger is he put her on the ticket. People have seem to have forgotten that she's next in line if anything happens to Obama. (Remember the "assassination" comment?) A very advantageous position for her to be in, wouldn't you say?

    There might be a way of putting her on his cabinet as Secretary of Healthcare, being a topic that she has been outspoken about throughout her campaign as well as during Bill Clinton's presidency. That would be reasonable - but not as VP. To do otherwise would be a grave error.

    An error that could take him to an early grave.
