When he is the general election candidate he can choose Sen. Jim Webb as his VP because he is strong on military and has a very steady persona. He is also more socially conservative to balance out the ticket, while still being against the war. Choosing him also guarantees he'll win Virginia.
I agree with a previous letter writer. I'm not sure why Madden is so snarky about Obama's educational background. Clinton is virtually the same. All pols these days seem to be overeducated and/OR super rich like John McCain. None of them can really claim working class hero status. At least Obama did work as a community organizer for many years. That is the hardest and worst-paying job around. I'd take a factory job any day of the week.
