Clinton Campaign Chair: Obama would make a good veep

In an interview, Terry McAuliffe says Obama would be considered for the vice presidential slot of a Clinton ticket:

McAuliffe: “But clearly Barack Obama has shown that he can excite people. She needs to make sure the next, whoever the Vice President is, could take over if anything happened to her. But it’s early for us to be talking about Vice President. But let me tell you this, I sat in that Kodak Theater the other day, I was there in Los Angeles. I flew out with Hillary, I went to the event, I sat in that audience, and Dominic to sit there and look at that stage - the two finalists, African-American and a woman of the Democratic Party - I think that was exciting. I think that’s exciting for the Party for our country, and I think it’s exciting for the world.”

Carter: “So it might be a good idea to put him on the ticket?”

McAuliffe: “Sure it would be, absolutely. How could you deny consideration of someone who has excited so many people?”
