BREAKING NEWS: Joe Biden is Obama's VP Choice

[Real]

Obama had two "safe" choices - Hillary and Richardson. The parallel to his situation was 1960, when the inexperienced John Kennedy and super-experienced LBJ fought a tough campaign. The party was split in a similar manner, and JFK reached out to LBJ and took him on as VP. The election turned out to be a squeaker, and if Nixon had gone the Gore route - suing in states the election was close - he might have won.

I believe it was Hillary of all people who found voter fraud in Chicago against Nixon.

Hillary was a teenager in 1960, maybe 12 or 13 years old even.

Off her wikipedia page:

Raised in a politically conservative household,[12] at age thirteen Rodham helped canvass South Side Chicago following the very close 1960 U.S. presidential election, where she found evidence of electoral fraud against Republican candidate Richard Nixon.[14] She then volunteered to campaign for Republican candidate Barry Goldwater in the U.S. presidential election of 1964.[15] Rodham's early political development was shaped most by her high school history teacher (like her father, a fervent anti-communist), who introduced her to Goldwater's classic The Conscience of a Conservative,[16] and by her Methodist youth minister (like her mother, concerned with issues of social justice), with whom she saw and met civil rights leader Martin Luther King, Jr. in Chicago in 1962.[17]
