Based on this headline Booker is saying that regardless of qualifications he will pick a woman as his VP Running Mate. Now I'm not saying that a woman is not qualified, I am saying you should pick the most qualified person for the position. The are people of both sexes that would make excellent VP choices. Don't play the politics of gender or race in your selection. Go for top quality

    "Life and politics provide enough puzzling situations for me . . on a daily basis."
    Words me dino can big time relate to.
    Me dino is also trying to write a novel--something I think I'm neglecting way more than I should.

    I'm 75. I don't take brain supplements. My wife suffers from early Alzheimer's, takes Focus, and is addicted to puzzles...all day long, everywhere we go. Word Seek, Sudoku.....even in Spanish. I don't have the patience for puzzle books. Life and politics provide enough puzzling situations for me....on a daily basis. My "office cave" is reflective of a questioning mind....general disorder. So far, my issues have been skeletal, not memory based....although, I don't remember things as well as I once did.

    Me dino is 72 and I take Prevagen.
    A sister-in-law sent me a mind puzzle desk calendar so I won't go senile.
    Guess what" Me dino don't like mind game puzzles.Didn't throw it away but its not here on my desk.
    It's somewhere in this room but it's too much a bother to puzzle our just where.
    So tread lightly with a dithering old dino.

    If I chose "Dino" means "Democrat In Name Only" instead of a short nickname for "dinosaur," who knows what the heck I'm really up to.
    And~~
    The dog's name was Bubbles due to the cute way it bounced around as a puppy..

    Allosaur (almost a T-Rex), I enjoy reading your contributions, but you've totally lost me on this one.

    I'll bet Booker wouldn't pick a man "who wasn't qualified". He is too rude to be believed. Thanks for the crumbs, guy! I'll bet his mother didn't even like him!

    When I had a dog, I fed it Alpo. Should she wolf a can of Alpo up from a bowl on the floor while wagging her butt, that would prove to me dino that she is a crazy person who thinks she is a dog.
    That reminds me. I'm hungry. Excuse me while me dino goes to hunt down some stegosauri or something.

    Bwahahahahaha...

    All I have to do to get my laughs in for the day is listen to one of the 20(?) or so Democratic candidates for a few minutes. I can't think of a single one of them which could fill a thimble with their IQ...

    He will never win even the nomination, so this is a moot point

    I am trying to figure out what you said in your Post.
    Booker says he will pick a women regardless of qualifications and then says 'go for quality'? Can you have that both ways?

    Now me dino wants to take this a step further. We need an It who also wears a burka with a turban atop It's head. Better yet, how about sewing a propeller beanie on top of the turban
    Then It can flap it's arms and dance while singing Mary Martin's "I'm flying" from Peter Pan of that 1960 TV special me dino saw way back then~~

    OMG! Mary Martin playing a flying boy is kinda Itish if ya think about it.

    Hey they probably all will select a female to be their running mate. I am waiting for one of the women to select a woman!

    Who else could Dino be thinking of. She acts like a man, and she has that black accent when she needs it.
