I've been asked to create a poll as to whether Jesse Jackson Jr. would make a good choice for VP. Here it is.
I personally think he would be a good choice, for three reasons.
One, he's one of the most recognizeable faces in the black political leadership, with good name recognition to boot.
Two, he has a reputation for hard-nosed pragmatic politics, while still supporting progressive issues that are near and dear to Democrats.
Three, it would bring the old-school organizational skills of the Chicago Democrats into the campaign. In particular, should Dean be the nominee, this would provide a useful compliment to Trippi's Jedi Mastery over the Internet.
