since there's so much debate about who the VP will be, we should have VP primaries.

And the obligatory DU VP primary flame wars commence!

And we could have the labels come back!

ABR = Anyone but Richardson
ABC = Anyone but Clark
ABE = Anyone but Edwards
ABG = Anyone but Gephart
blah, blah, blah...

Because we were all so happy during the Presidential primaries.
:eyes:

7. Was it always this way?
My history is a bit fuzzy, but I seem to recall a time in American party politics where the convention nominated the vice president independently of the presidential candidate.

Am I confused or is that accurate?
