What will Biden look for in a running mate?

Joe Biden knows something about the vice presidential selection and vetting process. He went through it himself 12 years ago when Barack Obama tapped the 36-year Delaware senator as his understudy.

Now, after the pair served together in the White House for eight years, Biden is the one doing the choosing for vice president. He hasn't yet clinched the nomination against Vermont Sen. Bernie Sanders, who is staying in the race despite a poor showing in this week's primary elections. But facing the likelihood of strong Biden finishes in next week's round of voting in megastates Arizona, Florida, Illinois, and Ohio, Biden can turn his attention to finding a running mate.

For Prime Policy Group's Charlie Black, a top aide to former Presidents Ronald Reagan, George H.W. Bush, George W. Bush, as well as Arizona Sen. John McCain during his 2008 White House bid, his best advice to Biden was to select somebody "you know you can work with."

Downplaying the importance of geographical balance in modern politics, Biden, 77, may need to pick someone for philosophical balance "to make the Sanders supporters happy," according to Black.

It doesn't matter.  Realistically, it wouldn't change my vote unless it was insane.  Like Palin after 4 interviews.

Beat me to it Fred.  Except I think Joes's demographic of choice is 8-10 year olds.

I don’t know but it really is a sure bet he’ll pick someone in their 40s or 50s.

Perhaps Booker or Klobuchar?

That would definitely give him a lock on the moslem vote.
