View Full Version : VP Threads et al should be in their own Sub-Forum

There's literally got to be dozens of threads about who Ron Paul's VP choice should be. All these threads are putting the cart squarely before the horse, which is fine for forum entertainment but distracting in a forum about the mobilization of grassroots.

Is there any way the mods could create a sub-forum for VP discussions, Cabinet discussions, theoretical post-nomination discussions, theoretical post-election discussions, theoretical post-Presidency discussions, theoretical post-America discussions, etc.?

Maybe it's me (and if it is, feel free to let this thread disappear in the static), but I feel those conversations aren't really about the Grassroots movement and therefore should be consolidated and energized into their own separate sub-forum. There's clearly a niche demand large enough to support such a sub-forum.

Great idea. I think it would quite popular, especially once andidates start dropping out. Maybe even draw in some outsiders when that happens as well...call me crazy but I really think Bachman is going to endorse...a pure selfish and vengeful move by her to seem rogue and kiss ass to the tea party while pissing off Perry and Romney...but she might want a position, where would u put her?

Should we come back to this thread to find out when we have permission to discuss VP options?

I guess we've never seen a candidate pick up a VP that wasn't thoroughly vetted in advance and then later regret that choice.

:rolleyes:
