I'm coming to a preliminary conclusion: what I want most in a President and Vice-President is somebody that's smarter than me. err, "Someone who is smarter than I." Still. Not necessarily older, not necessarily a match to me in race or gender or religion. Really, not necessarily someone I agree with all of the time. Or a great speechmaker, warrior, lawyer, or even diplomat. Just brains, and clue, and honesty.

agreed, smarter is good - better than what we've had lately for candidates.

The problem is that for many of the people I've met over the years, these candidates are smarter. You run in a bright & educated crowd and are a bright lady yourself. You also have the ever rare "common sense."

Given this is a fantasy conversation, concern for the greater good and some social skills would also be nice.
