Clinton will have Obama for minority turnout. Not to mention the Clinton's a very popular with the AA community already. There's really no use pandering to a crowd that already supports you.

Her biggest problem is young voters, not minorities. And despite what people think, picking someone young has nothing to do with younger support, as Bernie proved. They want a message and Warren provides her with that.

This is from an AJ/MSNBC journalist:

@Alan_O1984 FBI sources expect her to be indicted, believe evidence + laws are clear. DOJ sources say no. All on James Comey.

Re @HillaryClinton camp spinning MSM now on case direction. Might ease public optics of today. Could antagonize Comey @FBI. #notsmart

Should we actually start to worry now?

This was before the interview even happened, and other sources disputed this.

The sources say that there was no intent yet, but if she gave any suspicion in her interview then they would maybe have some evidence. I don't know if they are just trying to calm everyone down, but Biden, Cory Booker, and Sherrod Brown yesterday and today said they don't think she will be indicted. I just don't see how POTUS and VP don't have insiders telling them stuff in their ears.

If Warren isn't VP, Al Franken would be my second choice. He would be good at dragging Trump.

I don't see black turnout being very high for one, i think Obama maxed that one out in 2012. Probably low 50s.
Hispanic turnout will probably be a bit higher i guess bc of Trump but the effect of the hispanic vote is exaggerated.

Sorry I think you're wrong. Turnout probably won't max Obama, but it will still be high. Trump will bring them out.

People close to her say Kaine is the #1 pick right now. Then Elizabeth. And then Julian. They are being seriously vetted, and I don't see it not being one of the three. Convention is 3 weeks away.

Kaine is so boring! Sad! I want high enthusiasm Liz!

Both of them are better than unqualified Julian though.

[King Maxx]

Kaine is like the Democratic version of Kasich.

Cleveland spending fivefold up from normal convention's protest insurance (worth $50 million): X

[Bloo]

She had better not pick Kaine. It would be such a boring, uninspiring pick. I'm still hoping for Warren.

In the meanwhile, this video by MSNBC's Rachel Maddow was actually really interesting in the analysis of VP picks.

I'm so tired of these children that just mass dislike YouTube videos of people that endorsed Hillary. It's so embarrassing.

Both Warren + Kaine will depress minority turnout.

Warren will drive the 1/32nd Native American vote.

It's going to make her election all the better, in my opinion.

I really would like Al Franken as Veep. I would scream a lot

Moreso Kaine than Warren.
Warren will excite progressives in a bunch of reliably blue non-competitive states i guess. No advantage in swing states. Kaine has no charisma.
Both are flawed.

Kaine speaks fluent spanish and the Latino base would love him. You tried though

[Cheetos]

I want Kaine or Franken. I would love a Hispanic but idk about their experience

If Hillary chose a latino as her VP do you think he wouldn't have enough experience to be president ? The Clinton campaign would only select the most highly respected and qualified candidate.

Good for you.

But i'm talking about AA turnout specifically.

Hillary is doing well with the AA community as it is, Trump is going to also help encourage AA voters to get out and vote against, and Obama has yet to start campaigning. I don't see an issue.

[TaggedGalaxy]

Hopefully she doesn't choose a hispanic for the hispanic vote, since she already has the majority of that on lock.

Oh i didnt know the AA vote was the only vote that mattered when it came to people of color. Forgive me.
