Biden's running-mate in 2016

[Chronos]

The convention keynote speaker (of either party) is always going to be someone the party is grooming for bigger and better things, but that doesn't necessarily mean running for President in the very next election. Obama was rather remarkable in that regards, and even there, he already had a position rather higher than mayor. A mayor, especially a very young mayor, has a lot of room for bigger and better things before going straight for the top.

Not to hijack (he says while hijacking the thread), but who do y'all expect to be the keynote speaker for the Democratic Party convention this year?

That might give us some insight as to where the party leadership, such as it is, is looking to for the next election.

See gamerunknown's post. They've already announced that it's going to be Julian Castro, the mayor of San Antonio. The Republican keynote speaker will be Chris Christie.

Oops. Hate it when I ask an already answered question.
Thanks, Marley23.

I'm chuckling over the thought of President Joe Biden and Vice President Howard Dean. This is full employment job creation for the news services and comedians.
