June 17, 2008 - Dear Senator Obama,
Congratulations on becoming the democratic nominee for the 2008 presidential election! Now you face the daunting task of picking the perfect running mate. It's a difficult decision, one that could polarize your supporters and ultimately lose you the election. That's why I'd like...
