I can't see the front-runner and odds-on favourite settling for VP. That 
would be equally true if Clinton was in the lead. There might be too 
much water under the bridge for those two to be on the same ticket, no 
matter what. But isn't there some way to broker a compromise, whether 
it's a joint ticket or a strategic withdrawal?

My concern is that as a resident of the planet, I seriously want to see 
the Republicans out of the White House. The current guy is an idiot and 
a liar, who has got you into an unwinnable war with way over 100,000 
dead, and has plunged the U.S. into an unnecessary recession that is 
also engulfing Canada and may well involve the whole world. How can you 
possibly elect that party's next candidate? It's clearly the other guys' 
turn. 

I would be perfectly happy with either the first female U.S. president, 
or the first black U.S. president. I don't see how either of them has 
dibs on the nomination without winning it fair and square. But the one 
and only way the Repubs could win the White House again is if those two 
tear the Democratic Party apart fighting for the nomination, which they 
seem to be well on the way to doing. 

Isn't there some way out of this?
