She will probably go with someone like Cory Booker in an effort to create an "Obama II" vibe and to try to galvanize the black vote.

Voter enthusiasm among black people won't be as strong for clinton as it was for hussein obama, so she needs to have a running mate "of color" in order to ensure that obama's people show up at the polls en masse.

A guy like booker can create the right 'optics' without posing a threat to clinton or overshadowing her in any way.

There will never be an 'all-white' democrat presidential ticket again. It won't be acceptable to the radical leftist base to which they are now beholden.

I had a classmate in high school whose name was Castro, and he was Mexican-American.

Good. Castro makes Henry Cisneros look like a great man in comparison.

If I was a betting person, I might put money on Cory Booker.
