Obama-Schweitzer?
Now that's an intriguing idea - and very Obama:
Schweitzer is a hell of a smart guy. A soil
scientist and rancher, he spent 6 years in Saudi Arabia working on
irrigation projects. He speaks fluent Arabic and has an intuitive grasp
of the region based on real life experience. Certainly that would open
him up to the sleazy email "Manchurian Candidate" stuff, especially as
the radical Islamic Hussein Osama's running mate. But I have a feeling,
knowing Schweitzer, he'd be asked about it and his response would have
people slapping their foreheads in laughter with, "Yes! That's the
perfect reply!"
As far as other stats, Schweitzer is one of Al Giordano's Catholic governors.
He is known for energy policy, which aligns with Obama's comments about
wanting to find a running mate with executive experience and energy
policy expertise.
