Rob Portman, although I hope he doesn't do it.

Second choice is Scott Brown.
 
Dennis Hastert or Caitlyn Jenner
 
It has to be Palin.

Rick Scott of Florida IMO would be the safest move, but he is not on the list. Picked Kasich, only cause all the other choices made NO sense. Kinda obvious a conservative had nothing to do with this poll or thread. Just being honest.

That's what the "other" option is for.
 
I am changing my guess to Eric Cantor, almost all of the benefits of Boehner, fewer liabilities, and I have come to believe that Boehner does not have the fight left in him.
 
Thinking outside the box Sheriff David Clark would be an interesting pick.

Bio from Wikipedia:
Clarke was born in the Milwaukee to Jeri and David Clarke Sr., a former paratrooper with the 2nd Ranger Infantry Company.[1] He attended Marquette University High School.

He went on to earn a degree in Criminal Justice Management from Concordia University Wisconsin, graduating summa cum laude. In 2003, Concordia University named him Wisconsin Alumnus of the Year. His postgraduate work includes graduating from the FBI National Academy and the National Executive Institute in Quantico, Virginia; completing the Program for Senior Executives in State and Local Government at Harvard University’s John F. Kennedy School of Government; Driving Government Performance: Leadership Strategies that Produce Results at Harvard University’s John F. Kennedy School of Government; and studying with Police Chief William Bratton and L.A. County Sheriff Lee Baca.[3]

His career in law enforcement began in 1978 at the Milwaukee Police Department (MPD). After 11 years as a patrol officer, Clarke was promoted to Detective, making the Homicide Division less than 1 year later. In 1992, Clarke was again promoted to Lieutenant of Detectives. The next step was becoming Captain of Police for the MPD in 1996. In 1999, Clarke took over the post of Commanding Officer for MPD's Intelligence Division. Clarke then became Milwaukee County Sheriff in 2002, currently holding the same post.
 
I heard that he has Ben Carson on the committee to select his VP. I admire Dr. Carson, but I'm sorry, that's as ridiculous as Obama having Caroline Kennedy on his selection committee. Carson isn't qualified to do this IMO.
 
Being more realistic, I could see him naming Christie as VP and Giuliani as chief of staff. Maybe it could put him over the top in New York. If I was him I'd try hard to convince Mark Cuban and Marcus Lemonis to become part of administration on reinventing government bureaucracy. I know Lemonis is especially not a fan, and Cuban has recently doubted if Trump is up for the job but if Trump can use patriotism and convince them he is clay that can be molded, maybe he could get them on board. Make all these appointments early in campaign would help him in election. If this disaster happens, speaking of trump being elected, I'm hoping he surrounds himself with smart people and they convince him to change on stuff like trade and immigration.
 
Trump needs a lot of help. I hope someone advises him not to do what Truman did if similar circumstances arises, someone with a higher moral compass. It would be great if he'd be advised on the green economy by Musk and Doerr. He needs a lot of help in not being such a polarizing figure. I wish there was a great third party candidate. I'm struggling with the choice of Hilary and Trump.
 
I didn't think Mark Cuban would be interested in VP position but according to the link below he may be interested. That would be a homerun for Trump. I still don't think I could vote for Trump but Cuban would be an interesting pick.

Yeah I'd be surprised if he would accept VP. I agree with Cuban as far as accepting VP if Trump would listen to him. I think Cuban would add a lot as far as possibly modernizing government bureaucracies, technology, and free trade.
