Responding to speculation about a joint ticket, Barack Obama says he will not play second fiddle to Hillary Clinton.

Obama told KTVQ in Billings, Mont., Friday: “You won’t see me as a vice presidential candidate.”

“I’m running for president,” he told the television station. “We have won twice as many states as Senator Clinton, and have a higher popular vote, and I think we can maintain our delegate count — but you know, what I’m really focused on right now, because all that stuff is premature, is winning this nomination and changing the country.”

Clinton herself has kept talk of a joint ticket alive, saying it’s a possibility.

Bill Clinton on Saturday (see below) even said the two Democrats would be an “unstoppable force” if they teamed up.

I don't see why he should agree to be VP if Hillary somehow manages to steal the nomination.

He can sit on the sideline for the next four years and criticize whoever's in office when it's to his advantage, and he can work with them when it makes sense as well.

Then, when the time comes, he can mobilize his hundreds of thousands of supporters/donors, and be unstoppable.

It'd never work, Hillary would quickly have Obama killed...

Silly boy, when the Clintons want you hit, you're hit-- even in prison...

Their reach is far greater than you realize... :D
