| - by user Mcs81986 Former Governor of Iowa Tom Vilsack's presidential campaign never took off. He barely got his name in the news except for the day he announced he was running for president and the day he announced he was dropping out of the race. Now his name has re-entered the news as he endorses Hillary Clinton, the junior senator from New York. Clinton appeals to the Northeast, parts of the Midwest, and Pacific Coast, as do most Democrats, but Vilsack is from one of the plain states and can appeal to middle America, giving Democratic party the votes it needs to win the national election.

| - by user Mcs81986 Former Governor of Iowa Tom Vilsack's presidential campaign never took off. He barely got his name in the news except for the day he announced he was running for president and the day he announced he was dropping out of the race. Now his name has re-entered the news as he endorses Hillary Clinton, the junior senator from New York. Clinton seems like the most likely, at this point, to win the nomination even with Barack Obama as close as he is in the polls. Seeing this, Vilsack's endorsement makes it seem that all along he was running for vice president. He plans on helping Clinton win the Iowa caucuses, one of the first caucuses in 2008, and plans to give her as much support as he can so his name can appear on the 2008 Democratic ticket. Clinton-Vilsack is not a terrible combination for winning the national election. Clinton appeals to the Northeast, parts of the Midwest, and Pacific Coast, as do most Democrats, but Vilsack is from one of the plain states and can appeal to middle America, giving Democratic party the votes it needs to win the national election. __NOEDITSECTION__ From The Opinion Wiki, a Wikia wiki.
