I'm beginning to think Pat Oliphant has a position on all this...But I really can't see any American, even from the most damaged part of US society, actually trying to assassinate Obama. It is the 21st century, surely. No-one's that mad. But whatever, as long as she's not the one pulling the trigger, Hillary as VP might be the best insurance policy Obama could have.

I'm pretty certain that now, in the 21st Century, Americans are better than that.
& I really don't want to be proven wrong.
