2. his run would be nothing more than symbolic, like George McGovern's last run

if he wants to be in it, why not run for lower office?

Why not emmulate the great Jerry Brown and just run.
Being a talking head is great for the pocketbook, but you gotta be in it to do anything but yap

so why not run for senate or some house seat somewhere? Or Gov. or Mayor or something.

He could win a red seat somewhere, why not?

Of course, he could be Hillary45's VP. There are many people who could.
He would be one of them.

again, solely because of the party's makeup and the demographic change, it will not be a white male who is nominated in 2016.
It would be political suicide for the dems to do that, and they know that.
Again, solely based on the party itself and demographics.
