Barack Hussein Obama ‘Won’t Be Vice-President’

THE TELEGRAPH: Barack Obama yesterday rejected Hillary Clinton's suggestion that he stand as her vice-president on a Democratic "dream ticket".

After bouncing back from defeats last week to claim an easy victory in Wyoming at the weekend, Mr Obama said: "You won't see me as a vice presidential candidate. I'm running for president. 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."

In an interview with KTVQ television he added: "What I'm really focused on right now, because all that stuff is premature, is winning this nomination and changing the country," he said.

Mrs Clinton has repeatedly hinted that Mr Obama could join her on her ticket as a way of ending the current impasse over the nomination. Barack Obama 'won't be Hillary Clinton's vice president on dream ticket' >>> By Toby Harnden in Washington
