Ben Carson, who for whatever reason is still getting press listed some possible names to be Donald Trump’s running mate. One of which is Ted Cruz. We haven’t heard much from Cruz since he suspended his campaign in Indiana, but would he ever considered being Trump’s VP pick after all the nastiness and vitriol the two spewed at each other during the campaign? Another name mentioned is Marco Rubio, who has already said he is not interested. Even Sarah Palin is mentioned as a possible Trump VP pick, which would be a complete and utter disaster.

Dr. Ben Carson confirmed five people on presumptive GOP presidential nominee Donald Trump’s list of potential vice presidential running mates in a recent interview.
Former Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin, the 2008 VP running mate to John McCain, was one of the five Carson said was on the list. The rest are all former 2016 GOP presidential candidates: Trump’s closest competitor Sen. Ted Cruz, Ohio Gov. John Kasich, Sen. Marco Rubio, and New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie.
Carson named the VP contenders to the Washington Post during a car ride with his wife Candy to a TV interview. Carson has been traveling as a spokesman for Trump. He has also been placed on a committee working on pinning down a running mate for the real estate mogul turned GOP presumptive presidential nominee.
