I'm happy with any of the following:
Webb
Richardson
Clark
Hagel (though I'd be shocked if he accepted)
Rendell
Probably in that order too. I think Webb and Clark bring military credibility to the ticket and Richardson has a ton of experience.
I don't know enough about Sibelius to really have an opinion.
I'd also like to second Will's thought of hoping, if elected, Obama reaches across to the conservatives for at least some of his staff. All this us against them BS is getting old.

So yes, he can't be elected to the presidency more than twice, but he can serve as vice president and can even assume the job if the president has to leave office. He just can't be elected at the end of his final term.

I believe this is correct.
