I learned that the American people are pretty great people. And they are just poorly served by their leadership, and Washington's very much out of touch with the struggles of ordinary Americans.

This guy is totally unorthodox. Maybe he`s flipping coins or playing three-card Monty to see who he wants to pick. Donald Trump is so unorthodox that I think it`s almost impossible to have any reasonable prediction about who he`s going to pick for the Vice-President.
