Obama team weighs Nunn, Edwards as running mates

clipped from news.aol.com
Former presidential candidate John Edwards and former Georgia Sen. Sam Nunn are on a list of potential running mates for Democrat Barack Obama, according to a Michigan
congresswoman.
Rep. Carolyn Cheeks Kilpatrick, who leads the Congressional Black Caucus, said Thursday members of her caucus suggested the two at a meeting with the officials vetting candidates. The vetting
team, Caroline Kennedy and Eric Holder, indicated the two were on the list.
Cheeks Kilpatrick said, "Former Sen. Sam Nunn's name has come up, as well as John Edwards' name has come up among our CBC members. I reported that to them and they had both of those names
on their list."
