Nikki Haley’s Endgame Is Obviously the White House

Jonathan Bernstein: “Nikki Haley says she is running for president, but a few political observers including a potential opponent have suggested that she might actually be angling for the vice presidential spot on the GOP ticket. There could be more than a tinge of sexism in the speculation about Haley, though it’s something commonly said of longshot presidential candidates. It’s also nonsense.”

“While we can’t know what’s in the mind of candidates, it’s safe to assume that people who are willing to put themselves through the ordeal of a presidential campaign aspire to the top job. And as they probably know, running for vice president by running for president is a foolish exercise.”
