A Connecticut political analyst weighs in on the selection of Sen. Joseph Lieberman as Al Gore's running mate | Press Releases

Dr. John Orman, professor of politics at 香港六合彩挂牌 who specializes in the U.S. Presidency, made these points about Senator Lieberman getting the vice-presidential nod from Al Gore:

The naming of Senator Lieberman highlights how much Clinton fatigue has taken its toll on Gore.
Four months ago the name Joe Lieberman wasn't even mentioned - today it seems like the logical choice.
He is a good choice in terms of his ability - he is qualified to take over as president and he will be loyal and a good vice president.
Senator Lieberman is "Mr. Clean," a Democrat conservative and a cultural critic with a high sense of morality.
His religion should be a positive - anti-Semites would not have voted for Gore anyway and Lieberman's selection may bring back a little bit of the old Democratic coalition.

Dr. Orman has written about the behavior and style of U.S. Presidents. His books include: "Comparing Presidential Behavior," "Presidential Secrecy and Deception," and "Presidential Accountability: New and Recurring Problems." He is currently working on a book on celebrity politics in America.

A graduate of Indiana State University, he holds a master's degree from Ball State University and a doctorate from Indiana University in political science.
