Tim Cook Was Named to Hillary Clinton's List of Vice Presidential Candidates

[RogerWilco]

Yeah, she certainly didn't help sanction Iran, kill bin Laden, manage the State Department when they saw over 50% growth in exports to China, touched nearly every foreign policy in Obama's second term, the SCHIP program which expanded health coverage to millions of lower-income children, rebuild alliances with the EU and Asia after Buch presidency hurt many of them, the Pediatric Research Equity Act......

Yeah, she's spent the entire time as Secretary of State working on her presidential run.

Your list left out HRC's tacit approval of the ethnic cleansing in Libya where "our guys" (now ISIS) murdered entire villages of dark-skinned folks, over 25,000 souls. Yeah, she's the real deal, a sociopath you can count on!

 

[SeattleMoose]

Kim K or Paris H on the list? May as well shoot completely for the bottom....

 

[trainwrecka]

Oh, Amazon... Remember the iBooks drama? We got some news for you.

 

[Solomani]

Hillary you can have Tim, please take him! Please please please please please!!!

But on the condition that you allow those South Korean Genetic Scientists to clone Steve Jobs back from the dead. They already proved that they can successfully clone sheep, donkeys and chupacabras. Steve Jobs is the next logical step.

"It is not as if Hillary Clinton as Secretary of State and the US foreign policy establishment in general did not know what was happening. An earlier WikiLeaks release of a State Department cable sent under her name in December 2009 states that “Saudi Arabia remains a critical financial support base for al-Qaeda, the Taliban, LeT [Lashkar-e-Taiba in Pakistan].” But Saudi complicity with these movements never became a central political issue in the US. Why not?"

Maybe because they were giving millions of dollars to the Clinton Foundation???

Doubt if Tim would take the pay cut.

With news of the not-so-secret secret Apple Car being cancelled, the pipeline more or less collapsed. That seemed to be "IT" for at least a couple of years now. And poof, it's gone.

I don't have any inside information, I see the same leaks and rumors we all do, but it would appear they still have other interesting technologies outside the iPhone in the pipeline. VR, AR, AI, machine learning, possible home assistant device, etc... Apple has recognized that smartphones have (or are near to) plateaued, they've already emphasized their push further into services as their next path to grow. Tim Cook has talked about excitement around VR and AR in interviews. Competition to Echo and Google Home has been rumored. Titan may have garnered headlines but I see them having many projects in the works that push outside of the traditional iPhone.

If Tim Cook becomes the US Vice President, while still remaining head of Apple, y'all officially have my permission to roll your eyes.

Steve Jobs was an animal.

Her staff did that. Huma and Hillary where in the car behind all the ambassadors doing what I said earlier - planning her presidential run.

Is Bill Gates a Democrat? I thought he was a Republican.

 

[BornAgainMac]

She doesn't look like that picture anymore.

 

[wxman2003]

Steve Jobs would be telling her she's holding it wrong.

 

[Chupa Chupa]

Of course it was only an honorary mention, but what a coup for Apple if he was picked and accepted. Finally it would have a easy out. Heh.

there's the selling of 20% uranium. The fiasco with money management in Haiti,... Just watch Clinton Cash on youtube and you'll get why your candidate isn't regarded as above board.

 

[George Dawes]

Proof if it were needed that Cook is all about the $$$

Social conscience ? Tell that to the scumbags who rule the world

 

[El Hikaru]

I would be very proud to see Tim as our Vice President.

iGovernment - It just works

WikiLeaks has leaked yet another email from Hillary Clinton presidential campaign chairman John Podesta that reveals Apple CEO Tim Cook was among a list of candidates for Vice President of the United States, alongside Microsoft co-founder Bill Gates, former New York City mayor Michael Bloomberg, former Democratic presidential candidate Bernie Sanders, and dozens of others.

In August, Cook hosted a fundraising event for the Hillary Victory Fund, a committee that contributes to the Clinton campaign, the Democratic National Committee, and 38 state parties. Cook, along with Apple environmental chief Lisa Jackson, acted as private citizens, not as representatives of Apple. Cook has demonstrated support for both Democrats and Republicans.

It would fit right in with the "gate" scandals.

Mmm... Food groups.

Whew! Glad we dodged that one!

People should not read too much into this.

This was the everyone-and-the-kitchen-sink list they start with, just to have something to work with as they cut it down.

It is a slow afternoon.

I am curious what someone's gender and sexual orientation have to do with competence or "coolness". It sounds awfully sexist and sexual-oreintation-ist to consider this as some sort of qualification - or disqualification - when the only things that matter are competence.

First gay vice president along with the first woman president would have been pretty cool. However, I am not sure he would be a good president if something happened to Clinton. He is too quiet but he has good principles and that is important in any leader. I do admire him but he has no government experience and I feel you need that to be a good leader.

 

[JeffyTheQuik]

Tim, I pick you for VP.

Now Tim, you go defend my pick!

If indeed, Tim was on the list, I still wouldn't vote for her.

apple watch Hillary Clinton edition

Except when an embassy is under attack. Then, it auto-snoozes.

Honestly, I didn't even think 'gay' when I read the article. As for those other qualities you mention, I think they are excellent properties to have as a leader.

No. Very much no. Come to Washington and see who he supports. His charity is awesome, and they do awesome things with his money that he gave to it, but that's on him. I don't like to see what he wants others to do with my money.

 

[v0lume4]

The media is so dishonest about me, they're so dishonest. They are totally controlled by the special interests.



All jokes aside, Clinton is not worth it. She'd do great as a activist for a feminism group maybe, but as a President? I doubt that. xD

Agreed. Not too happy about the fact that she is (supposedly) leading in the polls by the margin that she is.

 

[apolloa]

Don't think he could be any worst then Trump.... Perhaps Cooks given up on Apple to peruse a political career, whilst he's still running Apple. Hiding this under the swathes of watch bands he release...
