| 释义 |
This article lists those who were potential candidates for the Democratic nomination for Vice President of the United States in the 1988 election. Massachusetts Governor Michael Dukakis won the 1988 Democratic nomination for President of the United States, and chose Texas Senator Lloyd Bentsen as his running mate. Dukakis chose Bentsen in order to appeal to Southerners and in hopes of carrying Bentsen's home state of Texas.[1] The choice of Bentsen caused some backlash from Jesse Jackson, who had wanted to be chosen as the vice presidential nominee, and progressives such as Ralph Nader.[2] Paul Brountas, a longtime Dukakis aide, led the search for Dukakis's running mate.[1] The Dukakis-Bentsen ticket would lose to the Bush-Quayle ticket in the general election. Coincidental to the presidential election, Bentsen won re-election as senator. Possible running matesFinal Seven
