I doubt it.

If someone likes Trump why wouldn't they love Sarah Palin?

Since we have a plethora of delusional Trumpbots on our forum, I guess we need some delusional Berniebots too

Schwarzenegger can't be VP since he's ineligible to be POTUS. He was born in Germany or Austria.

I picked Palin. She's still "hot" enough for the Buffoonanator and they speak the same language.

Of the options available only Paul is a good choice for VP. I'm not a trump supporter, but Palin would push me farther away. Paul could get some of the non mainstream Republicans to give Trump another look. Palin doesn't really bring anything to the table, Paul only brings a little more. I know Kasich isn't popular to Trump supporters, but having a popular politician in a swing state would be great for Trump. Ohio could make or break the election and Kasich would bring the state their way. Anyway, I'd vote for a popular politician or simply a popular person in a swing state. Neither Paul or Palin are in swing states, but Paul would bring some disenfranchised voters.

Seriously? Gingrich is so establishment, it's not funny. He never left Washington after he left Congress. He stayed around as an "advisor." He's been there forever -- having lunch with Rummy, etc.

I didn't want to include mainstream republicans

I thought Newt Gingrich was a ridiculous choice. I don't understand why some people are listing him. He is a joke.

I can understand where you're coming from - but Spkr Gingrich is essentially the front runner from all of the GOP flap circles.
