WASHINGTON -
Former North Carolina Sen. John Edwards is on a list of potential running mates for Barack Obama, a congresswoman said Thursday, one day after she met with the team Obama has reviewing possible candidates.Rep. Carolyn Cheeks Kilpatrick, D-Mich., who leads the Congressional Black Caucus, said members of her caucus asked her to forward the names of Edwards and former Georgia Sen. Sam Nunn when she met Wednesday with Obama's vice presidential search team. The team, Caroline Kennedy and Eric Holder, indicated the two were on the list."We've been brainstorming in the Congressional Black Caucus. Former Senator Sam Nunn's name has come up, as well as John Edwards' name has come up among our CBC members. I reported that to them, and they had both of those names on their list," Kilpatrick said in an interview with The Associated Press.
