Apple CEO Tim Cook was on Hillary's list of VP candidates

What do former Microsoft CEO Bill Gates, Vermont Sen. The same section also includes Melinda Gates, the Microsoft founder's wife, and former NY mayor and businessman Michael Bloomberg. It has Cook listed as a possible VP candidate pick by Podesta along with many other political, business and tech luminaries seen below. Tim Kaine of Virginia as her running mate, announcing her choice on July 22.

An email from Hillary Clinton's campaign chair John Podesta released in the recent WikiLeaks dump reveals a group of potential running mates considered by Clinton's campaign.

The Clinton campaign did not immediately return a request for comment about the authenticity of the Podesta email.

Podesta has said that he is in touch with federal investigators because of a hacking situation, although neither he nor FBI officials have confirmed the veracity of the messages posted to WikiLeaks.

Another group of names consists of black male politicians-former Gov. Deval Patrick of MA, former attorney general Eric Holder and Sen.

That email was sent in mid March, and by mid June the email trail says Mrs. Clinton and Mr. Cook were scheduling a one-on-one meeting. "I have organized names in rough food groups", Podesta wrote.

Clinton ultimately chose Sen.

Months before clinching the nomination, Clinton shared an email exchange with campaign manager Robby Mook in which the two complained that then-Democratic National Committee Chairwoman Debbie Wasserman Schultz had hired an executive to run the Democratic National Convention without consulting the Clinton campaign or apparently the White House.
