Was Tom Brokaw on Obama's veep list?

MR. BROKAW: Did you hear from a lot of people, including your own family members, about recommendations that they had or ideas that they might have had?

MS. KENNEDY: My family is so shy, you know?

MR. BROKAW: Yes, I can imagine.

MS. KENNEDY: Of--yeah, I did, and we really...

MR. BROKAW: There were no cousins who said, "Put my name out there."

MS. KENNEDY: Yeah, put my name on, yeah. No, "I know you're doing this to put your name on," that kind of thing. Yeah. No, there was a--you know, we reached out, obviously, I heard from my family, and I trust their judgment a lot. And then, you know, we went around and talked to a number of colleagues, groups, people who care, women, lots of different kinds of people, and then, you know, I did get a lot of unsolicited suggestions, a lot of people nominated themselves. Not you, but others, so, you know, your name came up.

MR. BROKAW: My name came up? In a dismissive and derisive fashion, of course.

MS. KENNEDY: Yeah, right.
