After writing and publishing a piece detailing why I view Dr. Peter Navarro as President Trump’s best choice for Vice President, I started a public petition to provide a platform for fellow Americans to express their support for Dr. Navarro as an outstanding vice presidential choice for President Trump.
Later, I connected with Dr. Navarro for the first time during his political imprisonment via a prison e-mail system, and conducted a wide-ranging interview that was published in the Daily Caller on June 14.
Beyond the topics covered in the Daily Caller piece, Dr. Navarro also responded to a question regarding President Trump’s running mate choice.
The question and Dr. Navarro’s answer are the following.
Your name has surfaced, particularly among the MAGA faithful, as a possible vice presidential choice. Who should Donald Trump pick as his running mate?
“As I wrote last year, my vision of the ideal Trump VP is an individual loyal to the man without sycophancy, loyal to the Trump agenda, excellent with the media, and a master of the policy process within the White House. Mike Pence wound up touching only one of those four bases (media).
While I check every box, I'm not going to be on any long or short list. My dark horse is former Congressman Sean Duffy -- and his wife Rachel would make a heck of a Second Lady. It would be interesting to see Senator Rick Scott in the conversation as well, but if he has a real shot at Senate Majority Leader -- we'll win back the Senate in 2024 -- he would be more important there moving the Trump agenda.”
In addition to providing Dr. Navarro’s response above, I would also like to give voice to fellow supporters, as I promised my petition would do.
The following are some of the comments from petition signers, including their names, cities, and states.
Thank you to all who participated.

“Economics is everything, and Dr. Navarro approaches problems with this paradigm. As well, Dr. Navarro is extremely measured yet proactive; and Peter's superb intelligence, discipline, and experience in combination with unflinching patriotism enables organized success.

Gotta love Peter Navarro. But, Mr. Navarro says he is not on any long or short list. Gave his choice as Sean Duffy. Respectfully don't agree---limited experience. Don't think the Duffy's would want to put their young kids through the harsh scrutiny of the media & the any means justifies the end of the Dems who have no bottom. IMO, Duffy not good Prez material for 2028.
My VP choice would be Doug Bergum. Very successful in tech business. Governor & Senator. Very Intelligent. Loves America & Democracy. Knows gov't policy & how DC works. Dedicated to MAGA. Likes Trump & gets along with him. Whenever I see or hear Gov. Bergum, I sense an unflappable almost Lincoln like quality about him. Great Prez candidate for 2028. Not seeing that much in others.
What can I add? I agree! This article outlines all reasons President Trump NOT look at the people being promoted by the deep state.

Approaching the VP selection is not only important for the creation of a synchronized team but also as a life insurance policy. If Peter Navarro will be second in the succession line they will think twice before harming President Trump. Not so much some of the other options who were former “Never Trumpers.”
