I'll see your general and raise you an admiral! Hillary vets a 4-star flag officer for veep after Trump hints at picking army intelligence guru


Presumptive Democratic U.S. presidential nominee Hillary Clinton's campaign is vetting retired Navy Admiral James Stavridis, pictured left, as a potential vice presidential running mate, a source with knowledge of the process confirmed to Reuters on Tuesday.


Stavridis is dean of the Fletcher School of Law and Diplomacy at Tufts University near Boston and a former supreme allied commander of NATO. Republican Donald Trump could also pick a decorated veteran as his No. 2. Retired Lieutenant General Michael Flynn, pictured right, is said to be in the GOP's mix. Both candidates are expected to announced their running mates at their political parties' respective conventions in Cleveland next week - Republicans - and Philadelphia the week after - Democrats.
