Someone needs to edit the Broward page to reflect that he was a serious contender for the Vice-Presidential nomination in 1908, but Bryan (a cousin of Governor Jennings) preferred someone else.

This race needs to be moved to the appropriate container. For some reason I can't figure out how to get it into the right place though - can someone else take a look?
