Labrador wants Cruz as VP nominee

Idaho 1st District Congressman Raul Labrador, who will be going to the national GOP convention in Cleveland as a Ted Cruz delegate, called today for Donald Trump to choose Cruz as his running mate. Labrador said that would take “the two guys who got about 70 percent of the votes in just about every primary, every caucus … and bring the team together. That would be historic, it would be something akin to what Abraham Lincoln did when he brought a team of rivals together”/Betsy Russell, Eye on Boise. More here.

Question: Is Congressman Labrador correct? Would Trump's pick of Sen. Ted Cruz as his VP running mate bring the national GOP together?
