Republican Party of Texas convention delegates informally nominated Alan Keyes as their preference for Vice President. I personally believed Jack Kemp was removed from the crowd he was appealing to and that Pat Buchanan would have helped unify the party but it appeared there was bad blood between Dole and Buchanan. Other politicians named as possible GOP VP nominees before Kemp was selected included: Lamar Alexander, George Allen, Dick Armey, John Ashcroft, James Baker, David Beasley, Bill Bennett, etc.
