This article lists those who were potential candidates for the
Republican nomination for
Vice President of the United States in the
1996 election. Former Kansas Senator
Bob Dole won the
1996 Republican nomination for
President of the United States, and chose former
Secretary of Housing and Urban Development
Jack Kemp as his running mate. Dole chose Kemp as his running mate in order to solidify support among the conservative wing of the Republican Party, despite the mutual personal distaste the two candidates had for each other.
