Just looking at what the people in this country voted for twice in a row will leave you thinking its a possibility but I say not in a snowballs chance in hell in my lifetime will that happen. I would vote for both of them if your wondering.

"Other than"? What more experience do you want? Other than VP, being a governor is arguably the closest thing to being a president.

No votes for Condoleezza Rice? - not that I'd vote for her (for reasons I've already stated) but her resume is as good or better than any President in the past 100 years. - if the Reps were smart (they ain't!) they'd nominate CR and continue the political whuppin' they've been dealing out to the Dems for another 4+ years. - soon as the Dems started any sort of negative campaigning the Reps would whip out the race card as fast as the Dems ever have. - like I keep saying, if you think there's any difference whatsoever between the 2 sides then whether you vote Dem or Rep, you deserve whoever wins.

VOTE 3RD PARTY, FOLKS! BREAK THE VICIOUS CYCLE!

Condie is:
a) woman
b) black
c) has no family life
d) been accused of being a closet lesbian
e) many find her annoying

She will not appeal to traditional Republicans. They'd vote Hillary over her imo.
That being said, I have no real beef with Condi except for her involvement in this administration.

Condi has already said that she 100% will not run for president.

uh huh.. and we all know how politicians mean what they say.

anywho, I'm not so convinced the US isn't ready for a minority in the office. How 'bout Colin Powell? Anyone think he'd have a chance?

I really like Powell. Although the problem with throwing all these names out is that you don't know where they stand on policies as they are never in the position to speak out against things. Although this could be a good thing as people knew where kerry stood on the issues (well, sorta )

Obama has the charisma, but I fear there would be a backlash by those not mature enough for a black president. I only play the race card because it would be a factor in the way many voted. The same with Hillary. I'd vote for either of them.

the fact that Obama doesn't have a chance has nothing to do with his race and everything to do with the fact that he's left-wing and has little-to-no experience.

Hillary has only been in the senate for 1 term, but she's already ran the White House for 8 years

Oh for you and me that's the case, however, for many people it still matters.

"She will not appeal to traditional Republicans. They'd vote Hillary over her imo. ".....uh, no they wouldn't..................

No wonder Democrats lose...Steeplerot and other liberals are voting third party

Anybody from Indiana who can comment on Bayh?

 

[filterxg]

I'm from Florida and let me say Jeb is more like 41 not 43. But he shouldn't consider running till at least 2016. My ticket is John McCain - JC Watts. Though I think McCain - Lindsey Graham is much more likely.

 

[Mrpilot007]

How about Rush Limbaugh - Sean Hannity

Nobody from the oil or pharmaceutical industry, that's all I ask!

I'm trying to get a job in the oil and gas industry right now...don't harp on it too badly

Edit: have a job now, not in oil and gas; but still a staunch supporter of the industry.

 

[Stunt]

Bayh has been in the news more recently...any new comments on this ticket?

 

[sandorski]

Hmm, Surplusses then Tax Cuts? A Real Conservative with brains in the Democratic Party. Who'd a thunk it.

Kinda reminds me of someone else, eh Stunt?

 

[Stunt]

Hah! funny stuff sandorski :laugh:

Should i bite on that...hrmmmm.

how about the 2 biggest douchebags in the country

oh wait, thats the same ticket....

 

[Stunt]

Bump

 

[NJDevil]

What are Richardson's stance on issues? I really like Bayh, he was one of the 15 senators who voted for cutting funding for the bridge to nowhere and give that to the relief efforts.

 

[Steeplerot]

Jello Biafra/Henry Rollins 08!

 

[TNM93]

Someone fresh / someone fresh. I would rather see an up and coming governor take the helm than a cynical capitol hill senator. Also, someone less partisan and who actually represents the people, rather than a slim majority. Unfortunately, people vote based on wedge issues nowadays, so slim majority presidents will be the norm in the future.

 

[Steeplerot]

Fresh?

Jello Biafra's "I have a Dream"

(Biafra and Nader got 3% in 2000) :shocked:

His line item taxation would be amazing.
