The next elected POTUS will be a woman, It may be Lynne Cheney or Melinda Gates or hopefully
Hillary. It is simple the GOP will match and raise us at their brokered convention.

A Bloomberg run against two women would not be a wise political choice, so instead of picking Melinda Gates as his VP he joins his and their $ to back her for top slot.(unless the coming depression cleans out their funds).

So let's wakeup and smell the coffee.

6. Do you honestly believe that any of their parade of clowns are their real candidates.
They have a match ready for whoever we nominate. It is the old bait and switch. 60 days before the election, no time to react or adjust and the announcement will suck all the O2 out off our media efforts.

11. Every one of those clowns is a more viable candidate than Dubya was.
Disregard them at your peril, because there's a very good chance
one of them will be the next President.

23. Umm... yes I believe these are their candidates.
And if you believe they're going to sandbag us with Lynne Cheney, again, I want some of what you're smoking.

5. I would really like the first woman president of the United States to
be someone like Barbara Boxer who came up through the ranks. The wife of a powerful politician doesn't cut it for me, even if she did some senator stuff in between. The thought of Lynne Cheney going into politics and gaining any elected office sends chills up and down my spine. I have flashbacks of the Peronistas.

8. L Cheney has been in the cabinet, not sure about congress, at one time.
But don't you see how they will play the spouse angle too.

10. I think he is the Obama match, and CJ Roberts is the Edwards match.

9. Don’t you think that Democratic people should reach for a much higher standard than to allow the
corporately owned conservative biased M$M fraud and propaganda machine choose their candidates for them.

And believe me, Hillary doesn’t want the American people to wake up any more than Gorge Bush, because their kind could never be elected as dog catcher in a fair Democratic election.

13. I don't know why you keep pushing this so hard....
there's no chance either one will be nominated.

Lynne Cheney has never held an elective office, and her husband is one of the most disliked men in American politics. Melinda Gates has never expressed even the slightest interest in electoral politics.

15. I though she was Sect of Labor. Why, because I believe this is what is going
on and if we don't look at these possibilities we will lose this election.

16. No
she's never been Secretary of Labor. You might be thinking of Elaine Cho, Mitch McConnell's wife.

18. And she was Chair of the
National Endowment for the Humanities - in an administration that wanted to do away with that agency.


She will never even be considered for national office. You're a fun guy, but your ideas on this are just never going to happen.

21. I don't know that there's any provision
to keep the markets from opening.

But I wonder what Tina Turner's doing today, as long as we're switching subjects.

22. And that alone makes her more unsuitable for public office than even the name "Cheney"
It's time to crush all those treasonous "think tanks" (i.e. fascist warmongers) and throw the traitors in prison.

25. No, didn't you read the whole thread?
John Roberts will be the nominee if we pick John Edwards. If we pick Obama, they'll pick Samuel L. Jackson, and his running mate will be Linda Carter.

Now, all bets are off if Mars is in retrograde. We could end up with a Donald Trump/Connie Stevens ticket.
