Hypothetical Presidential Elections 2008

a while ago i came to the horrid conclusion that its possible that i might be voting republican in 08 fear

the reason being the thought that the race could possibly (tragically) be hillary clinton and john mccain. has anyone else pondered this dreaded possibility? if so.........ponder

and when you are done, vote...and if you wish, discuss.

Oh,
A win win if I ever saw one...
Dunno who i'd vote for...

Jesus. He used guns, so it's logical to assume he'd be running as a Republican. That leaves Satan running as a Democrat.

(Oddly enough, some people might believe that this was accurate or that I had mixed up the candidates and their respective parties.)

from what i've observed, john mccain is more progressive and liberal than hilary clinton

John McCain is the only republican i would ever support.

that's great! I turn 18 in 2008! I'm voting for hilary!

edit: HEY !! i'm the only person voting hilary?!
You guys suck! big ol balls!

I really don't know either of their positions well enough to offer a comparitive analysis. I would have to research them both before voting.

I agree hes the only republican I would throw my vote out for...but i dont think Hilary would run in 08, not against a guy like McCain. it would be too much of a tight race

itd be cool to have her in office though...shed kick some real ass!

Same. If it turns out that I like McCain's stances better than I do Hilary's, then, well, I'll be voting Republican.

i would much rather see obama run for office.
but the dems are stupid and choose gimmicks.
i believe hillary will get the nomination simply on
the grounds that she's a woman.
thus putting kerry ahead of edwards just so they
can play the war veteran card. i think hillary is a lowlife,
and in the pocket of the current administration.
hillary is just another neo-con dressed up as a liberal imho.

:edit: oops misread a post

Obama's not going to run in 2008....I think he'll wait a little while longer. Maybe 2012.

However, I'd very much like to see him run for president as well.

who knows if we'll still have a democracy in 2012 😖

Well, that all depends on who gets elected in 2008....

Thank god there is a limit in the US.

IN Canada we have no limit but we can have elections at various times.
Chretien went for 10 years (1993-2003)
Mulroney for 9 years (1984-1993) Thank god he left!
Trudeau for 15 years (1968-1979, 1980-1984)
King 21 years (he was ruling as long as a king 1921-1930, 1934-1948
Laurier (could have gone forever if he wasn't stupid) 1896-1911
McDonald 19 years (founding father) 1867-1873, 1878-1891

Were there any American presidents that lasted forever?

Hillary? Ich! Hell no.

*sniff* i'm all alone here... i support her all the way!

Why, exactly?

just because she's a woman....i should really find out more about both though shouldn't i?... 😄

Only Roosevelt. He was President for four terms. After that, the constitution was changed so that a president could only serve two terms. The two term precedent was established by Washington, but only made law after Roosevelt.
