Kerry / Clinton ?

Both sides would be after him.

Picture a Kerry "plane crash", ala Wellstone, and the Dims saying they will wave the Constitution for Clintoon, resulting in an internal crisis, leading to chaos.

No, not even the Dims will go for that one.

Bill can be VICE-President...

Actually, Bill has already been VICE President...

But seriously folks, Bill is constitutionally ineligible to be President or Vice-President, since you must be eligible to assume the Presidency in order to be Vice-President.

So, quit worrying....about Bill Clinton, that is. The other one is a different story entirely.

Kerry's prostate cancer may yet make Xlinton President (again).

So what does that prove other than the vast majority of AOL users are brain dead?

>i>Bill can be VICE-President. ..now law against it.

Oh yes there is a law against it, the supreme law of the land is against. Of course, that hasn't bothered Clinton in the past but I think even he would have trouble with this one.

Kerry wants to run as the underdog. This sort of poll and the expected media coronation of Kerry is going to step on that big time.

As for VP: I read a rumor Richardson had turned it down...anyone know?

I saw him a couple of weeks ago on Fox and Friends, and he said unequivocally NO!!!

E.D. Asked him point blank, and he said "No, I was elected to serve a full term as N.M. Gov, and I will not accept the VP if offered." We know people have lied in the past, but to me it was pretty convincing.

I don't think the sinkmeister is constitutionally able to be president again.

Then you'd better read the Constitution.

The XXII Amendment creates a bar to election. It does not add "Ineligibilities" to Article II.

The ineligibilities are:

Under age 35

Not a natural-born US citizen (unless already a citizen in 1791)

Not resident in the United States for fourteen years prior to election.

No person who is Constitutionally ineligible to the office of President may be elected Vice-President.

Bill Clinton is NOT "Constitutionally ineligible".

He just can't be elected to the office of President.

And just where in the Constitution does it say that X42 is not "eligible to assume the office of President"?

Of course he is (He's over 35, born in the USA, and has lived here for the requisite 14 years prior to 2004).

He just can't be elected.

I can't believe anyone has formally been offered the spot already. Richardson has publicly denied interest in the position, but that means nothing IMO. I mean, what's he supposed to say?

People need to calm down.

If the Sink Emperor or his Beeyatch were to come on as the Veep, they would immediately overshadow John-John.

John-John has an enormous ego. Want to see how I know this? There is a picture of John Kerry running out of the surf in a wetsuit with a windsurf board in hand. It was taken by Annie Liebowitz. It was a campaign prop.

He cannot stand being overshadowed. If he is foolish enough to put the Hilly on his ticket, his goose is cooked.

Be Seeing You,

Chris

Kerry/Clinton 04 Get ready for it

I don't believe it will happen...
Susan Estrich (democratic strategist) summed it up very well on Greta's show...

Greta: Alright Susan, John Kerry - big winner tonight... Does this mean its the END of the Clinton domination of the democratic party? (Susan shaking her head YES and grinnning)

Greta: OR, are we going to see Hillary Rodham Clinton, perhaps as the candidate on the democratic party for the vice president?
(Susan, now shaking her head wildly NO)

Susan: NO! Is the short answer.

Susan: I have been WAITING for this question since Newt Gingrich, SAVIOR to democrats everywhere! ...said that, ...giving us our GREAT advice for the evening... my buddy Newt, and we get along very well, Newt and I... But he said, "ALL we needed to do, we Democrats, was to get Hillary on the ticket and THAT would answer ALL our problems."

Susan: ...and when I hear that from Newt, I know that I'm getting SPUN in eighteen directions. You know, its like ME telling you, WHO George Bush should put on his ticket, and PRETENDING (when I'm NOT telling you the truth), that I am.

Susan: Look, Hillary would be the WORST choice John Kerry could POSSIBLY make! (now counting on her fingers...) For Hillary, for the TICKET, and for John Kerry. Thats laughable... I mean, it would NOT ONLY violate HER promise to the people of New York, it would put the MOST DEVISIVE, most polarizing Democrat in the WORLD on the ticket, which is the violation of RULE #1 when you're picking a vice presidential candidate..

Susan: So NO, she is NOT going to be on the ticket.



...now my own feelings, is that Hillary's handlers will rig a 'Toricelli' or 'Wellstone' style event for mister Kerry about mid-September. (And Kerry will have the perfect excuse if he 'voluntarily' drops out. He can just say his Cancer has returned.)

Let's not forget too, what Wes Clark let slip out when his handlers weren't watching him... "the Kerry campaign will 'implode' as a result of an 'intern' issue." (he said that DAYS AFTER the journalist woman, so he wasn't talking about HER)

That's my understanding of the constitutional requirements for VP as well. So this particular scenario isn't a worry.

So, quit worrying....about Bill Clinton, that is. The other one is a different story entirely.

But I can still worry about Bill's other plots. I still think he's angling to replace Kofi Anan as Secretary General when Hillary gets to be Pres in '08. She can then cede sovereingty to the UN "in the name of world peace." And they would see to it that there's no term limits on Secretary General. Hillary could then assume the newly created (hereditary) office of Governor General of the North American Donor States and oversee that fair redistribution of the unjustly gotten treasure that we have stolen from the rest of the world.

If Democrats were to try this, you can expect them to suddenly become strict Constitutional literalists. For this issue.

Well, I think there are a whole lot of Americans who will have a '2nd' issue that it will end up being awful hard for them to stop in that case.

I love this! The morning after Kerry has bagged the Democrat nomination is one of the biggest primary season trounces in history and all people are talking about is...THE CLINTONS.

I can't believe his monumental ego or his wife's ambition would allow this. Could you see Hillary having to stand behind Mrs. Ketchup??
