... seriously? We can't come up with anything better/different than Jeb and Hillary?
The son and brother of Former President's (seriously... are we to the point where only a Bush can make it possible to have a Republican in the White House)....
And the wife of a Former President? (what shall we call Bill? Still Mr. President I guess....)
Please, other countries out there, don't take us seriously, we obviously don't take ourselves seriously either...
Other countries? Yeah whatever. Hillary and Jeb are both very well qualified to be President. What is it you are looking for in a President...I'm guessing you'll look at their qualifications and go in another direction but seriously...what is the quality they are lacking?
Me personally?
It's impossible for the kind of leader we need for this country to be in the White House.
In order to get anything done, you have to be corrupt. I am not knowledgeable enough to speak to specifics, but, common sense dictates some things and the fact that we have to keep going back to the same old wells speaks volumes.
Oh okay so I didn't know Donald Trump actually officially threw his hat in the ring... boy I'm slow....

They've stolen far more money than John Gotti and Al Capone combined, even adjusted for inflation. They are the most successful crime family in history.
i only read what was highlighted and bolded l. I can't tell she was on to something. But really, what I read isnt enough to explain how a person who knows truly what's wrong with the country and can explain the problem and solutions adequately with enough wherewithal to secure enough media coverage that the public won't come to know them. It's a contradiction to say the ablest of people don't become an presidents. It's just that simple... The ablest do become presidents where their 'ables' (abilities) are actually whatever it takes to secure the electoral votes. Whoever wins any election was the ablest in that regard at leastI will let Alexis de Tocqueville tell you exactly why:Come on do you really think there are better candidates? Why aren't they running then?
On my arrival in the United States I was surprised to find so much distinguished talent among the citizens and so little among the heads of the government. It is a constant fact that at the present day the ablest men in the United States are rarely placed at the head of affairs; and it must be acknowledged that such has been the result in proportion as democracy has exceeded all its former limits. The race of American statesmen has evidently dwindled most remarkably in the course of the last fifty years.
Now pay attention to this next part, because he really nails it:
Several causes may be assigned for this phenomenon. It is impossible, after the most strenuous exertions, to raise the intelligence of the people above a certain level. Whatever may be the facilities of acquiring information, whatever may be the profusion of easy methods and cheap science, the human mind can never be instructed and developed without devoting considerable time to these objects.
The greater or lesser ease with which people can live without working is a sure index of intellectual progress. This boundary is more remote in some countries and more restricted in others, but it must exist somewhere as long as the people are forced to work in order to procure the means of subsistence; that is to say, as long as they continue to be the people. It is therefore quite as difficult to imagine a state in which all the citizens are very well informed as a state in which they are all wealthy; these two difficulties are correlative. I readily admit that the mass of the citizens sincerely wish to promote the welfare of the country; nay, more, I even grant that the lower classes mix fewer considerations of personal interest with their patriotism than the higher orders; but it is always more or less difficult for them to discern the best means of attaining the end which they sincerely desire. Long and patient observation and much acquired knowledge are requisite to form a just estimate of the character of a single individual. Men of the greatest genius often fail to do it, and can it be supposed that the common people will always succeed? The people have neither the time nor the means for an investigation of this kind. Their conclusions are hastily formed from a superficial inspection of the more prominent features of a question. Hence it often happens that mountebanks of all sorts are able to please the people, while their truest friends frequently fail to gain their confidence.
Moreover, democracy not only lacks that soundness of judgment which is necessary to select men really deserving of their confidence, but often have not the desire or the inclination to find them out. It cannot be denied that democratic institutions strongly tend to promote the feeling of envy in the human heart; not so much because they afford to everyone the means of rising to the same level with others as because those means perpetually disappoint the persons who employ them. Democratic institutions awaken and foster a passion for equality which they can never entirely satisfy. This complete equality eludes the grasp of the people at the very moment when they think they have grasped it, and "flies," as Pascal says, "with an eternal flight; the people are excited in the pursuit of an advantage, which is more precious because it is not sufficiently remote to be unknown or sufficiently near to be enjoyed. The lower orders are agitated by the chance of success, they are irritated by its uncertainty; and they pass from the enthusiasm of pursuit to the exhaustion of ill success, and lastly to the acrimony of disappointment. Whatever transcends their own limitations appears to be an obstacle to their desires, and there is no superiority, however legitimate it may be, which is not irksome in their sight.
Now, Now would she be that bad???
( I know the answer is yes, but still wanted you to spit out what you were drinking after you read that question... )
yet, Hillary is a lock...?
I sure hope so.
Hillary is a gift to the GOP beyond all measure - and to the nation. Kween of the Klowny Korrupt Kunts Korps - Hillary ensures the GOP will take the general.
Standard Disclaimer: Earlier democrats only had three "K'S" - Hillary has 5! The KKKKK...
Join me in voting third party, I couldn't vote for them, either.I am starting to throw up a little bit in my mouth, I won't bother to vote if it's Jeb and Hillary , count me out.
This illustrates how our REAL Best & Brightest know to stay the fuck out politics. They avoid....
...having to beg for money and needing to raise a zillion dollars
...being a good little doggie for their campaign contributors
...traveling all over the place saying the same bullshit day in and day out on the stump
...playing games to avoid pissing off their loony "base"
...putting up with months or years of personal insults, lies, libel and slander
...watching their family put up with the same
...looking forward to working with a bunch of dishonest, paid-off thugs in Congress
...dealing with a media that has its own agendas
...living in terror of That One Gaffe that tosses all that effort into the toilet
Fuck that. What successful, fulfilled, honest, satisfied person would want to go through that?
.
Wait......wut?
The GOP just helped elect a community organizer that attended a racially bigoted left winged church and who sold his seat in Illinios when he left.
Only the GOP can get Hillary elected, and probably will.
Thanks Jeb.
I'm not disappointed with Jebs speech. After all he is an introvert. He needs to gain the public by considerate policy, mentioning noteworthy things that havent been mentioned yet and excellent judgement and not rhetoric. He must rely on his strengths not his weaknesses. But... He does need a little fire in his belly thiugh... He needs to be serious about what he believes in

And the wife of a Former President? (what shall we call Bill? Still Mr. President I guess....)

Raise a hell of a lot of money for my campaign and I might consider running for president.
Not me.. If they're disappooned they don't know him.I'm not disappointed with Jebs speech. After all he is an introvert.

He reminds me of a more accomplished Fred Thompson...the famous line about Fred was that he wasn't running for President...he was strolling for President. Bush is disappointing his suporters.
Keep an eye out for Jeb Bush:
Money; check.
Name recognition; check.
Heavyweight credentials; check.
Good in all time zones; check.
Wants the job; Wants the job; Wants the job.... we'll see.
