OK! Now I know you're worried. india daily?

[Sir Francis Dashwood]

I do not think anyone who is ineligible to be president can become vice president...

[farlander]

Ooooookkk... Whoever wrote that one was really, really high on his pot. Or whatever they were smoking, must have been good.

Hillary and Bill bringing the country together !?? Say whaaaaa' ? That'd be a disaster, allright, but for the Democrats.

He's metrosexual and cereal, very cereal. :)

[nopardons]

Bill can NOT be her running mate.

This is so for many different reasons, but the most important one, is because it's unconstitutional.

[jws3sticks]

Too scary, at the very least!

[Mo1]

Naaaa .. I just tried of reading all the threats from the lunatic from North Korea

And it's so much more fun to pick on Hellary

The author of this bilge, Peter Ostanovich would appear to be a sufferer of cranialrectal inversion.

[nopardons]

They can't and besides they are from the same state and they are "married".

You are correct sir.

Here are the relevant parts of the constitution.

Amendement XII
..... But no person constitutionally ineligible to the office of President shall be eligible to that of Vice-President of the United States.

Amendment XXII
1. No person shall be elected to the office of the President more than twice, and no person who has held the office of President, or acted as President, for more than two years of a term to which some other person was elected President shall be elected to the office of the President more than once. But this Article shall not apply to any person holding the office of President, when this Article was proposed by the Congress, and shall not prevent any person who may be holding the office of President, or acting as President, during the term within which this Article becomes operative from holding the office of President or acting as President during the remainder of such term.

2. This article shall be inoperative unless it shall have been ratified as an amendment to the Constitution by the legislatures of three-fourths of the several States within seven years from the date of its submission to the States by the Congress.

If only the law was abided by...

[Centurion2000]

While her opposition is fixed conservative 30% far right, her supporting base is stronger than ever. She is running and running with full vigor for the next Presidential election in 2008. And guess who will be running mate - yes her husband former US President Bill Cinton.

These idiot journalists prove every day that they are dumb ... but this one is so frakking stupid that even a cursory reading of the Amendments will tell you that this is Constitutionally impossible.

[kinoxi]

'frakking'... some one's been watching their sci-fi channel...
:)

[Prodn2000]

Maybe they are thinking "running-mate" in the context that he will be with her at every campaign stop. Maybe they are not referring to the vice presidential candidate. I mean this article was translated into English, right?

[Jay Howard Smith]

[Sir Francis Dashwood]

I would bet that despite it being explicit in the Constitution, the news media would trot out some "Constitutional scholar" to tell us otherwise...

[Steve Van Doorn]

Kerry had to leave the Senate before running for president. he didn't.
