Why Hillary v. Jeb Would Be Great for America
Daily Beast ^ | 4/13/14 | Mark McKinnon

Posted on 04/13/2014 7:34:12 AM PDT by jimbo123

They’re both qualified, respectful of each other (shocker!), and represent the vast majority of middle America. So what’s not to like about another Clinton/Bush race for 2016?

When you mention the prospect of Clinton vs. Bush 2016 a funny thing happens.

First, there is the reflexive response: "Oh no, not again. We don't need more dynastic politics in this country."

But upon further reflection, you realize Jeb Bush vs. Hillary Clinton would be a great race and actually good for the country.

Let's review.

QUALIFICATIONS—THEY’VE BOTH GOT THEM.

Hillary vs. Ted Cruz would be better.

Hillary versus a Doberman would be better still.

Stopped reading right there. Anything after that has to be BS.

Hay McKinnon, I guess my knocking you on your ass 3 times wasn’t enough to knock some sense into that head of yours was it?

That’s me, mister kind hearted, I knew I shouldn’t have stopped.

Anyone who actually believes that Slick Willie’s wife is qualified to be president and would make a “great” one should really consider giving up or at least cutting back on the recreational drugs.

They’re both qualified?

Please tell me how either is qualified to be president of the US.

Have you not learned enough about the impact of incompetence and blaming others after watching Obama make believe for the last 5 years?

I don't know what 'middle America' is but they sure don't represent me or most of my friends.

It would be great if it resulted in a third party that a) killed the GOP, and b) resulted in a conservative president. Otherwise, it would be a disaster for America.

Ah, right. Newsweak. Thanks for the assist.

Question still stands, though. Whatever it was.

Allen West?

Exactly one persons qualified candidate is another persons Adolf....

Saying someone is qualified means little in this environment.

I read it as Hillary and Jeb, also.

Same thing. Two royal families. Entitled, selfish, useless, dysfunctional.

A destructive mix.

They belong together.

In 1992 I told my wife W would be president after Clinton because George didn’t seem like he was even trying to win. And Perot was on the scene. Clinton won. 8 years later W wins and all the Bushes and Clintons become best friends.

In that case, old man Bush served one term. I predict in 2016 Hillary will beat Jeb. She will serve one term then Jeb runs again and gets two terms. Then in 2028 Chelsea and George P. will be on the scene.

Then again, maybe not. I’m just thinking (posting) out loud. I probably won’t be around to say “I told you so” anyway.
