On his Monday show, commentator Glenn Beck made the extraordinary prediction that former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton would be elected president in the 2016 election.
According to Beck, that prediction is based upon a conversation a “friend” of his had with so-called “Hillary people” about the strategy she will employ in the 2016 campaign.
“They said, ‘The right is so stupid. They just don’t get it. You guys are going to all be fighting on Benghazi and everything else, and here’s what Hillary is going to do: ‘Do you remember when America was good? Do you remember when we had jobs and we were building towards a brighter future, and things were really happening? Clinton administration -- we had it under control. Things were good. They weren’t great but we’re going to do better. We’re going to replant our flag in the traditional things that you understand.’”
Beck also added that Republicans would ill-served in running on a Reagan theme because “nobody remembers Ronald Reagan,” but they remember the Clinton era as the “golden years.” And that is what on which he based his prediction....

Well for me I am ashamed for saying this. I dtd not vote for him the first time around because i grew up being a Democrat in Heart. I believed the lie that all Republicans were evil. On the day he got shot my uncle shouted ‘good! he deserve to die`. I turned to him and looked at him and just thought ‘wow how can you say such thing?`. Again his second term began and I did not vote for him. Again due to growing up in a Democrat household. When I saw him and his wife leaving the White House I felt I got hit on the head. I realize we had prosperity but I also came to love that man and how much I miss him, Infact my parents who were JFK Democrats became Republicans when Bubba Clinton came into the picture and they died as Republicans [I hope lol].
I pray that God send us a patriotic leader like President Reagan, not Hildabeasf since she is the spawn of Satan.

Exactly. Most of the available candidates in the GOP are bad jokes who won’t stand up for $&(@! or who simply never bring up anything important that needs to be brought up.
For several reasons, especially the GOPe, I expect a DemocRat winner in 2016.
However, in the strange logic of my 60s addled brain, Hillary is not likely to be that Rat.
I think if they (the media) can find anyone else (Liz Warren? Jeez) they will jettison her just like they did in 08.
Ding, ding, ding. You win.
I agree just like Obama whom I believe is also a judgement from God.
The problem isn’t Beck. The problem is the American electorate. Hillary Clinton may not be the nominee, but even if she is not, and it is either Cuomo or Warren, most of the U.S. public is either too blindly partisan or too stupid to see the B.S. that these politicians are full of. At the same time, the GOP can’t seem to field decent candidates either.
I predicted after her hospitalization last year that she would not even get the nomination, let alone become president, and I stand by it. My college buddy is a top neurosurgeon now and says her injuries will prevent her from serving even one term, and likely will result in a swift decline from debilitating brain pathologies, and eventually dementia.
Beck is reminding me of that crazy “Swede” on Hell On Wheels.
Tell that to the American voters. As 2012, showed, they were rediculous enough to re-elect Obama despite all the problems in America. They’re probably dumb enough to elect Hillary despite whatever failures are there.
One should only note that the electoral college is now heavily stacked in the Democrats’ favor. Formerly red states (VA, CO, NM, NV, NH) are now blue. Other important states (FL, OH and NC) are purple and easily can be lost. Given this situation the Dems could roll out Biden and have a solid chance at winning.
I agree. The American public sowed Obama by electing him, the consequences will be reaped.
Anyways glad you came around =)

Even if true about the medical situation of HRC, my understanding is that the American people have already chosen her for 2016. No one else need even apply. But many are choosing her because they like “bill”.
I don't think He will. I think he will let the uninformed American people choose, and they are pre-committed to HRC.
“Hillary is very damaged. For Example she is totally complicit in the arming of ISIS in Syria. They are using our weapons to slaughter Chistians right this minute. She completely supported the overthrow of Mubarak and Qaddafi. She was a total disaster as a secretary. But the biggies are her abandonment of Bengahzi in the face of screaming cries for security from Stevens. She is a total failure but MORE. She has very serious medical problems admitted by her Husband.”
All of these points are true, and I agree with you. However, I don’t think enough “voters” share this point of view. Then you have to factor in Democratic Party voter fraud and Republicans that have grown tired of voting for the lesser evil that the MSM and GOP provide for us.
I think Hillary or Elizabeth Warren are more likely to be the next president than whatever stiff the GOP gives us. If a strong conservative runs he/she will be sabotaged by the MSM, Libs and the GOP.
Some might call this pessimism, I call it realism.
No matter what evidence comes out on HRC, the American people are still pre-committed to her and do not easily change their little minds.
From what I see all Beck is saying the Dims are going to run a theme similar to Regans Morning in America. Emphasizing all the great things about America. As if a Dim believes in anything good about America. It will sell because apparently America will believe anything a Dim marxist tells them. And the pubbies apparently don’t have a clue about what to do. Much less having the courage to actually stand for something. Anything!
You are so right. We have a party that was co-opted by weakness and pathetic capitulation. Look at the Mississippi Senate Primary. Cock ran is a total scum bag. No conservative will cross the street to vote for that bast%rd.
We had a chance to defund obamacare communist health care and republicrats ran like scared puppies. We are a failed party. But in the end Hillary will not run. We are down to Biden. Anyone can beat Biden.
What about this is not correct?
Americans, especially the younger ones don’t remember Reagan. He was their parent’s president—just like my parents loved FDR and IKe. They were ancient history.
Americans are uninformed. They think Hillary had a big role back then. Doesn’t matter what is true.
The Republican field is Bob Dole weak. Their message is one of Borders and hard work. For a country where almost half the people are on the teat hard work is not a winning theme. The GOP message machine is targeted towards their own base. The Dems message is loyal and they target Independents.
The republican candidates have no physical attractiveness, no video charisma, and no rock star quality. And don’t bring up Sarah. She won’t run. She would be slaughtered by the media in the primaries.
The hot issues are “no” issues: no abortion, no birth control, no unemployment, etc. No one likes to be told no.
Again, it doesn’t matter if it’s true—it’s all based on who delivers the message and frames the issue. Any reaction from the GOP will come across as the bullying, old, rich, whitepeople’s point of view.
None of these things matter to folks who think their vote is important. But that is a vast minority of the electorate. For a huge majority of voters, a national election is just a cumbersome version of American Idol.
Not a huge fan of Beck, but there isn’t much wrong with his analysis.
