Jeb Bush vs Hilary Clinton for POTUS - What say ye'all?

So if the contenders are already identified then does that not already negate the whole sham of an election process!!

Be interesting to see what happens but it will probably go this way and Jeb Another Bush will win!

Might as well swear him in now, save a lot of money and time. Give the money the the needy!!!

Democracy: It's like rape, but you get to choose the penis.

It was kinda funny the first time, but........

Relative when you consider democrat Hilary (Hubby gets it under the table) Clinton is one of the candidates.

Kinda depressing choices if I do say so.

Hillary's only accomplishment is being married to bill.
Jebs only accomplishment is being a son.

Reminds me of the last two presidents, both were lacking qualifications...

What a nasty premise to start the new year off with...Thanks a lot...

Two years is a long time, considering the fickle nature of the voting public.

The Dems presidential strategy is obvious. Elizabeth Warren or Hillary. Liz is so far left that it makes Hillary look palatable to the Dems. Very slick!

The Republicans? Hmmm, that's tougher to call. "Republican Establishment" vs. the Tea Party types. Does the right's momentum continue or does it wane? A lot depends on what the Republicans do or doesn't get done in the interim.

I was a big W supporter. Not so with Jeb. Like W, he's helped turn a Dem state towards the Republicans, still I question his electability.

A good start to which direction it's going to go might be whether the House majority leader can keep his job in the coming session.....

Sorry if I spoiled "The Tea Party"! Jeb vs Hil its probably nailed!

Let be known throughout the globe that Jeb will be on top of the Hill. (maybe a payback for bill)!

Ouch!! LOL. If Jeb and Hillary are our choices in two years, I'd consider converting to the Jewish faith and moving to Israel...it would be safer...

My opinion has always been that a state governor makes the most qualified president. They get to run a state which in essence is a country on a smaller scale.
Choose a state that is in good financial standing and elect that person president.

This is not a perfect plan, carter anyone? And jeb is governor because of his name not qualifications. But I think senate and congressional members don't have the whole package of experiences.

Lots of people talk a big game about, "Ill never vote for blah blah blah," but at the end of the day, when the choices are Bush and Clinton, you will cast your ballot for one of them because "if the OTHER one wins, then this country is DOOMED!"

Don't stop voting, just vote for someone else.

There are more than 2 parties, you know.

carter anyone?

I wish Carter would run for president.

A non-violent, fiscally responsible, president with a cohesive energy policy that has already faced off against OPEC and won? Now with 30 years at the diplomats table!

Come on, Carter. I'd even vote for a Democrat if he ran.

I'm done with the GOP establishment and their RINO loser candidates. I'm voting for Ted Cruz and if he doesn't win the nomination I'm going to write-in my dog for the general election.

I know for a fact he cares about me and will listen to my demands.

Not true, MANY Conservatives stayed at home and didn't vote for McCain or Romney after Bush revealed his true colors and massively expanded the debt.

a reply to: RP2SticksOfDynamite To my way of thinking I would rather have Jeb Bush in office. I do not want either Clinton anywhere near the White House.

I was referring to the poster above me repeating him/herself within only 9 posts. I'm hungover and grumpy.

Happy new year sheeple.

Makes me want to vomit

Neither of them are qualified to be president, if those are going to be the two choices in 2016 I`ll either not vote at all or vote for a third party candidate.

I think too many people are tired of the Bush's and Clinton's. I think the Bush name has more negatives attached to it than the Clinton's, but I digress.

The egos of both families are getting to the point where they think they are entitled to hold office. I think the poll numbers are skewed, and I think each party is pulling the strings and are trying to sway public opinion behind the scenes.

The whole election is a big scam. Who cares who wins, because nothing's really going to change? It's like a debate between Coke and Pepsi. They're debating over which one tastes better.

Why do we get stuck on only two choices ? There's no difference between Republicans and Democrats . They're two hands of the same puppet . If you want to see real change in this country, don't vote for Bush or Clinton . Don't vote for any Democrat or Republican . Vote Libertarian, vote Green, vote Independent . Vote for anyone that does not have a D or an R behind their name.

People are clamoring to hear good ideas as opposed to the lesser of two evils . . . Either the Democrats are going to win or the Republicans are going to win, but the losers are all of us as citizens that really do want meaningful change, and none of it's happening.

Yes,

And Hillary probably has a big one.

Id rather pick a random ATS member. It could go really good, or really bad, but at least something different.

Jeb Bush?

Hillary Clinton?

Any other choices? ...?

Why yes, yes there are. It's up to us, yes us, to get them into office.

I'm beyond tired of hearing we can't do anything about it...

That's certainly the case if we sit on our stupidly apathetic asses and do nothing to aid your "cause". Whatever the cause... In this case preventing the continuation of the Bush/Clinton wanna be dynasties.

There are men and women out there worthy of holding the office. ...and worthy of our support. It's up to us to decide who it is.

Or, we can sit back and do nothing, except complain on the internet about how we don't have a choice. That's a whole lot easier, isn't it? Requires no work on our part except turning on the computer and logging in on ATS the day after...
