Well, we've got 2 more years with Dubya, where do the other 12 come from? It seems like the powers that be like the reign of the Bushes. It seems like a certain ammout of the population does as well. With a little bit of help, can there be 3 more terms of Bush rule? Why not? HW only served 1 term, he's available for 1 more term. By then Jeb should be ready to take over. Could this actually be pulled off if the millitary industrial complex see fit to do this? Would the population do this?
Your thoughts?

So, bottom line is that I'm guessing this is from someone's rampant speculation. It really isn't very realistic, in fact, I'd bet my house, my cars, and even my cat that there's no way that Bushes will sit in the Executive Office for a total of 20 straight years.

This is just a theory, thus Skunkworks.

2. He only ran in 1988 because there was no one else around who could win.
6. I do see the possibility of Jeb running, maybe in 2012.
7. I see one of two thing happening in 08: the dems will rule the Congress for the next two years and people will run with open arms to whatever option available to free them from further dem rule -or- the dems will win in '08 but it will be someone that Bush 41 can control ala Clinton.
Put that in your SkunkWorks pipe and smoke it

I actually would have prefered Jeb as president instead of Georgie, Jeb is more eloquent, he's bilingual and well actually seems to be alot smarter than his brother.
I definitely think we'll see another Bush in the white house in the future, remember Jeb also has a son who is in politics...so yeah we'll never be rid of bushes in the white house

Do we need to assume there will be an election in '08? What might stop that from taking place?

With all of Bush's recent actions in subduing personal freedoms granted by the Constitution, in exchange for security, I wouldn't be surprised if Bush looked to amend the Twenty-second Amendment, for the sake of "freedom" and "fighting terrorism." I could see him running for office once again, or changing the length of each term granted to a President.
