why not Laura Bush for president??
Sara's common sense alarm is busy exploring the possibility of a new Republican candidate. How about Laura Bush, our current first lady, as the next president? I asked the gang.
HANNA THE WISE: WHY NOT? Since being married to a President for 2 terms makes Mrs.Bill Clinton a serious candidate, why can't Mrs. G.W. Bush be considered seriously? Laura fufills the Marriage component of elegibility. Actually, she exceeds it...... She would have the same access to a Mr. President husband, PLUS a Mr. President Father-in law, PLUS Barabara Bush, her mother in law, who also was married to a President,( and is thus qualified to substitute on days when Laura has flu, or the vapors.) OH..Perhaps she is OVER_qualified to be President?
LYNN tHE DEVIOUS:WHY NOT? Laura is also an author, didn't she write a childrens'book? ,Doesn't that qualify you? But, I am not sure that she has shown remarkable financial ability. Has SHE transformed $10,000.into $100,000. in a few days of Cattle future deals in the stock market?...This would be a real asset in eliminating the national debt. HMMMM.
JERRY THE MATHMATICIAN: Also, some other serious-set backs to Laura's presidency are that she did NOT operate the Lincoln Bedroom for profit, and she has an inability to break with all the gracious traditions of the past, as the Clintons did.. Can SHE shepherd that Chinese MONEY toward those huge fund raising goals ?...AND ... She has not illustrated a proclivity to... SHRED !!.
Can we rely on her stonewalling talent? Can she face tough questions with a "I didn't know, and "I don't recall" response.??
However, she, like Mrs.Clinton , visited foreign countries with her husband on AIR FORCE ONE, so she would possess equal qualification for the international requirements of the job.
MELINDA THE SIMPLE: well, DUH, Laura is a WOMAN. Isn't that the biggest, single, voter appeal of Mrs.Clinton that the Democrats are touting.? A female president?
PORTIA THE PHD: (she was in school with Hillary) PEOPLE, Hillary came into office a pauper, and emerged a millionaire. Of course she is qualified for the Presidency.
Sara still wants to know, IF Mrs.Clinton was co-president, isn't she term-limited out at this point??
