    Funny way of thinking about politics. Let us see what argumentation against Hillary for President we have here.

    1. Hillary is a politician.
      I take it Monsieur Dump would prefer to elect a butcher, dentist or Avon consultant who has never seen the inside of a political party or body of elected representatives?
    2. Hillary worked with her husband when he was President.
      And a very succesful President to boot: eight years in office, admired for his political sixth sense as well as for having a wife who shared his political agenda and worked for it. The Dumpster would have preferred a politically amorphous blob for a first lady -- the kind that bakes cookies and manipulates her husband in the bedroom only.
    3. Hillary has not divorced her husband over his affairs
      The Major is incapable of grasping the concept of marriage which includes the notion that partners commit for life and preferably settle their marital differences by other than legal means unless said life becomes unbearable.

    All in all, the Major's choice for President would be a divorced Avon consultant who is good at lighting Christmas trees.

    Bah. Only crooks and jerks become US prezzies anyway, it's that kind of job. I can't for the life of me comprehend why Hillary would be any worse than the other sorts of creeps you're going to have lining up at the elections.

    Hillary Clinton? Why not? Let her run against Dick Cheney and we'll have yet another interesting election

    That would make me regret my move to America.

    We are in need of another liberal/populist move ala the New Deal or the Civil Rights movement to stabilize the overgrowth of conservatism. They had their own "resurgent" era in Reagan to balance out the old 60s liberalism already. Hillary, however, isn't a very good choice. She's too jaded a politician, methinks.

    And Dick Cheney would've been just another Nixon, except more stupid and less dynamic a crook. We don't need neoconservative crooks in the White House, thank you. The Cold War is over.

    I'm not sure though, that I can vote by the time of 2008. It all the depends on the Immigration whatever-office that does my naturalization. That might be good, perhaps, as I am quite in the mood of political apathy.

    Of course, but who else would the dems field for the election? It's not like the top of the US political hierarchy carries any outstanding personalities for the public to choose from right now.

    More interesting if Condeleeza Rice ran for the Republicans.

    Now I'm British so my extent of US politics is five series of the West Wing, the news and not alot else. However this is news to me, I though Hilarly Clinton was a shoe in for the 08 presidency, I thought she's get all the womens vote, apart from the die hard rep women of course.

    So yeah, perhaps Bill wont get to be The First (and actually first) Gentlemen in 08, lol.

    Actually, he said "why the people are against her", and they seem like pretty good reasons. The divorce thing seems laughable of course, but now most of the 'liberals' think she just stays with her husband for political reasons and the christian right won,'t vote for her because she has a bad marriage.

    She doesn't stand a chance and everyone knows it.

    The sad part about the whole fiasco is that the Clintons have enough financial backing to get the nomination, regardless of what the general public thinks. There's a reason she isn't a Senator in Arkansas right now. The even sadder part is it would guarantee a democratic loss in the general election.

    And I don't think the divorce scenario is ludicrous at all. It takes guts and integrity to stand up and walk away from something you find truly appalling, and the fact that this stupid woman stood by her man is proof that marriage is as sacred as a turd in a truck stop urinal. Please. Ever consider maybe Al Gore would have won the 2000 election had he resigned as VP when it became evident that the president lied under oath, lied about lying under oath, then played guardhouse lawyer with the definition of the word "is?" Instead Mr Gore stayed on the gravy train, kept his mouth shut and planned his next political move which made it clear he was about as genuine as a japanese cowboy. Just once, I would like someone who doesn't stand by a crony for the sake of free pie, and instead throws their arms up and says "enough." Hell, even if they don't really mean it, humor me, please.

    Technicly, Gore could have won in 2000 if he emphasized more on his vice presidency under Clinton. But he was to afraid the public would be held back by their feelings about Clinton, probably wrongly so. Because honestly, Clinton vs Bush? If Clinton could have run for another term he'd have defeated Bush by a large margin.
