Clinton for president in 2016 (condo, house, tax)

[UrbanScholar]

The topic is resurfacing again. Some think that Clinton may run in 2016. Who thinks that this will come into fruition? Do you think that this is a good or bad idea and why?

I want a Conservative Democrat as our party's nominee. Not some tax happy Liberal like O'Malley or Warren (yeah she's mentioned as well). Either way, Clinton won't run in 2016 and Brian Schwietzer will be the party's nominee.

I will say that barring a 4th quarter collapse, President Obama will win a 2nd term.

I suspect that much like in 2008, the American public will be so sick of an unpopular President by then, they will vote for the GOP in 2016, who should put out a very strong field. So, as far as that goes, Clinton can be the cannon fodder if she wants to, but I think she would the Dem version of McCain by then. Too old, too much time around politics, too much baggage and quite frankly, too moderate to stir the base.

The GOP can put forth a good field if it wants to but they better nominate a moderate candidate or they'll screw themselves over. Better yet, the GOP needs to return to the way it was before the crazies took over the party or they'll have a hard time attracting certain demographics.

Both parties have crazies; why pick on the GOP? Pelosi represents the very wealthy liberal crowd from San Francisco. Most DEM legislators form CA are crazies. None of the legislators from our state have strong track records. I want a fiscally responsible REP in the White House be it black or white. The color of one's skin or the fact it is male or female has no bearing on policy though too many people believe it to be so on any behalf.

I could rant on for 3 hours straight about how my party has left me behind and how it's full of qausi-socialists, idiot 20 somethings who think big business is bad (yet they own an iPhone) and blacks who feel the need to deny LGBT people the right to marry, yet get up in arms when discrimination is committed against us.

Let's also state the fact that the GOP is still the party of white men with splashes of color here and there that you guys like to show off every now and then (Mia Love, Brian Sandoval, Nikki Haley, etc.) as proof you aren't "racist" when in fact the only people who think you're racist are those on the far-left who are delusional and simply just playing the race card.

Here's an idea, try appealing to other races and then people won't think you're racist and please for the love of God, stop making a minority the "token" of the party. Do you honestly think black people didn't know the only reason Steele was elected RNC Chair was because Obama was elected President; do you think we're stupid or something?

Another thing, why haven't you guys even made an attempt to court the black vote? You constantly complain how we are "slaves to our Democratic Party masters" yet you've done NOTHING to change that. You want a reliable block on social issues (specifically gay marriage), go to inner city and suburban black churches and court them. Your economic message would do wonders with middle and upper-middle class blacks in the burbs, yet you've given up on us. How sad.

So lets be honest here, you can think it's not a problem that you only attract a certain demo., but in reality it is, whether you want to admit it or not.

I predict a Hillary vs. Condoleeza showdown in 2016.

I've never seen a presidential race with 2 as good candidates as that, ever. It'll never happen.

Well we did see Hillary vs. Obama in the Democratic Primaries so anything is possible.
