2008

[Comicstripper]

Any ideas on tickets for 2008 (both parties)? I think it'll be Kerry-Edwards (assuming they win) v. Frist-Owens (thats Bill Frist and Bill Owens, gov. of Colorado.) Anyone else have ideas? What if the Dems lose this election? Let's speculate.

1. If Owens gets on the ticket...

...let's hope the Nanny-Gate story comes out. I hate that man.

[Literate Tar Heel]

2. um...

Schwarzenegger/Ditka would be fun

[NewYorkerfromMass]

3. Interesting- Could W Bush gear up for a second try?

or would he be done for all time? and Jebby? Who the hell is on deck for them?

4. 2008 will be Kerry v. Bush

Jeb Bush, that is.

[NewYorkerfromMass]

7. Depends on how Florida voting goes

and if we can pin his crimes on him.

5. 2008

Kerry/Edwards over Gulliani/Frist in an electoral lanslide brought on by the right-leaning independents being split by Ventura and his running mate.

6. Kerry/Edwards versus Jeb/Schwarzenegger

Jeb/Arnie win. Jeb dies in office. Arnold is sworn in after Constitutional wrangling.

2012

Arnie/George P. Bush versus ?

[Literate Tar Heel]

8. what does Jeb die from?

a guilty conscience? oh wait, he's a Bush, what am I saying?

[GreenArrow]

9. natural causes

heart attack brought on by pure meanness.

[Pabst Blue Democrat]

10. No, he'll be attacked

by a leather-clad, motorcycle riding robot from the year 2045.

[NewYorkerfromMass]

11. Arnie is an Austrian. Ineligible for POTUS or VP.

If that's who you meant.

[emulatorloo]

13. You are forgetting the upcoming constitutional amendment to allow Arnold

to run. . .they have been talking about a Naturalized Citizen for 25yrs clause.

[GreenArrow]

14. there are no qualifications for VP

set out in the Constitution.

Arnie will run for VP at some point, bank it.

On edit: no qualifications set originally set out in Constitution, but later added in 12th ammendment. Guess I was wrong about this. I still think the he'll find a way to run.

[GiovanniC]

15. Yes, There Are

They're the same as for POTUS.

Part of Amendment 12: "But no person constitutionally ineligible to the office of President shall be eligible to that of Vice-President of the United States."

[GreenArrow]

16. you're right

I got bad info on this. There were no qualifications delineated in the Constitution as it was orignally written, but the 12th Ammendment in 1804 changed that.

Still, I suspect that Arnie will find a way around it.

12. Kerry/Edwards Versus the Bush Twins, w Cheney as Sec of State

Hopefully we will be done w the Bushes forever in 2004

Then it will be Kerry/Edwards versus Arnold/Britney Spears
