Secret Obama Plan--You Heard It Here (Maybe) First

#1 Post by Buffacuse » Wed Dec 10, 2008 1:02 pm

Most folks don't realize it--but Biden is 66...

Biden will be a one-term VP--if Hillary/Bill behave, the deal is she will take the VP slot in 2012...

Hillary walks into the nomination in 2016.

Big assumption being that Obama will get re-elected.

I actually hope he does because that would mean the economy has turned around and everyone is happy (whether he had anything to do with it or not). If the economy has not turned around (whether he had anything to do with it or not), he will not be re-elected. Plain and simple.

Not really the best way to pick a president, but it beats Venezuela's method.

Hillary will be 69 in 2016. Would running for President at that age be much different from Biden running for re-election as VP at 70?

Men can run for high office at that age. Women, not so much.

If so, that's another point against Buff's "secret plan" theory.

Of course, the secret plan might exist and Obama might dump Biden, regardless of his age, but dumping running mates is something that seems to have gone out of style since FDR's time.
