Would Hillary Clinton be the most prepared Presidential candidate ever?
Not my candidate. Not humping that leg...yet. But, as far as being prepared to to be President. Not going to get much better than this resume.

NY times article and my prose:

If Hillary Clinton ran for president again, she would probably be the best-prepared candidate in American history:
  • Graduate of Yale law school. Worked as an intern in the Senate.
  • Member of the impeachment inquiry staff advising the Senate during the Watergate scandal.
  • One of the first female faculty professors at the Univ. of Arkansas Law school. Ans female pardner at the Rose Law firm.
  • She lived in the White House for 8 years. Was a confident of the President. So much so that she and Willie got a lot of flack for a unelected person having so much influence. Went through the battles on the hill from a Presidents perspective with health care.
  • Served in the United States Senate for 8 years.
  • Secretary of State for 4 years. She would know virtually every head of state in the world and also has a strong opinion about the merits of the Peruvian minister of development and social inclusion.

Depends how the GOP comes around on immigration. That one subject, should the GOP refuse to see the light the next four years on immigration reform, can really gum up the works on Rubio within the primaries, and maybe even at the general. Should the GOP see the light, however, I would agree that Rubio would be challenging.

Rice, not so much. It'd be too easy to bring up George W. Bush over and over again, a President she no doubt supported whole-heartedly. I don't think Rice wants that action, anyway. I think her political life is mostly over.

The weak Secretary of State that democrats should be trying to recruit to run for POTUS in 2016 is Colin Powell. He'd be very hard to beat unless be turns out to be a Rick Perry or Fred Thompson quality candidate.
Powell got played by W. That alone should DQ him.

I think he should be DQed for the time he spent in the Bush administration too.

Why do you Republicans think Rubio can run for national office? He ****ing lied about his family for years to benefit from the lie politically. He told any group that would listen to his lies. Only after years and years did he come clean.

He couldn't even get a basic security clearance with that background. Since when is that not a disqualification for the Presidency?

Obama did the same thing. Rubio is pretty similar to Obama without the radical connections to socialists, terrorists, and black liberation theologists.

At this point, you could nominate a sack of dog shit, and it would win the election.

I have no idea what you are talking about but whatever dude. It's apples to oranges.

The American public will decide if lying for years about your family for political reasons is a deal breaker for President.

In addition to the fictitious vignettes in his memoir, he lied about how the protests in Selma (which happened 4 years after he was born) inspired his father to come to America and have a child with his mother or something along those lines. Here's a generous snopes article calling it a "mixture" of fact and fiction.

It can get you elected to Senate in Massachusetts.

The Presidency is a higher bar to jump over than the Senate.

I am technically a Republican because I re-registered as one because, I wanted to vote against one in the State primary.

The qualifications to be POTUS have been very clearly defined and defended by the left on this very website when the ‘qualifications” of Obama were questioned. They are very few and clearly defined by Law. You are not really suggesting honesty all of the sudden counts, are you?
