Is it legal for Laura Bush to run for President right after her husband?

Condi (who has NEVER been married) was reportedly overheard saying, “As I was telling my husb—” and then stopping herself abruptly, before saying, “As I was telling President Bush.” \n\n'nuff said.

Who says a woman can't be President? George Bush's wife would have gotten my vote over him!!!!!!

How could someone as sweet and smart and loving, be so in love with a man the way some of you describe our President? She wouldn't care so deeply for an idiot such as you rank. Laura Bush is a wonderful person who loves a good strong  man.

I'm sure they do but they have to act according to the rules. I would suggest that your husband contact his Senator or Congressperson to make representations on your behalf. This can be effective especially if he is a registered voter.\n\nBest wishes to you and your family and I hope you are reunited as soon as possible.

Yes. A person should be allowed to run for or be president an unlimited number of times.

Sure is a Lame Duck isn't she! I wouldn't even know that Bush was married, she is a ghost isn't she, and I totally agree with you on that thought. Laura isn't any Elenore Roosevelt, or even Betty Ford, and as far as Hillary Clinton, she followed in Elenore Roosevelt's shoes and stayed with the fight for freedom. I think Hillary Clinton will make a good President just like her husband. America would get a double bonus too with Bill Clinton being Hillary's adviser.

Just like a male President's wife is not called the "First Wife," a female President's husband would not be called the "First Husband."  A president's wife is called the "First Lady," so Fmr. President Clinton would be the "First Gentleman" if Sen. Clinton wins the presidency.

no  , I don't think she will be elected, she is intelligent,  but she does not have the ability to unite   enough people to vote her in. Her politics are extremely left wing , yet she plays the middle when it suits her..she has stayed with her husband only because of her political desires.She is actually more intelligent than her husband , yet she lacks his charm, warmth and ability to fool people enough to  vote for her, or to be  a good president.

According to some reports, Condi's done more than support Bush. Apparently, Bush and Condi are having an affair, and Laura Bush has been living in the Mayflower Hotel. I guess it just proves that the old adage about opposites attracting is true. After all, Condi's brilliant and is even fluent in Russian and several other languages, whereas Bush is as dumb as a post. But if Condi's so smart, what's she doing with Bush?

How could Rice  run for president in 08, she will be in prison, or is Bush going to spring her and his other cronies on his last day!  Not if he's locked up too. Yahoo!

No, she shouldnt. People are trying to make her president not because she is the best candidate but because she is a woman (I'm a feminist myself, so I have really given this thought).  She is not a top choice, her past is full of scandal, her campaigning is full of scandal, and her run as a senator is shady in many ways. There are plenty of better choices.

Actually, the wife of a president of the U.S. is called the First Lady. She was married to a president; hence, she was a First Lady.

Bush did not run in this Election. It was not a Presidential election.  He cannot run in the next Presidential, because he is limited to 2 terms in office, and he is in his 2nd term now.

There are really only two logical reasons why I can think anyone would fear gay marriage. Either, they fear if gay marriage is legalized, that they will become gay and run off with someone of the same sex, or more likely they fear their spouse will do so. \n\nLikely George W is afraid Laura Bush will run off with a lesbian. This is despite the fact that the Bush-Cheney 2004 website explicity states that Laura is not a lesbian. \n\nhttp://2004.georgewbush.org/bios/laurabush.asp specificallly states "She is not a lesbian" \nIf George had read this site he would know he didn't have anything to fear.

Yes,Ive heard that she is a lesbian/bisexual but leaning more towards women.Her marriage to Bill is just purposes of looking"straight".And,yes,it will be a consideration if she runs for the presidency.The Dems will go after the gay vote and she would be a perfect "poster child" for that!
