There have been both black people and women who have run for President. Both Jesse Jackson and Al Sharpton have performed reasonably well in their bids. Elizabeth Dole ran for the Republican nomination against George W. Bush but didn't make much of an impression.\n\nHilary Clinton is the frontrunner for the nomination of her party and there is talk of a bid by Condaleeza Rice for the Republican nomination. In the past, there have not been many blacks or women with the experience to run for President. This position will change over time.

No.  He became a judge on American Idol, replacing Paula Abdul, who left the show to marry the President of Iran.  Meanwhile, P. Diddy was sworn in as the replacement President under the 43rd Amendment to the Constitution. Don't you read the papers?

Simple - - - because Al Gore ran in 2000 and though he won the election The Republicans seized power for Geo W, a choice   confirmed by The Supreme Court.\n\nAnd yes Bill did stump for his Veep but quietly and only to small groups, VEEPS are expected to win their own elections.  Reagan did not loudly endorse Geo H Bush in 1988 nor did Eisenhower for Dick Nixon in 1960, so tit for tat if you truly think you discovered something significant about Bill.\n\nPeace...

You mean Ross Perot, the billionaire finance investor who ran for President?  I haven't heard about him in a long time.

YES! I am in Pennsylvania, and we got rid of Rick Santorum, a man who thinks being a public servant = lecturing his constituents like they are 5 year old children, all the while voting for anything the President says. In my district, we also got rid of Don Sherwood, another Republican who ran on "family values" but who, in reality, carried on a 5 year affair with a woman that only ended after she called 911 to report him choking her.--A cheater AND a woman beater. He also voted against money for our troops & against making insurance coverage for breast cancer mandatory. I've met him on occasion, and found him to be arrogant beyond belief. I was thrilled to see him lose to Chris Carney, a family man, Navy veteran, and someone who served in the Pentagon as a consultant in anti terrorism issues.

What do you mean?  Bush already beat the Dolt and now his wife wants to run.

They said on the radio today (Air America) that it was highly likely W would pardon Lay. He would pardon him right before the next presidential election (when he has nothing to lose). Lay helped get W elected. Even evil republicans don't turn on their friends. \n\nThen again, who knows. As another answerer said, "business is business"

He's alive and living in Minnesota.  A few years ago when the Minnesota Senator Paul Wellstone died in a plane crash, Mondale stood in for Wellstone in the election, but the Republican Norm Coleman won (disgracefully, in my opinion.)

Ron Brown. And he just happened to die on a plane when he was due to be indicted for alot of things that could be tied to Clinton.\n\n  Because there is evidence that suggests Ron Brown was assassinated, the first question that a reasonable and prudent person would ask is, "who would have a motive to do this?" We may begin by examining the controversy surrounding Brown at the time of his death. Ron Brown, a highly connected attorney and member of the Washington elite, was chairman of the Democratic National Committee during Clinton's first run for the presidency. He was involved in fund raising. His expensive tastes allegedly led him to accept a bribe from Vietnam to normalize trade relations. He was under investigation by the Commerce Department Inspector General, the FDIC, the Justice Department, the House Government Reform and Oversight Committee, and the Senate Judiciary Committee. He was two weeks away from being indicted over a bribe he received from an Oklahoma corporation. Brown is reported to have said, "I am too old to go to jail. If I go down, I'll take everyone else down with me." Evidently, he thought he knew enough to influence those in power to save him, but that was an apparent miscalculation. (21)\n\n    The April '96 issued ofThe American Spectator featured an article entitled, "Why Ron Brown Won't Go Down" -- referring to his legal troubles. Shortly after that issue was released, Brown did go down -- with his aircraft and everyone else on board. Six hours later, the independent council investigating Brown's shady business deals and fund-raising practices quietly closed his investigation. (22)

In the years of the Watergage scandal, Rove's career as a big-time political handler began with a motley crew of friends and associates. He was chairman of the College \n1973.. Texas...via the Republican party\n\nRepublicans when George Herbert Walker Bush was chairman of the state Republican Party in 1973. He won the presidency of the College Republicans in a race against Terry Dolan. The late Lee Atwater, who later became famous as the political attack dog for the Reagan-Bush team, managed Rove's campaign. \nLee Atwater lobbied for UNITA. All of which began when Atwater was introduced to George Bush in 1973, by his good friend Karl Rove.\n\nIn 1980, Bush hired Rove to help him run for president.\nBest known for: George W. Bush's chief strategist. Consultant to U.S. Senators Phil

It sort of amazes me that the Veep is still there, and that's wholly apart from his political mistakes.  He has really serious health problems.  I know, because mine are about the same (we even go to the same doctor).  He had a cardiac defibrillator installed about 6 years ago.  These things run on batteries, and the typical life of a battery is about 4 to 6 years.  \n\nHe is due for a replacement by now.  That would make a perfect excuse for him to be eased out, if Bush wants to do that.  But Bush would need to recommend a replacement, who would be subject to confirmation by the Senate.  If the Senate changes hands, as looks likely, that means the Democrats would get to vote yes or no on the new Vice President, who of course would be the likely Republican candidate in 2008.  I cannot imagine that Bush, the VP, or anyone else in the Republican part is very interested in having that happen.  Even other Republicans (like McCain) would not look forward to the possibility of a new Republican VP at this point.  So, if he goes, it will probably be because he genuinely has to.  Otherwise, he will stay on.\n\nGood luck!!

As a republican, who cares anymore. We were sold a lousy bill of goods by them. It's a slap in my face when the person you vote into office ignores all of the people who put him there. They got what they deserve.
