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...

Quite a few have run for president.  These are just a few highlights:\nThe Equal Rights Party nominated women candidates in 1872, 1884, 1888, and 1892.  Victoria Chaflin Woodhull was their candidate in 1872 and 1892. Belva Ann Bennet McNall Lockwood in 1884 and 1888;\nUnited States Senator Margaret Chase Smith was the first major party candidate.  She ran for the Republican nomination in 1964.  Similarly United States Representative Shirley Anita St. Hill Chisholm ran in the Democratic Primary in 1972. She was the first black woman to week nomination at a major party convention.  Numerous Socialists and Communist have received their party nominations including Charlene Mitchell in 1968, Linda J. Osteen Jenhess in 1972,  Margaret Wright in 1976, Willa Kenoyer in 1988 and Mary Cal Hollis in 1996.  Leonora B. Fulani ran in 1988 and 1992 for the American New Alliance Party.  She was the first black woman to appear on the ballot in all 50 states.  Elizabeth Hanford Dole, wife of Bob Dole ran for the Republican nomination in 2000.  She is now a U.S. Senator from North Carolina.

No.  I think he's better serving as the Senate Democratic Leader.  He can do great work there, and hey, he's already in the Senate.  Why move him?\n\nThere are other people who might be better & more qualified to run for President.  However, if he did win the Democratic nomination, then I would vote for him.

Gerald Rudolph Ford, Jr. (born July 14, 1913) was the 40th (1973–1974) Vice President and the 38th (1974–1977) President of the United States. He was the nation's first President who was elected to neither the Presidency nor Vice Presidency. Instead, following the resignation of Spiro Agnew in 1973, he was appointed as Vice President by Richard Nixon following confirmation by Congress, and when Nixon later resigned, on August 9, 1974, Ford assumed the Presidency. Along with his own Vice President, Nelson Rockefeller, he is one of only two people to have been appointed Vice President rather than elected.

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.

The Senate..........a 6 year term........then back home. There should be no career politicians. A career politician has bought their job by laying in bed with lobbyists, and buying votes with the peoples own tax dollars.

Lyndon Baines Johnson (August 27, 1908 – January 22, 1973), often referred to as LBJ, was the 36th President of the United States (1963–1969). After serving a long career in the U.S. Congress, Johnson became the thirty-seventh Vice President; in 1963, he succeeded to the presidency following President John F. Kennedy's assassination. He was a major leader of the Democratic Party and as President was responsible for the passage of key civil rights legislation and Medicare, a major "War on Poverty", as well as the acceleration of the war in Vietnam. He was elected in a landslide in 1964 but his reelection bid in 1968 collapsed as his party fell apart, and he announced that he would not seek re-election.

No...\nClinton served two terms.\nHe could run as VP but in the event that the president died Clinton as VP still would be unable to take the office. (22ND Amendment)

Shirley Chisholm is correct, but it was for the 1972 US Presidential campaign.  She officially announced her candidacy on January 25, 1971, so that is when she bacame the first woman and the first black person to run for President of the United States.

Gerald Ford was elected neither to the Presidency, nor the Vice Presidency.  He was appointed Vice President upon the resignation of Spiro Agnew, then became President when Nixon resigned.  He was defeated by Jimmy Carter in 1976 when he ran for his own term.\n\nOf course, you'll still have your leftist wags here who will say George W. Bush.  I suggest you take such answers for what they're worth.

I supported Elizabeth Dole.  I was appalled at the treatment she received by Republicans, particularly her own husband.\n\nCould she have beaten Gore?  We will never know.  \n\nShe certainly could have captured the moderate vote, as her experience lay in humanitarianism, rather than politics, as the head of the Red Cross.\n\nI was disappointed in my fellow Republicans over this.

It was Bill Clinton, of course. Some people may not want to admit this, but the only reason why Bush became president in 2000 is because his dad's friends on the Supreme Court bench handed him the Oval Office.  Some may argue that Bush won fair and square in 2004, but there is evidence that election fraud may have taken place then, as well. However, since Kerry didn't contest the results, no one talked much about it. Thank you, Diebold!

He had his chance and he blew it. This country is in the mess it is in because he was a coward when we needed him to stand up for us. It was Gore who told the senate not to back the black caucus after the 2000 election.

He is the most promising politician in America, and eventually he is going to run for president. The case for running now It's just seems that it may not be the right time but then again it may be the best chance he will ever get. He needs at least a full Senate term before he is taken seriously but I think he should take his chances and run.
