In reply to the discussion: Hillary Clinton on Iraq vote: ‘I still got it wrong. Plain and simple.’ [View all]johnlucas
(1,250 posts)It's so obvious just from a simple glance of her Wikipedia entry.
Hillary has been preparing for this ALL OF HER LIFE.
I KNOW she was pissed when Obama interrupted her rise in 2008.
That's why I said the deal was made.
It was a highly competitive race.
That's why Hillary lost her cool when seeing the historic candidacy of Obama she talked about a President passing the Civil Rights measures the activists were fighting for.
Both Hillary & Barack are pretty much on the same side BUT they BOTH want that Presidential prize.
And they want it BAD!
Even Bill chirped in rooting for his wife getting snared up in contesting Obama's historic candidacy.
They were NOT happy about this upstart coming out of nowhere & taking over.
It took a LOT of time for her to cool down after losing the nomination.
Why? Because she was competitive & wanted that spot.
You think the great Patrick Ewing was happy having his team lose to Michael Jordan's in the 90s never getting a ring?
He respected Jordan's skills, that goes without saying, but he wanted to be champion.
Jordan shut him out each time. Patrick Ewing was one of the greatest in the game to never have a championship ring.
He just had the bad luck of running against the dominant Chicago Bulls of Jordan's era.
It's not a mark against him. It was just the timing of everything.
Hillary ran into the same thing.
Without Obama in the race, she was the clear contender & would have won the Presidency.
With Obama in the race, she ended up running a strong second.
History intervened & she lost her spot.
Instead of having her just disappear for the next 4 years, Barack & Hillary made a deal that would ensure she makes out good coming second after Obama.
She will be the SECOND historical President for 2016 after Obama's historical Presidency.
Second ain't so bad when it can lead to the Presidency.
Now her approval ratings are high after her work as Secretary of State.
She has more street cred than she had before.
With the Republicans degenerating further & further, the Democrat voters will want to continue the legacy of Obama's presidency by putting Hillary into office.
Even though some people here can't stand her, she is the only way to guarantee the Democratic Party dominance that will send the Republican Party into extinction.
Warren ain't running & if she somehow does she will end up being Hillary's Vice President.
Yep, whether people like it or not, it's Hillary's turn.
And in 2016 she will not be denied.
She has been running for this all of her life.
And now the time is right.
It's 2016 or nothing.
She'll be 68 & will not be able to wait for another 8 years to run again.
Yeah women live longer than men, it's true, but I don't think people would trust putting a 76 year old in that position.
Now is her time. And there ain't no time for dilly-dallying.
When she finally makes that OBVIOUS SO OBVIOUS declaration that she's in the race, we'll end up getting some interesting stats.
First Woman President. First First Lady to become President. First Husband? First former President to become First Husband.
Just look at her Wikipedia entry for God's sake!
You know it's leading up to this.

It ain't no accident with all those firsts she has already accomplished.
This ain't no ordinary chick. She came here to become the MF'n President.
And that's why she's gonna win in it in 2016.
