Take your pick Clinton around for 16 years or Obama for 16 years

If its Clinton/Obama. Hillary is gone in 8 years and Obama is around for 16.

If its Obama/Clinton. Obama is around for 8 years and Hillary for 16 years.

Be careful what you wish for.

Obama as VP would be the perfect way to learn under Bill Clinton who is arguably the best politician we've had in a long long time.

1. No thank you. I was never someone who thought Bill was all that

and Obama is proving himself to be a very adept politician all by himself. His chance of winning the nomination is fairly slim, but if he does, I doubt Hillary would want to be second on the ticket anyway. She'd be 69 years old in 2017. I doubt she's interested.

2. Anybody who signs on as Hillary's VP

will have to play 2nd or 3rd fiddle to Bill. Not a job I'd recommend to anyone.

3. Bill Clinton is good at triangulation.

I have no interest in that and would HATE it if Obama learned that "skill".

I would rather keep Obama away from that way of thinking please.

4. You forgot to play out the scenario where Michelle gets the notion

that if ONE First Lady who's a lawyer can be President after her husband, why not another?

In which case we get B. Obama in the White House in some capacity for 24 years.
