In this week's special re-election issue, Time Magazine selected several politicians that seem likely candidates for the election in 2016.

In order (and with Ryan's excellent opinions on each person):

Hillary Clinton (D), Secretary of State, former US Senator from New York
-50% chance she'll be our next President, to be honest.

Julián Castro (D), Mayor of San Antonio
-His keynote speech at the DNC was a moment reminiscent of Obama's 2004 DNC break-out moment

Jeb Bush (R), former Governor of Florida
-A much more moderate Bush, especially on immigration and the environment.

Condoleezza Rice (R), former Secretary of State
-She has my vote as long as she doesn't suddenly become a social conservative nutjob (which she isn't anyways).

Joe Biden (D), Vice-President, former US Senator from Delaware
-I really think Time just included Biden to be nice; I don't think he has Presidential aspirations.

Andrew Cuomo (D), Governor of New York
-New Yorkers love him, even though he's dating Sandra Lee, aka the hot mess of the Food Network.

Chris Christie (R), Governor of New Jersey
-No. Just... no.

Marco Rubio (R), US Senator from Florida
-If the GOP cuts ties with the Tea Party (which I think they will), he'll disappear into obscurity (thank goodness).

Martin O'Malley (D), Governor of Maryland
-A true ally to the LGBT community; he has shown great leadership both as Governor of MD and Mayor of Baltimore.

Bobby Jindal (R), Governor of Louisiana
-He's a hot mess. Lol

Kirsten Gillibrand (D), US Senator from New York
-I LOVE Sen. Gillibrand. She has already said she won't run if Hillary does (she took Hildawg's spot in the Senate & they're good friends).

Rahm Emanuel (D), Mayor of Chicago
-Eh...

Nikki Haley (R), Governor of South Carolina
-Spawn of the Tea Party and Miss Alaska herself, Sarah Palin.


Thoughts?

Ms. Clinton is the only option.

CLINTON 2016.

CLINTON 2016

FOR ****'S SAKE AMERICA, VOTE SOMEONE GOOD INTO THE WHITE HOUSE AND VOTE CLINTON IN 2016

HA HUSBAND ***** ON YOUR FAVE

SO WHAT IF HIS DICK GOT SUCKED, WORSE **** HAS HAPPENED.

VOTE HILLARY CLINTON 2016

I voted for Hillary in the primary and it was sad she wasn't picked as the top candidate.

Rahm Emanuel better not become anybody's president. He already ****ed up our school system.

I'm here for Clinton though.

Hilary or death.

Andrew Cuomo ain't getting **** with Sandra Lee on his arm. She'll be drunk half the time



But Hillary 2016

hilary vs. condolezza 2016. i think the us are ready for the very first female president in history.

Oh I am SO here for all of this!

I agree:



But since she's not old enough, how about Hillary?

There are so many treasures of that woman on YouTube.

A Clinton-Rice ticket would SLAY!!

Hillary, Julian or Kirsten FTW

Im here for the first latino president or first Woman.. Them poor creatures in the Republican party have no chance in hell.

But Condolezza is Republican though. I'm not sure that'll work out.

Cross-party campaigns have existed.

Condi's moderate enough to be okay with being on a Dem ticket.

Her being joined to Bush isn't going to help much either lol.

Hillary v. Condi would be EPIC.

But I just done reading Condi's memoir, and she pretty explicitly says that she's not ever going to run for elected office.
