And he showed compassion and released a black guy from prison when he was Arkansas governor, and the guy went on to kill someone.

That's always been the real stake in the heart of his campaigns

Didn't he show some vague signs of economic populism too that scared off more establishment figures?

There's a good chance the state of Michigan will give its electoral votes to the winners of gerrymandered congressional distracts rather than the current winner-takes-all.

That's not what that story says. It says that he wants to change it in an unspecified way he claims ensures the winner actually gets the majority of the votes, and also notes he tried to do it the district way you describe in 2011 but failed. It also doesn't actually suggest this is likely to go anywhere.

Whoops, my bad, I'll blame it on a series of confusing posts by the DFP and my laziness.

Is Chelsea even old enough for the position?

EDIT: Looked it up. She isn't, but she will be! She was born in 1980 and the cutoff age is 35. (I thought it was higher than that, somehow.)

She would be barely. POTUS needs to be 35.

In a few centuries Bush and Clinton will be ceremonial titles bestowed on the candidates. And Paul.

Maybe the tetrarchy wouldn't be such a bad model of government for the USA.

It's good to know Ben Carson is taking his campaign about as seriously as everyone else is.
