@jon-nyc Cool info about Polk. Didn't know all that, pretty cool. Next you'll tell me he also invented Polka!

Is there historic precedent for a president dropping out after 4 years?
LBJ didn't seek a 2nd elected term (though he finished JFK's term and was reelected for his 1st term) in the 1968 elections.
64, but who's counting. Nixon won in 68.
It’s confusing with the parentheses but George is saying he didn’t seek the second term in 68, which is correct.

I made the same post
Then I deleted it because of the confusing parenthesis

I too am a history buff and so I will buy and read that book. I will find it extremely interesting and I will learn many interesting facts about history, which I am interested in because I am a history buff.

because you're not white?
I’m not legal or illegal enough to vote.
Your problem would only present itself if I were legal.

Please oh please run Nikki Haley. Please.
Could set up a Haley vs Harris female battle in 2024, if Harris is picked by Biden.
In other words, "If I had ham I could have ham 'n eggs if I had eggs."

Anybody consider the idea that he might take a look at COVID-19 along with what it will mean for the next 18 months along with the treatment he’s received by the press, the swamp, the Democrat party, and the public at large and decide FVCK THIS SH!T...

Nikki Haley got her foreign policy stint and is smart enough to not want to associate herself with Trump again. She will hate working with/for Trump if he wins, she will be forever tarred by the association if Trump loses, and in the process she will be made to say many things that go against her sense of what is right and wrong. There is no upside for Nikki Haley in this.

Maybe
If she was a man
Being a female overrides all that stuff

Trump may not win.
If he does, this is going to be a fun place for some folks...

I think this is true. She is looking at 2024, and there is not a good history of vice presidents becoming president (unless because of death).
@Jolly This place will be a fun place regardless of who wins.

I’m not talking about Haley as VP. THis is about if Trump drops out. They won’t run Pence.

You don't think so? He's probably less radioactive than Trump, to be sure.
Or perhaps not - maybe he's just quieter.

I' m with Mik. They won't run Pence. If there were a chance of that, the scuttlebutt would be all over the place.
Plus, if there were such a chance, people need to think about the fact that Trump chose him for Veep, and especially why.
And Pence wouldn't work, anyway. He could never have a woman in the OO while he was there. Think of the inconvenience!

How do you feel about Kasich now?

I think Kasich has run his mouth too much while out of office to ever be electable, as much as I think he would have been an excellent president.

He would've been so good. He was my top preference in the 2016 primaries.
