Republicans for POTUS, 2016 Edition

Herman Cain was a brief frontrunner in 2011 and Carson has won multiple straw polls so far. Have never seen POTUS as an entry level political position and would never consider Trump or Fiorina.
 
SNL should do a Politician Jeopardy running skit with the Republican candidates. So much material.

I don't think that's necessarily clear. 538 has him as the frontrunner, but only marginally above Walker and Rubio.

Walker and Rubio are running for famous; Jeb is running for President.

You point to the 2008 election as proof Republicans like identity politics?

Democrats voted for who they thought was the best candidate. Do you believe John Edwards was unfairly passed over because he wasn't black or a woman? I'd expect that from Ball State Deac, but not you.

LK, good call on Steele.

With the number of potential candidates, it would be more like Price is Right.
 
The Republican clown show just got its first entrant who actually knows he's a clown.
 
Trump's campaign song is Neil Young's "Rockin' in the Free World." It includes positive references to Jesse Jackson's 1988 campaign slogan and negatively references George H.W. Bush.

Mitt Romney just looked through his binders to suggest a Fiorina/Ayoette ticket. McCain drafted Palin to pick up pissed off Hillary voters. Identity politics.

the funny thing is that mitt's record of hiring women in positions of influence was better than just about anyone's. all people remember is the meme, but life is but a meme.

I remember hearing that but I also remember hearing that he appointed women to somewhat gender specific positions akin to Director of Home Economic Policy and Chief Baking Officer.
 
It was only a matter of time.

Donald Trump is a delusional lunatic with nothing to lose (outside of his tv show, and his spot on FN) and money. This is gonna be fun.

ETA: Are there restrictions on the eligibility of a first lady? Purely curiosity
