Sachin=GOD Posted January 27, 2015 Posted January 27, 2015 Less than 2 years to go... Democratic Contenders - Hillary Clinton leads the list even though she hasn't officially announced (she has had a PAC working for the last few months and will probably announce her candidature in a few months). Joe Biden and/or Elizabeth Warren might also run but I don't think either of them will. Jim Webb has formed an Exploratory Committee - other than that nobody else seems to be in contention right now. Republican Contenders - too many to name.....but the main ones seem to be Jeb Bush (carries too much baggage of his brother to make a good nominee though he looks like the sanest republican in the field till now), Romeny (there's been a lot of speculation about whether he will run again), Scott Walker, Chris Christie (he just launched his PAC so he is definitely running), Sarah Palin (LOL) etc.
Sachin=GOD Posted January 27, 2015 Author Posted January 27, 2015 The Kochs put a price on 2016: $889 million The Koch brothers’ operation intends to spend $889 million in the run-up to the 2016 elections — a historic sum that in many ways would mark Charles and David Koch and their fellow conservative megadonors as more powerful than the official Republican Party. The figure, which more than doubles the amount spent by the Republican National Committee during the last presidential election cycle Read more: http://www.politico.com/story/2015/01/koch-2016-spending-goal-114604.html#ixzz3Q1qyNIG0

Sachin=GOD Posted January 28, 2015 Author Posted January 28, 2015 Anyone but Hilary Rodham Clinton. Right now it looks like she is definitely going to be the Democratic Nominee. Might announce her candidacy in April according to this article: Inside Hillary Clinton’s 2016 plan New campaign takes shape, with ‘big-tent mentality’ and ‘good cop’ for press.

aceofbase Posted January 30, 2015 Posted January 30, 2015 So Romney has decided not to get into it...seems a wise move...it would have been pretty tough for him if he entered. ..Bush and christie are frontrunners now to be next prez..

Texan Posted January 31, 2015 Posted January 31, 2015 I would hope that neither a Clinton nor a Bush makes it. Enough of them already.

yoda Posted January 31, 2015 Posted January 31, 2015 I would hope that neither a Clinton nor a Bush makes it. Enough of them already. Well the last Clinton in the WH was one of the best for the US. Can't say the same about the Bush. That said it means nothing regarding how Hillary or Jeb Bush would fare as President.

G_B_ Posted January 31, 2015 Posted January 31, 2015 Its now or never for hillary will be 69 by the time elections roll around. A lot depends on the American economy. If its strong then I think many will put their hat in the ring.
Malcolm Merlyn Posted January 31, 2015 Posted January 31, 2015 I know that this Clinton is not anywhere as good as that last Clinton. May be that Clinton will run this clinton from behind.

If its strong then I think many will put their hat in the ring. Democrats don't really have many contenders if Hillary doesn't run. There's Elizabeth Warren but IMO she will be ready in 2020. Joe Biden is already old. There really doesn't seem to be anyone else, is there? May be that Clinton will run this clinton from behind. That Clinton will have to be reined in if this Clinton has to have a good chance.
jalebi_bhai Posted January 31, 2015 Posted January 31, 2015 why? Read up on her activities, and the people she associated with during her early twenties. She's a well disguised radical nutjob. Her winning the elections will be detrimental to Indo-US ties, especially with the current BJP govt.
aceofbase Posted January 31, 2015 Posted January 31, 2015 Hillary can only be defeated by a young and fresh face in the GOP...someone like marco rubio or .christie ..If it is older guys nominated by GOP like bush or huckabee , then she would nail them..
