Who would you prefer, Bush or McCain?

McCain fer crissake.

Either without Rove.

McCaine is not as much of a known quantity.
I never liked the Bushes; when Reagan selected Bush,
I said it was a mistake. I am a Goldwater Republican.
Neither Bush Sr nor Jr cares much for the Originalist pro-freedom filosofy.
Goldwater = Conservative Originalism = personal freedom
= government is only a little sparrow fart in the background of life.

Unhappily, I 'd vote for Bush again against McCain.

I 'd rather vote for Governor Sarah Palin for President.

Isent this a would you rather cut your neck with a sharp knife or a dull knife type question?

I never beat my wife in the first place Mr. Smart.

Your question can't be answered because it would take a constitutional amendment to provide a possible third term for George W. Bush.

Perhaps a different question could be: would you vote for such a constitutional amendment to void the 22nd amendment:

“ Section 1. No person shall be elected to the office of the President more than twice, and no person who has held the office of President, or acted as President, for more than two years of a term to which some other person was elected President shall be elected to the office of the President more than once. But this article shall not apply to any person holding the office of President when this article was proposed by the Congress, and shall not prevent any person who may be holding the office of President, or acting as President, during the term within which this article becomes operative from holding the office of President or acting as President during the remainder of such term.
Section 2. This article shall be inoperative unless it shall have been ratified as an amendment to the Constitution by the legislatures of three-fourths of the several States within seven years from the date of its submission to the States by the Congress.

McCain.

I have never shot myself in the foot, and I'm not going to start now.

As long as we're doing theoritical presidential desires, here is my list (with some additions).

B. Clinton
H. Clinton
Gore
Kerry
McCain
Obama
Bush 41
Bush 43

This is really a very tough question. Six months ago, McCain was the obvious choice of the two. I'd even go further to say that McCain was clearly the best pick in the Republican primaries. Since then, McCain has sold his integrity for some electoral votes and Bush has moved towards Obama's positions in negotiating with Iran and expressing a willingness to end our involvement in Iraq although it may be a few years still. It seems this newly humble Bush is finally getting the message that some of his policies are not viewed by the US public or the world at large as beneficial while McCain is morphing into a more extreme version of Bush.

Today, I'd have to pick Bush.
