How to bring back Bill
A Clinton-Clinton 2008 ticket is constitutionally possible.
WASHINGTON, D.C., AND MADISON, N.J. – Americans are nostalgic for the 1990s. They long for a time when terrorism was perceived as a problem confined to foreign lands and when the stock market's rise seemed unstoppable. And, it turns out, many of them miss former President Bill Clinton.
In a recent poll conducted for CNN, respondents favored Mr. Clinton over President Bush on a variety of issues, including policy areas traditionally viewed as GOP strongholds. By a wide margin, those surveyed indicated that Clinton did a better job managing the economy and handling foreign affairs and taxes.
Clinton's resurgent popularity, and Democrats' difficulties in taking over the White House in recent years, might counsel a bold strategy for 2008. Whoever is selected as the Democratic nominee for the next presidential race should consider William Jefferson Clinton as a candidate for vice president.

Of course this scenario is impossible. A vice presidential candidate must be elgible to serve as president. Bill Clinton is no longer elgible to serve as president.
It might be another reason Sandy Burglar did his deed.
If it's tried, we'll have a hell of a fight to battle.
How can we miss him if he won't go away?
"Whoever is selected as the Democratic nominee for the next presidential race should consider William Jefferson Clinton as a candidate for vice president..."
This is obviously an example of pandering to fools, inasmuch as Bill Clinton would not qualify for Vice President.
This is based on precisely the kind of sophistic parsing of language that Bill Clinton trully loves. It depends on what the meaning of "is elected" is.
Stopped reading right there.

Anyway, I for one was tired of seeing the U.S.A. being slapped around by a bunch of piss ant thugs. That's partly why I voted for Mr. Bush in '00 and again in '04 (he said what he was going to do and he did it... no gray area, only black & white).
I don't want to see the do-nothing, take from the "rich" give to the poor, do-as-I-say-not-as-I-do limo liberals in power ever again.
Wishful thinking, but not true.
Where is the double barf alert?
Biased, Tarpit-Bound Media Reporters are nostalgic for the 1990s...
There. Fixed it.
Exactly!
I wish people would stop saying it's possible .. it's NOT possible.
Thank goodness for the 22nd Amendment.
I wonder if Clinton and OJ Simpson play golf
as the "jailbird duo"..laughing all overf the course...
both beat the system...the lowlifes...Jake
When are people going to realize that presidents dont "manage" the economy?!? this isnt a totalitarian state. economies do better when politicians stay out of it, and that's exactly why our economy has been doing better and better these past few years. aside from wars, tax cuts and subsidies, presidents dont have as much pull on the economy as most would like to think.
