Financial Times: Battle of Bush, Clinton Dynasties Win-Win for America
Breitbart's Big Journalism ^ | June 9, 2014 | Tony Lee

Posted on 06/10/2014 5:33:51 AM PDT by Bratch

A column in the paper of record for the globalist "Party of Davos" argues that a Hillary Clinton vs. Jeb Bush battle for the White House in 2016 will be a win-win for America.

Writing in the Financial Times, Ed Luce notes that "as wealth is concentrated in fewer hands, so too is political capital" and "the problem with plutocracy is that it is unmeritocratic."

However, he argues, Bush and Clinton are "by far their party’s most qualified candidates" and "both deserve their nominations on merit" because each has "made at least as strong a case against the new age of inherited wealth as their peers."

A Jeb Bush nomination would be the final nail in the Republican Party.

If Herself, Madame Benghazi, the Cold & Joyless, is to be considered to be among “the most qualified candidates”, then what about the more than 300 million other residents in that territory once known as “the United States of America”? Have they become chopped liver?

Hate to say it, but Dianne Feinstein (D-Mexico City) is probably a more focused and attentive person to be placed in this position than Herself. For one thing, DiFi has the moral fortitude to get at least a little enraged at the shenanigans of the Current Occupant now squatting in the White Hut. But she has little else to recommend her, being anti-gun and pro-amnesty in a big way.

But hey, if you want a highly qualified female running for the Presidency of the United States, then there are several state governors of the female gender that have relevant experience: Jan Brewer, Susana Martinez, Mary Fallin and Nikki Haley. They also, incidentally, are all Republican, and relatively conservative Republicans at that.

So THAT for Jeb Bush. Nice guy and all, and certainly pretty savvy on most aspects of dividing up chores of government into manageable increments and fulfilling the technical duties of the office, but with no clear idea of the great ideals that should be forefront and clearly enunciated to the public, a restoration of the American Dream.

We have an aristocracy as colorless,unattractive and dull as linoleum.

Our country has devolved from the genius and color of the early revolutionaries to the orthodoxy and gloom of grim Cromwells writing edicts to enforce self righteous correctness.

Well they are both fine candidates...if the goal is to have the country continue to careen toward debauchery, immorality and financial ruin. They’re both perfect!

Oh, okay, well that settles it then. I shall stop hatin’ on Jeb and go all out for him just to improve our economy. That’s all that matters, right?
