We need 30 liberals to run.
I am running for President as a Independent Progressive Socialist Democrat. Otherwise known as the End Climate Change, Kill Your Babies, and legalize Crack Party.

Make a good VP or SOS. Secretary of State, maybe. But he adds absolutely nothing to the ticket to justify a VP spot.

Pro-same sex marriage Bolton? Condi with a mustache? Good on foreign policy, not so much on social issues.

Actually, I would much prefer that John Bolton ran for a cabinet office. There are at least a dozen major government agencies that need profound attitude adjustments, and he would seem to be the right man for the job.

Bolton won’t be getting enough votes to make a difference.

I doubt it as well, but these guys don’t have to get many votes to impact the nomination process. You get ten guys pulling down 3% and it makes a big difference.

>>

When people were floating do-nothing hack John Thune as Presidential material in 2012, I thought it would be fun for Bolton to run and get some revenge for Thune destroying his Ambassadorship career by going after Thune in the Presidential primaries. Still, even in 2012, Bolton wouldn't have likely won any primaries.
In 2016, Bolton is a non-starter, especially given his caving on gay marriage. Still, I hope he returns to foreign policy in a future Republican administration.
>> Condi with a mustache? Good on foreign policy, not so much on social issues. <<
The difference is that Condi sucks on foreign policy as well as social issues. She was a lousy SOS, whereas Bolton would likely be a good one, just as he was a solid UN Ambassador. Nobody would be talking about Condi if she weren't a black female, as much as some "conservatives" continue to deny that fact.

I think Bolton has his head screwed on straight when it comes to foreign policy, though like you I suspect I might have some problems with his other outlooks.
Rice outed herself for me urging restraint from Israel every time a terrorist attack took place. One wonders how much restraint she would urge if it was her family members being blown to bits.
Ahh, but those family members would be Black not Jewish. My mistake. /s

So Bolton’s big announcement is, he’s NOT running. At least he didn’t say he’s taking his talents to South Beach.
In other news, Vanilla Ice isn’t running and I’m not running either.
