He admitted it must seem far-fetched. In fact, John Phillips kiddingly said he may need to “blow into a breathalyzer, take a drug test and get psychologically evaluated.”
But the CNN commentator attempted to make a serious argument that “radical congresswoman” Maxine Waters could be the Democratic nominee for president in 2020, in an opinion piece published Wednesday in the Orange County Register and L.A. Daily News....

Wow. Imagine a Democratic presidential race in 2020 with Fauxahontas, Hillary, Comrade Bernie, Uncle Joe and then top it off with Mad Maxine. That wouldn’t be a race for Democratic nomination. That would be a freak show of epic proportions!
I thought she would be playing James Brown on the walking dead??
I’d love for her to run. She is famous for being stupid and cutting her and her party’s throat. She has said or done:
“This liberal would be about socializing … uh, umm. … Would be about, basically, taking over, and the government running all of your companies.”
“After the health care bill was signed in April 2010, Waters denounced flag-waving at a Tea Party rally.”
“As a senior member of the House Financial Services Committee, Waters played a key role in allowing Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac’s reckless actions that led to the housing meltdown. Here is Waters, at a 2004 congressional hearing, (and yes, that is the same “Frank” Raines that vastly overstated Fannie Mae’s earnings in order to receive $90 million in bonuses). “We do not have a crisis at Freddie Mac, and particularly Fannie Mae, under the outstanding leadership of Frank Raines.”
“Policy, for the most part, has been made by white people in America, not by people of color. And they have tended to take care of those things that they think are important. Whether it’s their agricultural subsidies, or other kinds of expenditures that are certainly not expenditures for poor people or for people of color. And so we have to band together and keep fighting back.”
With the financial crisis looming, Waters was mostly worried about a bank that her husband had a financial stake in. Here, she admits that she contacted the Treasury Department on behalf of OneUnited Bank officials, actions which prompted a congressional ethics probe: “I followed up on the association’s request by asking Treasury Secretary Paulson to schedule such a meeting.”
She is a political suicide en-route.

Doesn’t really roll off the tongue, but there it is.
Please, please, please....
Amen! Let’s get it all out there! You out rock Bernie! LOL
The fact that this could even be seriously considered shows just how fat down the rabbit hole the Dems have gone.
...I might use some of my tax cut money as a donation...
Is that the tax cut money Democrats want to reach into your pocket and take?
Run, Maxipad, Run! ...
And the dems are racist if they don’t choose her! Racist, I say!
She could also be something a person scrapes off the bottom of their shoe when crossing a lawn without looking down.
God I hope cnn is right about this.
****It would be like the 3-stooges going up against Einstein in a physics debate****
Einstein: Energy equals matter times velocity squared.
Three Stooges: Yea, and it sounds like this, woop, woop, woop, woop, woop.
anything is possible.
Bigot Al Sharpton ran for the Democrat presidential nomination one year and his overt and documented racism never came up.
Marxine Waters. Ask her to expand upon her comment that she would nationalize/socialize industries in America and eliminate competition.
What about re-registering as a Democrat to vote for her in the primary? LOL /just kidding ... sort of
then she can hire Obama to head up the INS
