America - A Monarchy?
According to the Cheney's, Laura Bush should take a crack at the White House in 2008. Appearing on Larry King Live, Lynne Cheney indicated that all the speculation about Hillary Clinton running in 2008 is moot since Laura Bush would clean her clock. Cheney went onto to say if we want a Bush dynasty, let's get Laura to run.
Now, here is the rub. George W. Bush (not a big fan), regardless of what you think of him, had some political experience. He was the Governor of Texas - which has a GDP larger than many countries. Hillary Clinton, regardless of what you think of her, is a New York Senator and a member of Senate Armed Services Committee.
Laura Bush may have babysat George a few times, but she is by no means ready to lead the world's largest country. And frankly, Americans would be wise to avoid a Bush dynasty at all costs since the current administration isn't exactly setting the world on fire. On second thought, scratch that, they are.
