Why don't Americans want Jeb Bush to be President?
Americans mostly don't want him because he isn't a very good candidate.He is the brother of a former President whose legacy could charitably called "mixed" and should more properly called "a disaster." Despite trying to convince voters that he's his own man, his advisors are largely drawn from a collection of his brother's administration, which suggests that some of the more tragic mistakes of that administration could be repeated.He lacks the affable charm that his brother possessed. He comes of as disconnected and pompous.Despite his reputation as being "the smarter brother", he doesn't act like it. As a for instance, during one of the GOP debates, he tried to corner Rubio on his record of not showing up for Senate votes. Rubio was completely ready for it, and his response caught Bush completely by surprise. Bush looked like he had been struck in the face. It is like he never considered that anyone would fight back.Two Bushes really are probably enough. People mistrust political dynasties.Perhaps most importantly, he's a relic from a Republican party which no longer exists. The days of the "compassionate conservative" are over. The days of a Republican who supports immigration reform are over. Bush isn't a moderate by any means, but he stands to the left of most Republican candidates, and there is only space for candidates on the right.
No one can be President of the USA unless they have had prior relevant experience, which is required to impress the US voters. True or false?
(1) US Vice President eg. Lyndon B. Johnson, Richard M. Nixon and George HW Bush (2) US Senator eg. JFK and Barack Obama (3) US Governor eg. Bill Clinton and George W. Bush (4) Military top brass eg. George Washington, Ulysses Grant, Theodore Roosevelt, and Dwight D. Eisenhower (5) Captains of industry and the Moguls on Wall Street eg. Nelson Rockefeller and Donald Trump. Therefore, unless you belong to one of the aforementioned there is practically no chance at all that the American people would ever support you to be President of the United States. By hook or by crook, you still need to have an impressive track record to be accepted by the US voters. So who do you think you are kidding? Are you ignorant or plain stupid? Are you mentally retarded?
Why did Clinton and the democrates lie to President Bush?
Are you serious when you ask about Clinton lying? Isn't this the same Clinton who said."I never had sex with that woman?" Is this the same Clinton who had information on Moussauri, one of the suspected hijackers on 9/11, but advised that the FBI hold off on examining his laptop? (Reported on Time Magazines website) The same Clinton who had Osama Bin Laden in his sights but told intelligence not to go through with the plan on capturing him? Didn't the Democrats sanction the war in Iraq and now lie about that too? Clinton's own intelligence told him about a possibility of attack on our soil utilizing our own airliners, but he continued to undermine the intelligence agencies and emasculate the military. And you wonder if he, and the Dems would lie about anything else?
Can a former President serve as Vice-President?
Yes, but there are still requirements. The Vice President must have all the same requirements as the President to be the POTUS and VPOTUS. The Vice President does not have a term limit, but the President does.As per the GREAT HOLY CONSTITUTION OF THE UNITED STATES, the candidate must…Be at least 35 years of ageBe either born in the United States or have at least one parents with American citizenshipHave lived in the United States for a collective 14 yearsHave not already served more than 8-10 years as PresidentNot be kicked out of a previous officeNot be a sympathizer of the Confederate States Army (pretty sure that one doesn't matter anymore)All of those just stated above are the same requirements shared by a candidate for President, and a candidate for Vice President.This is was actually in consideration before, as Former President Gerald Ford was under consideration to be Vice President under Ronald Reagan in the presidential election of 1980. Ultimately, Reagan chose George H. W. Bush, probably for the better. Gerald Ford had only served as President for about 2.5 years until he was kicked out by Carter. Nothing in the constitution says he wasn't allowed to serve as Vice President except for the 22nd Amendment, which Ford was not restricted by
Why is it that for 16 years no one in the Bush or Obama administration was forced to resign because of allegations of abuse, but now there have been many resignations under the Trump administration in one year?
Trump is a businessman.Bush and Obama were politicians.Businessmen have to fire quickly if they want great results.Politicians do not. Ever.Bush had a failing Secretary of Defense in Rumsfeld, a failing strategy in Iraq and after 5000 deaths and four years or so, he decided it might be time to change, but no hurry.Obama appointed a Secretary of State that had, at best, a checkered history of integrity. She amped up that position into a pay-for-play scheme like we’ve never seen before. Harry Reid, who parlayed his Senatorial position into $15M of net worth looks like an amateur compared to the Clintons. Her net worth soared to over $250M. Whatever you think about Benghazi, there is no doubt it was a disaster that Hillary lied about.Obama knew Anthony Weiner had problems that could send him to prison, but no worries.Obama could have had a serial murderer in his cabinet and no resignation because the press would have covered for him.He’s brilliant, right? Yet he thought the US had 57 states and that Austrians spoke Austrian.He’s a great family man, right? Except there were lots of allegations and men that came forward to state that he swings from both sides of the bat.He’s upstanding, right? But he knew you wouldn’t be able to keep your doctor, but profferred the lie right up until the ACA bill passed.Why is this no big deal? Because CNN tells you its no big deal. CNN is the default station in most airports, gyms, dry cleaners and hotels.It’s well known in psychology that if people hear a lie over and over, they’ll believe it.If CNN started the meme that we’re running out of oxygen, and you choose to watch it, you would start shopping for oxygen machines.https://www.wired.com/2017/02/do...
Which US presidents were not born in the United States?
From what I know, the Constitution allows a candidate for President to have at least one parent who is an American Citizen. They can be born in France, and as long as one of their parents are American citizens at the time of their birth, they can run for President.I believe Martin Van Buren was the first U.S President born in the country of the United States. Ironically, his first language was Dutch, not English. All of his predecessors plus his successor were born in the territory of the United States, but the land was owned by Britain at that time and the country of the United States had not been established by thenGeorge Washington was born in the territory known as Virginia, part of British America, which were the colonies reigned by Britain the U.S was not established by then.John Adams was born in the territory Massachusetts, also part of British America.For Thomas Jefferson, see George WashingtonFor James Madison, see Thomas JeffersonFor James Monroe, see James MadisonFor John Quincy Adams, see John AdamsAndrew Jackson was born somewhere between South Carolina and North Carolina, the territory being owned by BritainMartin Van Buren was the first American born to be president, having been born in Kinderhook, New YorkFor William Henry Harrison, see James MonroeOtherwise, no president has been born outside of the land that is part of the United States, but many candidates for president have been born outside of the United States.Ted Cruz sought out the Republican Nomination in 2016, but lost the nomination to Donald Trump. His parents were both American Citizens, but he was born in Calgary, Canada.John McCain was the Republican Nominee in 2008. Both his parents were American Citizens, and he was born in a military base (I think) in the Panama Canal - which was U.S. territory at the time (idk if it still is)George Romney sought out the Republican nomination in 1968, but lost to Richard Nixon. He was born in Mexico, and his parents were American citizens, allowing him to run for President. He is also the father of 2012 Republican Nominee and Former Governor of Massachusetts Mitt RomneyOh and don’t forget, Barack Obama was born in Kenya :)
