Ok .. I am going to act like a Freeper ... Bcoz I have a crazy thought
But join me in some long term projection here ..


I expect Obama to serve 2 terms.. by which time Biden will be too old to be a viable candidate for presidential run...


So should Obama change VP in the 5th year of his presidency in order to groom a successor?

Don't throw rotten tomatoes at me -- I love Joe Biden.

1. breathe and slow down, it's early
there's no way of guessing about what will happen in 4 or 5 years.

2. It might happen if Joe isn't planning a run.
It's happened before.

3. Let them get into the WH before we talk about throwing one of them out.

5. It may be someone not even on the scene yet.
After all, who outside of Illinois, heard of Obama 8 years ago?

6. Savor the moment!
There will be plenty of time for political speculation later.

7. One day at a time.
There is enough to deal with today without worrying about something that far in the future.

11. What you have right there is a massive case of HOPE. You're seeing
all sorts of possibilities for the future. You have been set free to wonder and speculate and hope for a bright future for years to come. We're all feeling a little bit giddy today, aren't we?

Now, I expect Biden to be there for the long haul. It doesn't mean you don't love him though just for speculating. :)

12. I thought about that before - Hillary for vp in 4 years!!
That way we get 16 years of heavy Democratic party rule...and I can retire in peace....

13. Actually, I forsee Biden serving one
term, then Hillary stepping in in 2012.

Though to be honest, I would much prefer to see her on the Supreme Court. Then I could watch millions of freeper skulls explode.
