If you were to nominate ONE DUer for president, who would it be?

[Tiggeroshii]

:shrug:

[Occam Bandage]

1. The Magistrate. nt

[NYC Liberal]

3. I think The Magistrate should be Chief Justice.

Skinner for president!

[Occam Bandage]

8. For all I know, he's John Paul Stevens in real life. nt

[NYC Liberal]

16. Has he ever posted while JPS was seen outside in public?

:think:

[Antennas]

48. You know, I've lurked here awhile.

And your name, Mr. Occam, was one of the first that came to mind when I read this thread.

[jobycom]

6. He'd have to choose a real pitt bull for a VP.

To overcome that whole nice act thing he's got going. :)

[Rowdyboy]

17. Seconded........nt

[LynnTheDem]

2. babylonsister and Hissyspit.

Beauty, brains, compassion. What a duo they'd be!


Yes I know you said "one". :D

[blm]

68. solid choices - but, it's a certainty Octafiish would OPEN THE BOOKS and know where to start.

but I do loves me the babysis and Hissy.

[Tiggeroshii]

4. Skinner n/t

[jobycom]

7. No points for sucking up.

:rofl:

[Tiggeroshii]

12. lol

Well, I figure executive experience...

[Divine Discontent]

55. there's too many skeletons & questionable decisions with THAT ONE, we'd lose 70/30.

:rofl: I'm just trying to knock down the major competition against Nance Greggs, as he's probably the "Clinton machine" we'd have to face in '16.

[CaliforniaPeggy]

5. How on earth can I pick just ONE?

A couple (at least) come to mind!

NanceGreggs

WCGreen

:woohoo:

[Divine Discontent]

56. CP, you'd certainly get ambassador to the UN or SOS! :) eom

[bitchkitty]

9. Judi Lynn and Peace Patriot. Alpha Centauri would have to be on the ticket too. n/t

[Chichiri]

10. Myself.

n/t

[jobycom]

11. California Peggy, of course. She's already won the vote for "Greatest Thing about DU"

and that was in her first term!

[CaliforniaPeggy]

19. My dear jobycom!

You remembered! What a sweetheart! Thank you...

I bookmarked that thread, I was so touched by it...

:hug:

:loveya:

[rwheeler31]

13. Not going there

[Bread and Circus]

14. I'd nominate Prosense for press secretary or communications director...

and NanceGreggs as senior political advisor.

Occam Bandage for Secretary of State.

Grantcart for SecDef.

This is fun.... I might add to the list later if I can think of some more folks...

[MadBadger]

22. I think Grantcart should be a senior advisor who serves as chief strategist for the campaign

He's Axe

[ecstatic]

15. the first person on DU to publicly express support for Obama for President

Whoever expressed that and believed Obama could win in 2008 has the right mix of optimism and wisdom, IMO.

[NYC Liberal]

20. Earliest I could find:

http://www.democraticunderground.com/discuss/duboard.php?az=show_topic&forum=104&topic_id=2085510

[ecstatic]

25. Good find, and kind of odd since Kerry was running

and that was supposed to last from 2004-2012.

Paging BeHereNow!! What did you know and when did you know it??!!!

[NYC Liberal]

26. Found one from March 2004!

http://www.democraticunderground.com/discuss/duboard.php?az=show_mesg&forum=104&topic_id=1245626&mesg_id=1245694

[Hippo_Tron]

32. Dupe n/t

[geek tragedy]

[Sarah Ibarruri]

18. Oh my gosh there are so many!!! DU people are fabulosos! nt

[Nye Bevan]

21. Grovelbot

Unparalleled fundraising skills.

Ability to participate in even the most controversial discussions without annoying anyone.

Appears not to require sleep.

And I think the American people are ready for an injected-plastic president.

[Number23]

40. Happily seconded! Grovelbot does more for DU than anyone

Polite, well-spoken, non-controversial, he's cute as a button and I've never ONE time seen him start an annoying popularity thread... :)

[Cobalt-60]

49. Govelbot for President!

He's the One!

[cbayer]

23. Muriel Volestrangler. He has the temperment, wisdom and judgement for the job. nt.

[Change has come]

24. CatWoman!

[youthere]

65. I second that. CatWoman 2016!!!

[mshasta]

27. my self.

:evilgrin:

[silverojo]

28. Nance Rants

Sorry, I forgot if that's her user name, but that's her journal. And it's awesome!

[crossroads]

79. Nance is awesome!

[Indiana_Dem]

29. Either Frenchiecat or grantcart!

[all.of.me]

61. Or kpete! How about all three somehow?! nt

[crossroads]

80. FrenchieCat!

There are so many worthy members here on DU, but FrenchieCat worked the MSN lines like no other imo... relentless in efforts to get Obama in the WH!
Thank you FrenchieCat!:toast:
CR

[leftstreet]

31. SLAD / Octafish 2012

Talk about an informed citizenry!

:thumbsup:

[Hippo_Tron]

33. I think it goes without saying... Wetzelbill/Kurovski 2016

I mean, they've already promised me several jobs in their administration so it would be foolish to support anybody else.

[myrna minx]

74. They get my vote too. I'm looking forward to being appointed to the new cabinet position

of "Keeping it Real". :rofl:

[Kurovski]

81. But what possible use will we have for President Bill Clinton's periodical collection

of "girlies what ain't got no clothes"? :shrug:

I suppose President Wetzelbill might move to open a national library of some sort.

[Hamlette]

34. Catwoman....duh

[JanusAscending]

35. With out a doubt....

H20Man !! For his sage wisdom and knowledge of all things Historical, and political. He's a "cool dude" like Obama.:yourock: :applause: :applause: :applause:

[NYC_SKP]

36. Perry Logan!

On the new third party ticket, "Whack Job Party" :party:

[PresidentObama]

41. Tellurian n/t

[snowbear]

43. You are joking..... right?

Tellurian!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?

[PresidentObama]

45. Tellurian was the one who outted me as a mole on a PUMA board.

Tellurian is still an idiot, BTW.

[NYC_SKP]

71. A certain number of former DUers joined a new party....

The "Pity Party"! :rofl:

Hey, larissa! :hi:

[anonymous171]

50. It's either LulaMay or nothing you silly Loganite!

[BlooInBloo]

37. Me.

[Unsane]

38. Unsane

[Borgnine]

42. Any lurking Freeper.

That way we can easily crush them in the General Election.

[Tiggeroshii]

44. They are kinda like DUers, huh?

Sort of part of the family. Like the crazy uncle nobody likes?

[Borgnine]

52. More like the family member no one talks about...

...that lives in the cellar and is fed fish heads in a bucket once a night.

[Tiggeroshii]

53. lol

maybe he's not even a family member, he just sorta came...

[bridgit]

46. Deleted Sub-thread, that DUer really seems to get around

[Tiggeroshii]

51. hm?

[all.of.me]

63. lol

[Divine Discontent]

54. outside of me :)

no question, bar none - Nance Greggs...

maybe I can play second fiddle to her. Nance are you up for it? We'll have 2016 locked up by mid Oct. against the Jindal/Crist ticket because I'll out Crist in my VP debate - I'm vicious like that... no closeted guy is gonna take this gay boys VP spot playing like he's straight! His 'marriage' still on? :rofl:

[RFKHumphreyObama]

57. Elizabeth Edwards

[Tiggeroshii]

58. I remember she might have been here

...thats a good one =)

[Glenda]

59. HughMoran

Because of his name, he would already get the 28% Bush-approvers. However, in reality he does not reach across the aisle

Then Deleted Subthread for VP, as someone already mentioned.

[FloridaGrl]

66. I second this

because I just love the name. It gives me a chuckle all the time and I do not approve of bush :P

[blondeatlast]

60. H2OMan. And no other. Much as I love so many DUers, only one earns my trust even when I don't agree

with him.

I didn't even have to think about my answer when I saw this thread.

EditL\: TahitiNut, for much the same reasons plus "color" (much like what Joe Biden brought to the ticket) would be my choice for Veep.

I'll always hold a special place in my heart for Wetzelbill/Kurovski, though for sheer pluck!

[Bluenorthwest]

69. H2OMan, yes

And if he will not run, he must take a role as senior advisor. Agree or not, he's got the stuff to lead, and the facts to back him up.

[Frosty1]

75. Without a doubt H20Man

:thumbsup:

[tishaLA]

86. first one who came to my mind.

[secondwind]

62. NanceGreggs or, in the alternative, FRENCHIECAT!!

[WinkyDink]

64. Me.

[wyldwolf]

67. whoever it is, just appoint me Chief of Staff

[greguganus]

70. Operation Mind Crime. His Speeches Would Be In All Caps And Would Never Be Boring. N/t

[Political Heretic]

85. OMC for Labor Secretary! Get shit done! :)

[rvablue]

72. Blue in AK.....the DUer with the closest temperment to Obama!

[Boudica the Lyoness]

73. Skittles for Sec of Defense

because she can kick arse.

[951-Riverside]

76. Elizabeth Edwards n/t

[lumberjack_jeff]

77. Ozymandius. We need someone who understands money n' stuff.

:hi:

[CatWoman]

78. the one and only

H2O MAN

:woohoo:

[AspenRose]

84. +1

(sorry Wetzelbill) ;-)

[Kurovski]

82. My heart goes with Wetzelbill...

but what's left of my mind says "Waterman's the one".

[Political Heretic]

83. President NanceGreggs, VP Frenchie Cat, Attorney General The Magistrate, Sec of State Az

...anyone remember Az? He was the most level headed guy I think I've ever talked with over the internet.
