If the great depression hits but there are improvements in the foreign policy arena,

[Skwmom]

what do you think the 2012 presidential race will look like?

1. Under those circumstances, and if Obama has shown he has a vision to solve it

I doubt that many would be willing to change Presidents in the midst of a depression.

Our party wont oppose his nomination, and the GOP might throw up someone stupid and unimportant like Palin to be the sacrificial lamb.

5. They certainly had no qualms about changing Hoover

for Roosevelt.

2. I think you'll see Obama win again

The difference is that Obama will actually do something about it, rather than pull a Hoover. Plus, I don't think we'll see a "Great Depression," per se, rather, we'll just see a deflated economy.

3. It will look like another 4 years of President Obama.

4. You must forgive the OP

in some cases hatred blinds a person to all things.

Including light.

It's really sad.
