If there were no 22nd amendment
Wouldn't it be nice to have bush as the gop nominee? Would he even get his parties nomination? In typical republican fashion, they pushed for the 22nd because they hated Roosevelt then the first president who could have been elected a third time, Eisenhower, was a republican.

3. Don't Even Make That Notion
Dick(head) Cheney will begin grinning funny because he caught a good idea. In all reality Bush would get the nod strictly because of the power his family holds.

5. Yep. They'd nominate Bush again....
and Bush would "win" a 3rd term, just like he "won" 2000 and "won" 2004...

9. Bush is only part of the problem - any figurehead
w/ the same powers behind him would be equally bad
